sagada trip: day 1 - manila-banaue-bontoc-sagada

note: this is a re-post from my multiply site. i figured it is much better to move all my travel related posts into one blog and this is it. i hope this will help in planning your trip. enjoy!



date of travel: April 2008

just came back from our sagada trip...soooobrang pagod! but worth it naman...we promised ourselves to go back, pero wala ng trekking at caving...tamad mode na lang...hehe...

stop-over at banaue rice terraces
as planned, we took the manila-banaue-bontoc-sagada route in going there...we asked the florida bus line beforehand kung kelan pwedeng magpa-reserve ng tickets...sabi, wednesday daw (friday ang byahe namin) and so, hubby went there on wednesday after office to buy/reserve the tickets...and guess what? 2 tickets na lang ang available at magkahiwalay na seats pa...2pm daw sila nag-open for ticket sales, at naubos na agad...dahil ayaw na namin maghanap pa ng ibang bus at dahil iisa lang din ang byahe ng florida going to banaue, we took the tickets and pray na pumayag makipagpalit yung katabi ko ng upuan para naman magkatabi kami ni hubby...we're lucky, 'coz hindi dumating yung nagpa-reserve na katabi ko...meant to be talaga...hehe =)

sagada itinerary

(sagada map i found in the net, forgot from what site, apologies, if you happen to know from which site this originates, please let me know so that i can acknowledge accordingly)


transportation:

going to sagada, we choose the manila-banaue-bontoc-sagada route (via Florida bus line). para me side trip sa banaue at makapag-picture-picture syempre. we're hoping to get to see other places too if time permits and if there are other groups that we can join to split the cost of hiring a jeep to tour us. going back to manila, we choose the sagada-baguio-manila route (via Victory Liner from baguio) naman para medyo relax na ng konti ang byahe (this according to what i read on the net). if you could reserve tickets, please do, para less hassle.
