Visiting San Juan one weekend

This is our trip last Sunday to San Juan, La Union. It is one of the places we like to go for a quick visit.

Back when there were no travel restrictions yet we would do spur of the moment travel, mostly to the beach and La Union is the closest to us.

There is that sense of fulfillment and rejuvenation when you travel to relax and forget even for just a few hours.

A quick escape, a change in scenery. That's what we need to keep us sane. Every day we face concerns and problems and work or any kind of stress that we need to take a break from all that.

So that's what we did.

Our original plan was Vigan but because time is not on our side, we ended up going to San Juan instead. It was mid morning already that time so we can't make it back home that same day if we went to Vigan.

From Baguio bus terminal, we then dropped off San Fernando to check for the schedule of trip going home. We were informed of the time. We have a couple of hours to have lunch in San Juan.

We then took a ride from the the terminal gping to San Juan. We stopped at the area where majority of food shops are. The first one we checked was the place we have been too. Sadly, the food available was not what we wanted.

We then hunted shops up and down the streets and settled in one beside a home stay where we spent one night.

We waited for about 20 minutes before the food was served and was sorely disappointed with the serving. We mainly paid for the rice.

Dissatisfied, we then looked for something else to eat nearby and found one that we liked. Not great but a thousand times better than the previous one.

By the time we were done eating, it's already time to go back home.

Were we satisfied? In terms of food, not much but charge it to experience. At least we get to sea the ocean and smell sea salt air. We liked the rolling landscape along the way.

Life is still beautiful!
