First Timer In Baguio 2

D' Kamalig Comedy Bar

On our first day, we decided to have a good dose of laughter after a tiring
5 hour travel (we haven't slept at all, we came all the way from our work). We went to the popular D'Kamalig COmedy Bar at the Upper Session Rd.

One thing that I loved was the fried onion rings. It tastes like fried chicken and I dont know what to say!

One scene during the set we attended:
SCENE: Kamalig Comedy Bar in Baguio. HOST: Madako naman tayo sa mga bisita natin dito sa kaliwa. Feeling ko mga taga-Maynila ito. Taga Manila kayo noh? Adam: Yup. HOST: Saan po sa Manila? Adam: Tondo. HOST: Ahh sa Antipolo....
---- Hahaha! Bukas daw magiging part na ng Manila ang Antipolo!!!


Continuation of SCENE: Kamalig Comedy Bar in Baguio.
HOST 1: Ahhhh, Tondo Manila. HOST 2: Maganda ang sports jan. Ang mga players nagbabarilan! HOST 1: Korek! Tsaka malambing mga tao jan. Nagka-jowa nako ng taga Tondo, pag nangigigil sakin, lagi niya ako kinukurot. HOST 3: Awww! Sweet! HOST 1: Kaya lang, ginagamit niyang pangkurot, nipper! JON: (pabulong) mga hindot....

I will not mention how they ask for tips from the audience, but definitely, I enjoyed the whole set and night at this bar.


The Haunted Diplomat Hotel
One interesting place we saw was the ruins of the old Diplomat Hotel, at the top of the Dominican Hills. It used to be a rest house and a seminary way back 1911 before it was developed into a hotel.

According to some articles I've read in this hotel, nuns and priests were beheaded there during the war and this was believed to be the reason why headless apparitions can often be seen during the night inside the hotel. The employees and guests also claimed that they have been hearing strange sounds. Up to this date, people who are living nearby would often be disturbed by sounds coming from the Dominican Hill at night. They would hear banging of doors and windows, clattering of dishes and voices of screaming people, who seem to be agonizing.



Some weird experience. I had my picture taken at the door of the ruins, and I posted it on my Facebook. 2 people told me that they see someone behind me, and I was not alone in the picture. Creepy huh?


Next, I will post about my favorite places in Baguio.
