North Tour; Day II. (LAOAG)

Again we woke up early and we have to wait hours before we can go outside and look for a place to eat.

At 7:24AM we went outside and asked manong driver to drop us off to another carenderia. Again after eating, we walked as we go back to the hotel.

By 8:30AM we started preparing, we took a bath, getting our stuff ready. An hour later, we asked Kuya Rommel to fetch us.

First Stop: The Sinking Bell Tower of Laoag. It's located at the center and the busy City of Laoag. Based on Kuya Rommel, there are times that Mama Mary can be found on the top of the Tower.

So we walked a little and we went to St. Williams Parish, we weren't able to have a closer look and the details of the interior of the Church because of the wedding. And instead, we just lit some candles and prayed. Once thing I noticed about Ilocos, There are churches everywhere.

Also, we went to the park in front of Ilocos Norte Capitol and took a picture and rest for couple of minutes.

Second Stop: Sand Dunes of Paoay. This is the most exciting, happiest experience of my life. If you want to experience the 4x4, sand boarding and ATV, prepare 2, 000php and if I heard manong correctly, parang unlimited na sya. But it's not that expensive if you go there with your group. So we tried ATV, so cool. Never tried driving before and I was so happy driving it without falling from it. The route is from the start line and to the beach. We also tried the sand boarding by two and solo. Yay! And take note, sobrang sinwerte pa kami kasi pina-experience samin yung 4x4. Tas ang tarik nya. Katuwa. Pampalubag loob sa kanila, bumili na din ako ng kopya tas hiningi namin yung soft copy.

Next Stop: Malacanang of the North. This place was the second home of the famous Ferdinand Marcos. Sobrang laki, sobrang presko ng lugar since open sya. At the back of the house, you'll have a better view of Paoay Lake. 

And we went home.
