Taste of Bacolod

When one talks about Bacolod, the first thing that comes to mind is.... Chicken Inasal!!! They are so known for it. Bacolod is the capital and the largest city in the province of Negros Occidental. It has a total population of 499,497 as of August 1,2007. Considered as the most populous city in Western Visayas Region.

So, what's the reason for going there? My boyfriend has to attend a convention meeting. So, I packed the things needed for this trip. While inside the plane he took some snaps using my A580 Canon digital Camera.

See the clouds? I wonder how it feels to be able to touch the clouds with my bare hands....

Finally here comes the destination...At the airport Lobby people seems to be rushing about, some still figuring out what window is next or where to go.If you're not going to be brave enough to ask for direction you'll be late with your appointments.

Fetched by a group of men with police escorts made me realize the importance of my boyfriend's presence in there, with police escorts?hello! But I don't want too much attention like that. It's not something Im used to have. When you're in one of that car being escorted by those police riding that motorcycle... you'll feel like a celebrity. Some would enjoy it... i think what I would enjoy is the ride without having to deal with long bumper to bumper traffic....


At THE BACOLOD PAVILLION:

Its just a newly opened hotel... so everything does look new and very very clean and soooo inviting!

After taking the shots, its time to deal what we came here for. The Conference. Everyone was following what was on the program. Some members were too busy talking to each other whenever somebody would go up in the stage to talk and sounded a bit boring. I confessed that I wasn't paying that much attention too. :P

The intermission number on that CONFERENCE HALL reminded me of my youth. I used to dance for the school program back then. This was the part where you'd get a "wake up" your senses feel after a long boring speech. :P

After the conference meeting which lasted till midnight, everyone was waiting to be able to rest their backs finally in bed. Since it was attended by more than a thousand participants everyone shares a room. The next day was spent on another agenda .


The real treat for me were the take home goodies!! It's not free but what's traveling to distant places if you're not going to bring home something that you can share to the people you'll come home to?
Here are my take home goodies:

Dried squid, danggit, and dilis.

These are the things I like about going to places... next stop? I don't know yet!
But I wanted it to be more closer to nature.....

Till next post. Have a great day to all!
