we have attended the flower parade in Baguio, the city in the mountains of Luzon, but this year we skipped it because my son is visiting next week so we will go with him to see the sites.
Baguio is high altitude, so it tends ot be cool. We have extended family there, and Lolo actually bought a large plot to build a summer home, but never got around to building it. Squatters are a problem, so we rent it to neighbors, and they grow roses or fruits (strawberries) on the plot and keep the squatters from putting a hut on the land.
becaise of the cool climate, a lot of Japanese students take classes there, especially to learn English. So you see signs in Japanese all over.
Usually we fly visitors to the beaches of Boracay (where a relative owns a guest house) but since my son lives in southern Florida, he wants to see mountains and wants to learn about our organic farms, so a trip to the mountain province is in order.
