Had Fun at Burnham Park

Went home last weekend of October to spend some time with my family. Together with me was my niece (brother's daughter) from Tagaytay (their home). Since it was only her 2nd time to visit, we went out on Sunday to attend mass, and picnic at Burnham after.

Burnham Park is one of the tourist attractions in Baguio. There are different parts of the park depending on what you prefer to do. There's the Children's park, Biking area (separate for children and adults so it's safe especially for kids), Burnham lake and the Rose Garden to name a few. You can find the perfect spot for your picnic in any of these areas. For photography enthusiasts, this is also a nice place to take lots of pictures.

For my family, it has always been the Children's park so that the kids can just play around. After lunch, the kids went biking for an hour.  We rented just one with side-car where it was manuevered by my nephew and his passengers were my 2 nieces. The area was beside Burnham Lake so after their biking, they requested us to go boating wich I obliged because believe it or not, I haven't tried that myself. :p

We had the option to paddle the boat ourselves or just have someone do it for us for an additional fee. Being the nervous aunt that I was that time (I was the only adult in the group :p), I opted for the later. Rowing back and fourth took about 20 minutes. I'm not very much familiar with the existing rate but I paid Php 230.00 for the 30-minute boat ride, and the fee for the boatman.

Here are some pictures of that day.

If you're visiting Baguio, you can't miss the place because it's located at the city proper.
