(Baguio City picture taken from a far, during a not so foggy day)
Baguio tourist spots are popular destinations during summmer. The temperature in Baguio is 8 degrees lower than any area in the lowland that is why tourist flock to Camp John Hay, Burnham Park, La Trinidad, Wright Park, The Mansion, People's Park, Rizal Park, Mines View, Maryknoll Park, and the famous Session Road.

This is one of the must-do whenever you go to Baguio. Burnham is conveniently located near Session Road, a major thoroughfare in Baguio, where nightlife is very active and alive.








The Mansion is the Presidential residence in Baguio City. It's always part of my Baguio tour.











Baguio houses located along the hills. Baguio transient homes abound in the city and can be availed by group tours for reasonable prices.











La Trinidad Benguet vegetable fields. The 'salad bowl' of the country because of fresh veggies that are harvested from this area of the province of Benguet.

          Hate crimes in New York specifically directed towards Asians have become rampant in the past few years. We have heard of random attacks towards Asians inside the subway, in the streets of New York happen in the past two years or so.  Will we ever see the end of it?  What triggers these hate towards Asians?   Last Saturday, the Philippine Consulate General in New York issued an advisory.  Apparently, one Filipino tourist from Cebu was the latest victim of an assault stemming from hatred towards Asians.  This attack happened near the Philippine Center in Manhattan last Wednesday. rappler.com           The consulate posted in its Facebook page that the 18-year old victim who is from Cebu, suffered facial injuries because he was beaten up.  Authorities still can not confirm whether the attack was a random act of violence or an anti-Asian hate crime.         Records have shown that it was the 41st incident that involved a Filipino who was either a victim of a hate crime or an act

I was in Quezon Memorial Circle this afternoon and I chanced upon this mini amusement center currently being constructed inside the big Quezon City landmark.  This new attraction at the QCMC showcases thrilling rides like the Wild Wind.  This is actually like the Space Shuttle of Enchanted Kingdom in Santa Rosa, Laguna.  It is a modified form of the traditional roller-coaster.  There are also rides for the little ones like the usual water bump cars.  And the horror rides which I will dare not ride because I do not have the kind of heart that can withstand intense fear.   While I laud the Quezon City government for this endeavor of providing a small amusement park for the residents of Quezon City so that they do not have to go all the way to Star City or Enchanted Kingdom to be able to experience the different rides, I can't help but feel dismayed over the changes in the scenery inside the memorial.  I frequented the place way, way back when I lived near UP Campus to en
