We went to Ilocos some time last August 2012 together with Hubby's family. They hired a van to go around tourist spots in Ilocos and we tagged along. You'll be amazed that there's lot of places to go in Ilocos that one or two days won't be enough.
1. Baluarte in Vigan City
The Baluerte is a private owned property of Governor Chavit Singson turned into a zoo. Admission is free.
