Ang mahabang biyahe sa Ilocos Sur at Ilocos Norte
Noong April 18, 2019, sa kalagitnaan ng tag-init, nagsimula ang aming pamilya ng masayang paglalakbay patungo sa Ilocos Norte. Isang planong inorganisa ng mga kapatid ni Nanay, ito ay isang pagkakataon para masaksihan ang ganda ng mga tanawin at maranasan ang kultura ng Ilocos.

Sa malapit na pagdating namin sa Ilocos Sur, nagpasya kaming huminto saglit para kumuha ng mga litrato at bumisita sa Baluarte Wild Animal Gallery. Subalit, nadismaya ako sa napabayaan na kalagayan ng lugar. Sa kabila ng kaunting hayop at kulang sa pagpapalakad.

Patuloy pa rin kaming naglakbay patungo sa Vigan City. Kahit na mainit ang panahon, hindi ko nai-enjoy ang pagbisita sa mga lumang bahay. Ngunit, nakatagpo kami ng mga kakaibang produkto ng mga taga-Ilocos Sur kagaya ng Bagnet, longganisa, at kalamay na tunay na nakatatak sa alaala.Pagdating ng gabi, nagpatuloy kami sa aming biyahe patungo sa Ilocos Norte.

Sa Laoag City, nagpasya kaming huminto saglit para magpahinga at bisitahin ang kamag-anak ng aking tito. Sa paggising kinabukasan, agad kaming nagtuloy sa Ilocos Norte. Nararamdaman ko na malapit na kami sa aming mga destinasyon dahil sa mga windmills na sumasalubong sa amin malapit sa dagat.

Sa huling araw ng aming paglalakbay, bumisita kami sa Bangui Windmills, kung saan hindi mapapantayan ang ganda ng tanawin.

Sa kabuuan, bagaman naging mapanglaw at mainit ang ilang bahagi ng aming paglalakbay, ang mga karanasan at alaala ay hindi malilimutan. Ang paglalakbay sa Ilocos Norte ay isang pagkakataon upang masilayan ang ganda ng Pilipinas at maranasan ang kultura ng mga taga-roon.

Tumblr media
Cape Bojeador Lighthouse, Burgos, Ilocos Norte. Took this with a GoPro because the camera I had back then didn't have the fisheye effect when capturing in wide angles. If you are a follower on my Instagram, I'm pretty sure it'd be quite obvious to know that I love taking pictures of the sky. To me, nothing beats the calming effect of admiring a beautiful sky no matter what the weather is. A sky can be gray but can still be beautiful if we disregard the fact that it could mean a storm is brewing. As to how it started, I really don't know. I just feel like there's a deep connection between me, and the sky as my symbol of hope. I wrote this as an official entry to my blog because I want it to be meaningful. For someone who's got a lot to share in the near future, I want to remain hopeful as I can be.

Pagtuklas sa Kagandahan ng Ilocos mula sa aming Bakasyon
Taong 2017, buwan ng Abril, ang aking pamilya ay bumisita sa lungsod ng Pagudpud at Vigan bilang bahagi ng aming taunang bakasyon sa tag-init. Nagplano ang aming padre de pamilya na magbakasyon sa mga lugar na ito hindi lamang ako, aking mga kapatid, at magulang ang kasama hindi pati na rin ang aming mga tita, tito, at pinsan sa father side. Una naming pinuntahan ang lungsod ng Ilocos Norte kung saan matatagpuan ang Pagudpud at dinaanan pauwi ang lungsod ng Vigan sa Ilocos Sur. Ang aming bakasyon ay tumagal ng tatlong araw at dalawang gabi, hindi kasama ang araw ng aming pagbiyahe papunta.
Mga pangyayari papunta sa Ilocos Norte
Madaling araw, alas tres ng umaga ng mag-umpisang gumayak ang aming pamilya. Kami ay nagmula sa San Fernando, Pampanga. Dalawang sasakyan ang dinala upang magkasiya, kung saan sa sasakyang minamaneho ng aking ama kami naka-upo nila mama at aking mga kapatid at sa kabilang sasakyang minamaneho naman ng aking tito ang ibang kamag-anak.Β 
Tumblr media
Ang byahe papuntang Pagudpud, kung nakasasakyan, ay nagtatagal ng isang araw o 24 oras at dahil madaling araw kaming bumiyahe ay puro tulog ang nangyari hanggang mag-umaga. Nagkaroon ng ilang stop over sa biyahe upang kumain ng agahan, tanghalian, at hapunan pati na rin ang mga bathroom break. Sa araw ng aming biyahe, bandang mag-uumaga, pagkatapos naming mag-almusal sa isang lugar na marami rin ang nag-stop over, ay dinaanan namin ang Paoay Sand Dunes para manguha ng litrato kasama ang buong pamilya.Β 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(Kuha mula sa google – Guide to the Philippines & The Poor Traveler)
Pagkatapos ay bumalik kami sa byahe at tanghali ng tumigil sa Fort Ilocandia Resort and Casino kung saan inikot namin ang labas dahil sa kasamaang-palad ay hindi bukas ang loob nito. Sa labas kung saan naka-parke ang sasakyan naman kami kumain ng aming tanghalian.
Kami’y muling bumalik sa biyahe at nadaanan ang sikat na Don Mariano Marcos Bridge at Patapat Viaduct Bridge. Pagsapit ng kinagabihan ay huminto kaming muli sa isang tabi ng kalsada kung saan mayroong mga nagtitinda ng mga pagkain upang tikman ang Ilocos Empanada na kilala bilang unang pagkain na dapat tikman dito. Ang aking masasabi sa empanadang ito ay dapat lamang itong matikman ng bawat isa dahil tunay na masarap ito lalo na ang sukang sawsawan.
Tumblr media
(kuha mula sa google)
Bago tuluyang bumiyahe sa lugar na tutuluyan, pinuntahan namin ang Paraiso ni Anton. Paniniwala na ang tubig mula rito ay may kapangyarihang makapagpagaling kung kaya’t naranasan ng aming pamilya na uminom mula rito.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(kuha mula sa google)
Alas-onse ng gabi na kami nakarating sa bahay na aming tutuluyan at diretso agad sa kwarto upang magpahinga at matulog para maging handa kinabukasan.
Unang araw sa Pagudpud, Ilocos Norte
Kinabukasan, bago mag-umpisa ang aming paglilibot sa lugar ay naligo muna kami sa isang batis na nagkataong malapit sa bahay na aming tinutuluyan. Bilang mga bata ay kasiyahan namin ang paliligo sa mga ganoong klase lugar sa unang pagkakataon kung kaya’t tumatak ito sa aking isipan.Β 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Pagkatapos nito ay diretso kami sa unang destinasyon, ang Saud White Sand Beach. Nagtagal kami dito ng kalahating araw, dito kami kumain ng tanghalian na dala namin at naligo. Ito ang unang pagkakataong natuto akong mag-floating.
Tumblr media
(kuha sa mula sa google)
Sumunod na pinuntahan namin pagkatapos ng beach ay ang Cape Bojeador Lighthouse.
Tumblr media Tumblr media
Ang lokasyon ng lighthouse ay nasa isang tuktok na hindi maaaring umakyat mismo ang mga sasakyan. Kung kaya’t ang sasakyan namin ay iniwan sa ibaba nito kung saan mayroon ding mga nagtitinda ng souvenirs. Inakyat naimin ito hanggang marating ang tuktok kung nasaan ang lighthouse. Pumasok kami rito at nakita ang iba’t ibang klase ng mga litrato at historya ng lighthouse na ito. Mayroon din sa loob nito na isang well na hinuhulugan ng mga barya.
Tumblr media
(kuha mula sa google)
Ito ang huling destinasyon namin bago nagpahinga para sa araw na iyon.
Pangalawang araw sa Ilocos, Norte
Sa bawat paglalakbay naming pamilya ay sinisigurado nila na makakabili ng mga souvenirs kung kaya’t pagkatapos sa tabing dagat ay pumunta kami sa Burgos, Ilocos Norte kung saan matatagpuan ang Kapurpurawan Rock Formation. Bago makapasok at makita mismo ang rock formation na ito ay mayroong mga stalls na nagtitinda ng iba’t ibang klase ng souvenirs gaya ng magnet sa refrigerator, mga windmills wooden sculpture, at iba pa kung saan kami namili.
Tumblr media
(kuha mula sa google)
Pagkatapos namin dito ay aming dinaanan ang Bangui Windmills upang makita ang mga windmills ng malapitan.
Tumblr media
(kuha mula sa google – Guide to the Philippines)
Ikatlong araw sa Ilocos, Sur
Dumating na ang huling araw ng aming bakasyon sa Ilocos. Sa araw na ito, ang aming destinasyon ay ang Ilocos Sur bago kami umuwi sa San Fernando.
Ang unang pinuntahan namin ay ang Paoay Church. Pumasok kami rito at nagdasal bago nilibot ang mga nakapaligid dito na tanawin.Β 
Tumblr media Tumblr media
(kuha mula sa google)
Pagkatapos sa Paoay Church ay pumunta na kami sa huling destinasyon na aming bakasyon, ang Vigan Heritage Site at Calle Crisologo. Inikot namin ito at bumili ng mga gamit gaya ng bag at mga laruan. Bumili rin kami ng sorbetes na tinitinda dito bago nag-ikot.
Tumblr media
(kuha mula sa google)
Mga dapat malaman mula sa karanasan ng aking pamilya sa biyaheng ito
Sa sobrang tagal ng oras sa biyahe gamit ang sasakyan ay mararamdaman mo talaga ang ngawit sa pag-upo at hirap sa pagtayo. Kapag nakalabas ka ng sasakyan, ramdam na ramdam mo ang ginhawa at mapapa-thank you, Lord ka na lang dahil sa sarap sa pakiramdam. Siguraduhin dapat na kumpleto ang dalang gamit para sa isang araw na biyahe. (1) Ang mga baon na pagkain na maaaring kainin sa loob ng sasakyan. (2) Hygiene kit na gamit para kung matatawag ng kalikasan.Β 
Normal na maraming beses mag-stop over sa buong biyahe dahil nga sa ngawit mula sa pag-upo. May pagod at antok talagang madadama, kaya importante rin na hindi lang isa ang marunong magmaneho dahil kakailanganin niya ng kapalit para makapagpahinga at makatulog kahit saglit lamang.
Mga pananaw mula sa bakasyong ito
Hindi β€˜man ito ang unang bakasyon na kasama ko ang aking pamilya, ngunit isa ito sa hindi ko malilimutan. Ang mga karanasan na nakuha ko mula rito ang patuloy na tatatak sa aking isipan lalo na at ang mga lugar na aming napuntahan ay mga parte ng kasaysayan ng bansa. Mayroon silang pagkakaiba na marapat malaman ng bawat tao.Β 
Ang edad ko sa panahong ito ay batang-bata kung kaya’t hindi na rin gaanong detalyado ang mga pangyayari sa bakasyong ito. Hindi ko inaasahan na ang mga lugar na tinitingnan at pinasukan ko lamang noon ay bahagi ng mga cultural heritage sa loob ng bansang Pilipinas. Mga istrukturang itinayo ng napakatagal na panahon, mula pa noong panahon ng kolonyal ng mga espanyol.
Sa bakasyon na ito ko tuluyang nakilala ang sarili ko na mahilig lumibot sa iba’t ibang lugar at pahalagahan ang bawat nararating. Natutunan ko na gaano β€˜man kahirap at katagal ang biyahe kapag narating mo ang destinasyon, mapapawi at mapapawi ang lahat ng pagod na iyong nadarama. Ang bawat pag-ikot ng mata sa mga tanawin ay walang katumbas. Ang bawat bakasyon na kasama ko ang pamilya ko ay may kakaibang ibig sabihin para sa akin. Ang bawat bakasyon sa aking buhay ay isang pagkakataon mula sa Panginoon na nagbibigay sa akin ng oras na mas makasama at mabigyang halaga ang aking pamilya.

An Adventure in Ilocos: From History to Beaches
The journey began in Vigan City, a place where history comes alive in every cobblestone street and ancient facade. Walking through Calle Crisologo felt like stepping into a time machine. The Spanish-era architecture, horse-drawn carriages, and traditional shops created a unique blend of the past and present. As I passed the Syquia Mansion and the Vigan Cathedral, I could almost hear the echoes of a bygone era.
My next stop was the majestic Paoay Church, a UNESCO World Heritage site known for its massive buttresses. The church's stone walls and intricate designs were a testament to the craftsmanship of the past. The view was breathtaking, and I spent a moment soaking in the history.
The journey continued north to Bangui, where the towering windmills stood tall against the azure sky. The sight of these massive structures along the coastline was awe-inspiring. Not only did they provide renewable energy, but they also symbolized progress and innovation.
From there, I headed to Pagudpud, the "Boracay of the North". The white sandy beaches and crystal-clear waters were a dream come true for any beach lover. I stayed at Casa Consuelo Island Reef, a quaint beachfront resort that offered the perfect blend of relaxation and adventure. I spent my days swimming, snorkeling, and exploring the sorrounding areas.
A trip to Ilocos wouldn't be complete without visiting the Cape Bojeador Lighthouse in Burgos. The climb to the top was worth it, with panoramic views of the West Philippine Sea. It was a moment of pure serenity, with the sound of waves crashing against the cliff below.
On my last day, I decided to embrace my adventurous side at the La Paz Sand Dunes. Riding a 4x4 across the dunes and trying sandboarding was an adrenaline rush like no other. It was the perfect way to end my journey in the area.
Throughout my adventure, I tasted some of the best Ilocano cuisine. Bagnet- a deep fried pork dish with it's crispy exterior and tender interior, became an instant favorite. The Vigan-style empanada, filled with meat and vegetables often served with vinegar, was a delightful snack. I also enjoyed longganisa, the traditional garlic rice and pinakbet a mixed vegetable dish with shrimp paste.
The Ilocos Region is known for its unique and delicious sweets that reflect the rich culinary heritage of the area. Here's an overview of some popular Ilocano sweets: 1. Binagkal- is a type of deep-fried sesame-coated rice cake. It's crispy on the outside and chewy on the inside, with a hint of sweetness, it is often enjoyed with coffee or tea, 2. Bibingka-is a traditional Filipino rice cake made with glutinous rice, coconut milk, sugar, and other ingredients. It is often cooked in clay pots lined with banana leaves, giving it a distint flavor and aroma. It is a popular treat during special occasions and holidays especially during Christmas, 3. Patopat- is a sticky rice dessert wrapped in banana leaves or palm leaves. It's made from glutinous rice mixed with cocunt milk and sugar, giving it a sweet and rich flavor. Patopat is often enjoyed during fiestas and family gatherings. My relatives made patopat incredibly delicious 4. Chichacorn-is a crunchy snack made from deep corn kernels and it comes in various flavors like garlic, cheese and barbecue. It is an addictive snack that's perfect for munching on the go or sharing with friends.
These sweets are just a glimpse of the delicious treats you can find in the area. Try these sweets on your next visit to the Ilocos Region or find them in Filipino markets and stores to bring a taste of Ilocano culture to your home.
As I packed my bags to leave, I realized that the Region had given me more than just an adventure- It had given me a deeper appreciation for Filipino culture, and proud of the history and the indomitable spirit of the people. This journey was just the beginning.
Thank you for reading! Until next time, salamat and see you soon!
