Panagbenga 2009, Day 2
Woke-up really early as we are supposed to leave/check-out from the lodge by 6AM so that we can get good images of the Grand Float Parade.One of our group who attended a party the previous night should have been back by 3AM. But he was not around. No word. Not even an SMS. Thus, we called him to know his whereabouts. He said he was in a taxi and already on the way to the lodge. We instructed him to proceed to Mug Cafe, instead, as we already brought his things with us.
Like all plans, it is meant to be broken.
We were supposed to park at The Cathedral. But because of our familiarity with Baguio streets, we saw ourselves at the Baguio Convention Center, instead. Not bad, really, for the floats were near the area. It is where they converge prior to moving to the parade route.
Unlike yesterday, we were able to get close to the floats and come up with good images.
It was agreed to meet up at the car around 10:30AM and we would be on our way to Manila. A good move since once photographers are busy "clicking" their way, they forget the people they were with. Hehehe!
We had our brunch at Chowking, La Union. We also stopped at San Fernando to eat meryenda of Razon's palabok and halo-halo.
What is important about the trip is not the destination, but the journey. On the way back to Manila, jokes and banter was thrown back and forth, also a few golden nuggets of wisdom. c",)
Today is the monthly meeting of our camera club. The theme is "Vanishing Point". Since won't be able to make it, requested a friend to bring my entries...
