On my previous visits to the Philippines I was only in the capital city of Manila. One time I decided to venture out of Manila to see a couple of popular destinations in the provinces of Cavite and Batangas. The opportunity came when on one of my trips to the Philippines I had to take some things for the husband of one of the Filipina teachers working with me in Bangkok at that time.

Though I have been invited by my friends to visit Tagaytay, for one reason or another, I was not able visit the place. Then, finally, on 15-16 April 2010, an opportunity presented itself. After spending four gruelling days in Manila, I was able to adjust my travel itenerary and had a sidetrip to Tagataytay. Crowded Bus, Plying Heavy Traffic I checked-out from Orchid Garden Suites along Vito Cruz (where I stayed in the last few days) at about 7:30 in the evening. I was suppose to check-out earlier but was delayed because I have to wait for a friend to get the Krispy ... read more
