During the third week of September in the year 2000, my wife Nena and I visited Baguio City and stayed for four days. We were fortunate enough to be guests of Des and Auring Bautista who are old friends of ours. We had the opportunity to stay at Iggy's Inn which the couple owns. The inn has been most convenient on our part since it served not only as our temporary residence while in Baguio but also as the base for all the trips and the different activities we had to attend to. The Bautistas were kind enough to take us to almost everywhere we wanted to go and see in the city. They have gone out of their way to make our visit as comfortable and as enjoyable as possible and we really appreciate what they have done for us. Without their valuable help, I wouldn't have been able to accomplish the numerous things I wanted to do during our brief stay in Baguio.
As I have always done in my previous visits, I took a number of photographs of the many different things I saw and also the people I met. I took pictures of different streets in the city, new and old buildings, familiar landmarks, parks, scenic views and landscapes. All the 40 color photographs that are portrayed below were the ones I selected from the many shots I took. I did try to visit as many places as I could to take pictures and share all these with others who would be interested to see it. And it is my hope that the portrayed photographs will give you a much clearer idea of how Baguio City looked when I came to visit it.
