Baguio City: Panagbenga Festival 2008 schedule

It's February once again! Aside from Valentine's day, one of the things I look forward to during this month is the celebration of Baguio City's Panagbenga Festival - commonly known as the flower festival of the Philippines.

I certainly hope we can get-away from work for at least 3 days this month to see what Baguio City has prepared for this year. It was too bad that we missed to go there last year, for some reasons I don't remember now..

Thanks btw to my office mate Quick, for sharing with me the schedule for this year, which I'm happy to share with you also.. :)

WOW! Lots to do in Baguio!

My family is from San Jose (Batangas) so I'm embarrassed to say that the only thing I know about Baguio is langonisa! LOL! Is that where Baguio langonisa comes from??

Anyway, it's been a while since we've touched base. Hope all is well in your neck of the woods! xo
