Foggy Tagaytay

My plan to check Tagaytay was not fixed, not until last Thursday. It was supposedly a time to experience the Ecopark but since Ayee's friend named Julius who came from Iligan, never been to Tagaytay too, we then decided Tagaytay instead of Ecopark.

So there.. gloomy thursday was a tagaytay day for the three of us. The kaladkarin group (ayee and i) went there at around 1pm right after i visited St. Jude. I thought uulan coz the weather was acting so bad talaga buti when we got to Tagaytay, the weather went fine. It was actually my second time in Tagaytay so i secretly got excited, hehehehe.. the last time was year 2004 pa, and it was a company outing so never got the chance to stroll around the place at that time.. We got there at almost 4pm cause we fetched Julius in Coastal Mall and a little bit of traffic was kinda hindrance as well. We headed directly to Picnic Grove, spend the best time there, seen the taal lake and walk along the place, strolling and have picture moments, nothing special happened only that i got the chance to experience the fresh air and the place as well.me and Ayee @ the bridge walang tatalo sa akintix for Palace in the sky
Before 5:30 hits the clock, we drove to Palace in the sky, which Ayee told me its the highest peak of Tagaytay. The place was so foggy so the entire tagaytay can't be seen clearly, there are moments when we got to see the whole place without the fog, we usually hurried ourselves to take pictures of the scenery. the fog & us
We had experienced the sunset, which was one of the best moments that i had in Tagaytay (yes! i love sunset and sunrise, especially when im at the beach). sunset eto yepeee!
The amazing scenery of that place made me smile a lot, although kinda old but it didnt matter at all. Another great thing that happened was a dog, actually a very cute dog that without second thought, i took pic of (ni hindi man lang ako nagpaalam sa may ari, hehehehehe)wish his mine
Dinner was at Cafe Lupe, the three of us were really starving, my head was aching so badly, the reason why i was so pissed of but i did handle it great naman, ayoko namang idamay sa kamalditahan ko ang two of my companion coz it was not their fault sa gutom ko.. and besides, Ayee was the first one who was really starving, so mas maintindihan pa siguro na sya ang magagalit di ba kesa sa akin... hehehehehe.. at take note sila lang ni Julius ang nagdadrive.. senyoritang Fyrnz!eto na nga!
We ordered sisig, sinigang na hipon, and lumpiang shanghai as our main dish. Honestly, it was one of the best sisig na natikman ko. As usual, Ayee had her diet coke, Julius had his coke, whereas me, had an ice tea.ahem! wag ipagkalat ang lahi ko!
I read couple of times in GT that Bag of Beans shouldn't be missed out when in Tagaytay. Stupid Fyrnz for she forgot to check the site the night before we went to Tagaytay, so it was a hassle time for us for we kept on asking residents there where the place was. Unluckily, most of them didn't know where the place is. So we drove to the other road wishing that we could see the place, but to our dismay, the place and people there dont know either where that place im talking to. Hay, i almost lost my expectation! I called Fayze, who is one of the moderator of GT, hoping that she might know the place --- but nadah! hehehehehe.. she will text me when she got home to check the site.. We stopped for a while just infront of the Taal Vista hotel.. few minutes after we saw Shell station along the way, so we went there, hoping that we could get our luck, it was really good to know that at last, the gasoline boy knew where bag of beans is. It was just 1km after that Taal Vista hotel. Finally, the place that i longed to experienced with was just right there infront of me. And what's good was that i didnt disappoint Julius and Ayee of the place, instead we took lots of pictures of the place. It was indeed, a beautiful-nature-like place. Their Kapeng Barako was superb too and their apple pie. So when you get the chance to get to Tagaytay (as most of my co-GT members will say) try Bag of Beans, im sure you will love the place.At last!
Right after 9pm we decided to go back to Manila, got some buko pie and pineapple on our way home to serve as pasalubong.

And oh before i forget, there's this new place to be developed just on the way to Tagaytay, the Eton City---which was advertised as the Makati of the South. Hmmmm... im looking forward for this place, i got a prediction that this place will bloom in the near future.

That's it for now folks! i will keep you posted on my next adventure!
