Lil Town of Bontoc in Photos

Magandang buhay...

White fog covered the hills, mountains, and even parts of the highway as we drove to Bontoc. But that didn't stop us from snapping pictures, taken mostly within that beautiful town. And here's to share some of them. ^{(Note: These are non-professional takes)}

I was almost dozing off when the hubby hit the brake and slowed down making me wonder why. As if he read my thoughts he pointed at the distance and asked, "Don't you want to take pictures of those fields?" My veins were yet to wake up fully but my mind was.

Phone out of the window, camera on and pointing... one... two... click... click... click. The fields looked golden. They must be on the verge of harvesting the rice plants.

The lil guy in the backseat got up and looked out the window (was rolled up due to the rain). He must be curious why we were moving slowly.

Anyway, the hubby sped up again when he noticed the phone was no longer pointing outside. Two minutes later, we were passing by the Bontoc Capitol and there was a bit of traffic so I took the chance to snap some pics of the place's facade, including an interesting mural.

Soon after, we were by the street along the NFA office. Unlike the main road along the capitol building, there were not many vehicles on this side it looked a bit stretchy, especially with the trees lined up almost perfectly in the middle. Some were parked by the roadsides, along with trikes, the main mode of transportation within the locality.

At almost nine in the morning, the fog still hovered above us, blanketing the hills and mountains in the distance we nearly couldn't see them.

As our rendezvous point was just around the place, we needed to find a parking spot and found a space just outside the church nearby. We spent the next three hours in our appointment and by the time we were done, it was already midday and we were starving. The hubby suggested we take the short drive to the northside to view the whole town before we grab lunch.

Why not? So off we went and had these views of the progressing town nestled between mountains. Golden fields were also seen in the distance and below the road. We spent around ten minutes there and drove back.

The succeeding photos were taken while we returned to the heart of town. Below is a glimpse of a State Polytechnic College by the main street.

An overpass along the Capitol street.

The structure ahead was interesting so I took some pics as we approached it.

While we wanted to explore, the weather was not cooperating so we drove along the street for a place to fill our growling tummies. We found a spacious one that didn't say no to dogs and had our $10 meals, complete with hot soup perfect for the dreary day.

We went on our way home from there. Of course, the trip has been added to the memory box which would be nice to revisit someday. We were also in that town in December 2022 and had an enchanting evening in its plaza.

There will be a next time for sure!
