Gianne's Scrapbook of our North Luzon Road Trip

The trip was the first time my father was to return to his roots after more than 20 years. We were to visit his sister (my auntie) and see some of the historical, cultural, and tourist sites of Ilocos in Northern Luzon. There was no fixed itinerary, we just went where the wheels and our gut took us, but here's how our schedule went:

Day 1: Drove to Baguio City.
Day 2: Drove northwest from Baguio City to Marcos, Ilocos Norte. Spent the night at auntie's.
Day 3: Headed to the northernmost end of Ilocos Norte, then northeast towards Cagayan, and southbound to Isabela. Spent the night in Ilagan, Isabela.
Day 4. Drove to Santiago, Isabela to see my father's other siblings. Drove back to Manila.

On that weekend, my daughter Gianne, then 6 years old, was supposed to go on a field trip with the rest of her kindergarten class, but we had to take this rare chance to drive to my father's birthplace in Ilocos Norte which meant she had to skip the field trip. To make up for it, we decided to make this scrapbook.
