Just Passing By : San Fernando, Pampanga


From HABs (see here) Fiesta in Clark, we wanted to roam around the area to see other places we haven't seen yet. But the on going hot air balloon festival with traffic jam that was quite hard to beat, pushed us to take the road less traveled which was more drive-able _ the going back to Manila route. I asked husband if San Fernando was a possibility. I was hitting on a lunch at Everybody's Cafe and besides, I've never been to this town in Pampanga. So we took San Fernando enroute back to Manila.




beautiful rotunda








I was pleasantly surprised  how  clean and wide the roads were.  I love how scenic and green these Acasia ( are they?) trees made the roads look and feel.




I really thought it was a museum, haha. a Pagcor casino, still under construction.




Christmas lantern. Sure, what's San Fernando without them!












Late for Christmas? Well, it's Christmas again in 9 months.




Cuz' was excited to buy some. She thought it was a good chance to score lanterns on sale. You know, like buying swimsuits on sale during winter or  jackets during summer. Christmas lanterns just after its season was over. On sale?




No way! They were on regular price. haha! No matter how Cuzin' tried to bargain, she couldn't settle for the price she preferred.



So we left the shop without buying, haha. enaf of Christmas for the meantime..




Finally, we reached our target. Our tummies were ready for crickets and stuffed frogs. Jump off to my food blog here  to see Everybody's Cafe's not so exotic dishes. See yah.
