Keni Po Tagaytay!

Every time I visit Tagaytay I usually stay at Keni Po. Why? because the staff are friendly and accommodating, the rooms are budget friendly, clean and comfy, nice and clean swimming pool, it is located in a very accessible place and they have a fast internet connection! 

We visited Tagaytay again last June 12 and 13, 2013.


 They have a parking area that can fit 10-12 cars.
 *Day time
*Night time
It is located beside Ina ng Laging Saklolo Parish.
They have this nice little garden with swimming pool.
This is their 6 feet pool (It was really clean)
Guests are also allowed to bring and grill food. (look at them! so masipag!)

On our first day we stayed at the second floor twin sharing room that costs Php 1200. 
This is their second floor lounge.
The room has a single bed, air conditioning unit, veranda, flat screen TV with cable and DVD player (Note: you can borrow dvd and they have a lot of movies available) and a comfort room with bath tub.
On our second day we stayed for a while with our friends. They arrived early and they have plenty of time to go to the market and explore the place.
Their room is located at the ground floor family room that costs Php 2000. The room is good for four and their staff is nice enough to allow five guests without additional payment. They also allowed me and Vincent to stay in their room for around two to three hours without additional payment also. 
The Family room has a small living room, kitchen, comfort room, bedroom with two beds and air conditioning unit.
We really had fun staying at Keni Po, looking forward for Part 2 with these pretty girls!

Tagaytay City -The Country’s 2nd Summer Capital

Me and Vincent went to Tagaytay thrice. Our first visit was last February 21 and 22, 2011. It was his birthday and we want it to be memorable. It was actually my first time there.That day I am sick and we only went to Picnic Grove, People's Park in the Sky and ate at Mushroom Burger. What a day! 

We rode a Bus in Quirino Avenue, Manila with the sign board Tagaytay Olivarez. You can inform the conductor to drop you at the jeepney terminal going to People's Park. The terminal is near Rotonda. You can also ride the tricyle for Php20.00 per person going to Picnic Grove.

Picnic Grove:

*Entrance at Picnic Grove costs Php50.00

*You can also rent a cottage that costs Php100.00 to Php250.00 depending on the size.

View of Taal Volcano and Taal Lake
Eco Trail
Zipline and Cable Car
We tried Zipline and it was awesome! Riding the zipline is a thrilling experience especially because of the height and the wind in your face.

To go to People's Park in the Sky you can ride a jeep for a minimum fare.

Don't forget to visit the Mushroom Burger located at E. Aguinaldo Highway, Maharlika West, Tagaytay City!

More or less we enjoyed our overnight stay especially because of the cool weather.

You and Me as We Travel

We have been together for 1 year, 9 months, 1 week & 2 days today. As I reminisce, I was fascinated that with that span of time we are together, we have been to different places already. Imagine, we were able to allot time to visit places inspite of the schedule we have at work.

Graveyard shift and six days a week work schedule. Every time we file a vacation leave we are always hoping for its approval.

The places that we visited:

Baguio- twice

Naga City

Tagaytay- thrice

Calaruega Batangas

Vigan

Laoag

Pagudpud

Lucban Quezon- twice

People's Park in the Sky

People's Park in The Sky is one of the famous destination in Tagaytay. Entrace fee is Php30.
It was originally intended by the former first lady Imelda Marcos in 1979 as a guesthouse for Ronald Reagan, which was the California Governor at that time, who never arrived. The half-finished Palace in the Sky became the People's Park in the Sky after the People Power Revolution.

You can either ride a jeep or go up to reach the supposed Mansion.

At the back is a wishing well (but it was closed) :(
There he is enjoying every minute of it!
Make sure to visit People's Park in the Sky before 7:00am to experience the thickness of fog and coldness of air. The area is great for taking pictures and of course a fantastic view.
