Random images of The Philippines

My travel bug I believed got stuck with me at the early age of nine when one time my whole family attended an annual church conference near Baguio City.  One morning I just had this thought that I was so close to Baguio and I could not bear to go back home without me going to the city!  I was also dying for some strawberries which at that time is a luxury to kids from my province as we cannot grow strawberry in our region due to the heat. All I had was a few pesos from my butchered piggy bank and a child's capacity or incapacity to fear!

I roamed around the city, back then the place was still safe and quiet. I had a ball while my parents and grand parents were unaware where I was.  I managed to sneak back into the dorm where we stayed before my folks returned from the conference.  But my mother saw the punnets of strawberries.  I had to tell her, you can imagine what I coped after that.  Below are random images of the Philippines:
