Ilocos Trip Day 1: Exploring Vigan
Our original plan was to take Pagudpud-Laoag-Vigan. As recommended by others who have been to Ilocos, it would be better to start off the farthest and then back. Going to Pagudpud by land means 13 (minimum) hours of travel. Okay, this sounds a bit of a challenge because it means half of the day sitting on a bus. No wonder there is a joke that says Pagudpud means "pudpud ang pwet". On the other hand, Manila -Vigan is an 8 hour drive.
