Unplanned: Tagaytay

Last August 2007, just weeks before I started working... my high school friends Anton, Nescy and I decided to go to Enchanted Kingdom. Anton brought his car, we named "Wicked". They waited for me at the MRT Ayala Station and off we went. But while on the South Luzon Expressway, we all just decided on the spot to go straight to Tagaytay. And because we were all adventurous and unpredictable... goodbye EK, hello Tagaytay.

It was not our first time in the city, but it was definitely a first for us to go there unplanned. We were not even sure where exactly to go.

We first went to People's Park. I think we paid a minimal amount as entrance fee (I think about P10-30 each). The view was awesome. You can see the entire Tagaytay Highlands and of course the famous Taal Volcano. At that time, it was also quite windy, so it was cool. There were also shops on top. And a huge statue of Christ is located at the topmost (similar to the one in Rio). The park is recommended for families as well as friends who seek bonding time and relaxing moments.

After... we ate at a resto also facing the Taal Volcano. The food was good, but we really didn't order a lot since it was not that cheap ... hehehe. There were also many persons along the hi-way that will tempt you for a rare adventure to the Taal Volcano itself. Every 5 meters, there are tourguides along the streets. And since we are adventurous, we gave in to one.

That story would be my next unplanned trip.
