Garin Farm Pilgrimage

My second time in Iloilo, I made sure not to miss a trip going to Garin Farm and Pilgrimage. This time, I went with my family and joining with us, was my brother-in-law's family, so, I could say that this trip was more fun! 

Fortunately, the hotel we stayed in offer a package tour which includes going to Garin. We left past 8 in the morning and arrived Garin at almost 10am. But the best I could give you is, try going to Garin at the earliest time possible, maybe around 6am so that you will not be under the scorching heat of the sun just like we do. My husband and daughter wanted to use the 480 steps to reach the top of the so-called 'Stairway to Heaven'. However, because it was really hot at that time, they decided to join us riding the golf cart. It was actually a short cut and we paid P60 going up, and another P90 going down. The cart is good for 4 persons so I guess our payment was just enough for the 4 of us. After Garin, we tour other places in Iloilo, had lunch at their famous Tatoy's Restaurant, visited old churches and historical places but that's for another blog to share :-)

Why It Has To Be Iloilo

Last October 31, 2018, I had the chance to visit Iloilo thru AirAsia with other CDOBloggers. It was my first time to visit the City of Love that I did not even expect to fall in love with ♥

On our second day at the City, we explored Iloilo and got so fascinated at the serenity of the river at Esplanade. We were actually off to see the Church but stopped the jeepney instead, went down and took some pictures of the river, enjoyed some walks and the peacefulness this place brought to passersby.

Never did I thought I would say this but I wish someday I could go back to this place and bring my family with me, to see its beauty and what Iloilo City can offer to people like me who lives in another City :-)
