Bauang's Baggak Summer Festival 2011

Every town in the Philippines celebrate their own town fiesta, merry-making in honor of their patron saints and/or celebrating their good harvest of their crops and that it may come in abundance all throughout the year and years to come. Anyway, I have written about Bauang, La Union, exposing its gray sand coastal area - it's beaches/cottages/hotels and their one-town-one-product - the guapple. 

And due to many of the country's festivities, some schedules overlap, and it's up to you to go where it suits you best, where you feel happy, the enjoyment that brings into you and what the place has to offer you.

Now, below is the schedule of the Baggak Summer Festival 2011 in Bauang, La Union, approximately six (6) hours of ride from Manila via public buses such as Partas, Dominion, Maria De Leon, Florida and among others that are north bound. And if you want to surf in San Juan known as the surfing capital of the north it took around 30 minutes ride through public utility vehicles. Another, it is an hour and 30 minutes to go to Baguio City - the summer capital of the Philippines via Naguilian road, and feel the cool breeze of Baguio.
