Day 10 Repositioning to Laoag

Graye and Mike left last night on an all night eight hour bus trip to Manila.  They needed to catch an early morning flight to Tokyo, then on to either Denver or Seattle.  We had the luxury of another night in Bangued to clean up, then a 5 hour drive to Laoag today.

Also, it is Palm Sunday.  Everyone is bustling around.  Lots of floats are being readied for the parade and lots of "palms" are being created from bamboo shoots,  Beautiful and creative.


Half way we stopped in Vigan for shopping and lunch.  It's known for its well preserved Spanish colonial and Asian architecture.  A great place to shop for Filipino souvenirs and enjoy a meal.

Inside the Jeepney. 5-6 hours on a given day.  A little tough!

A 4:00pm arrival in Laoag, check into the hotel and enjoy a swim in the ocean.  Tomorrow we flight back to Manila, then home.

Good trip, good group, great country.  Final blog tomorrow.
