Summer is Here
Summer is here… And get ready with your luggage and we are off to a great summer.
If you are not sure where to go this summer, I’ll share to you my 5 favorite Summer Holiday Locations in the Philippines.
1. Baguio
Rising 1,500 meters above the sea, Baguio City enjoys a relatively cool weather throughout the year. On the average, Baguio is at least eight degrees cooler than any place in the lowlands. Not surprisingly, Baguio has become the “summer capital” of the country.
It is awarded with a variety of cultural, historical and scenic attractions which make it an important and interesting destination. As early as March, tourists and locals take the six-hour trek up the zigzagging Kennon Road. Within a mile of the city, the sweet scent of pine trees and flowers already permeate the air.

Blog Prayer Brigade
Almighty God, bless our nation and make it true to the ideas of freedom and justice and brotherhood for all who make it great.
Bless our land with honourable industry, sound learning, and pure manners. Save us from violence, discord, and confusion; from pride and arrogancy, and from every evil way.
And most especially guide us in choosing the right Presidential candidate to vote in the next election.
Amen
I, Iris Camille Mejia-Acosta, support the cause of the Blog Prayer Brigade for the election of the Future President of the Republic of the Philippines and I do solemnly promise to recite the prayer, which I wrote, in my own convenient time and regularly as possible until the 2010 Presidential Election commences. Let it be written, let it be done.
