Last week after the BDJ 2012 Event we hopped to the airport for our trip to Bacolod! We landed past the hour of 6 at the New Bacolod Silay International Airport!
Bacolod City is busy for the upcoming Masskara festival Parade!

highways are filled with these advertisements |
The first thing I noticed since we arrived were the vast fields of sugar cane! Tall green grasses that sometimes smells sweet like sugar and sometimes smells like an 'odd' vinegar! :D

Bacolod is literally miles away from Silay... So we had an unexpected road trip! Speaking of road trips, I've never seen a taxi, not a single cab! The main transportation here were motorcycle also known as Habal-Habal, tricycles that can accomodate up to 20 pax, no kidding! Bus like jeeps and your bare feet! :D

We didn't warm up for the 'walkathon' and so we were shocked but we manage and adjust, I meant adopt the walking in the dusty-rocky dim (because you can only depend for the moon to shine and your trusty flashlight to see where your going at night) earth path which is a stretched 1.5km!

freshly picked Santol! Sweet not Sour! :) |
|
the sweet Marang Fruit! |
Our Pasalubongs includes Piaya in Original and Ube Flavour and Baye-Baye (Espasol Bacolod Style!)
|
perfect with hot coffee! (in my case, hot chocolate!) |
The experience was superb! Imagine I wasn't able to go online for a week! Nevertheless, I enjoy my stay!
this place is very beautiful! i hope to come back here someday!
