Tagaytay has been like a dream destination I want to go to a lot more
often, if given a chance. And since we're staying in Lipa, it's not too
far away for a drive.
It was actually a crazy idea of mine. Going to Tagaytay at 3PM, how was that? Everybody got changed promptly and in less than an hour we were heading north-bound. We paid no attention to the heavy rain that started to pour in Lipa because a clearer view of the sky could be seen over Tagaytay area. True enough, it wasn't raining and it never did the whole time we were there.
On our way up, we stopped at selected fruit stands to buy pineapples, bananas and my favorite ripe langka. It was starting to get dark when we reached city proper. We did have a few photos at the top overlooking the majestic view of the Taal volcano, but that was all, then the blue sky swiftly turned purple then black.
We found our way to Bulalo Point to have dinner. I didn't expect the food would be so good, especially the kalderetang kambing, sisig and kare-kare and of course their specialty bulalo. Looking around, I liked the bamboo cottages, but there was nothing else to delight my sight since the pitch dark sky has covered the view. Around the corner, a group of guys where rehearsing some songs, that I presumed they'd sing to their customers. And I was right, we were in the middle of eating when they started playing Bruno Mars' "Just the way you are" and another song which I cannot remember the title because it was an old song.
No doubt we enjoyed all the food, plus the live entertainment that we only get to see often. We could have seen other nice places in Tagaytay if only we had planned it better or left home a bit earlier.
