Day Trip to Bacolod for a Slice of Cake
Since my friends and I are itching to go somewhere, we decided to go to Bacolod for a skateboarding competition and to taste their really amazing cakes from Calea.
We decided to ride a RORO ferry in Dumangas since its much cheaper than a fast craft. We were in doubt if the plan will work because we were going to be late, but there are times that I'm willing to bet on it since I was feeling lucky. And so, after consulting with my friends, we decided to stick with the plan.
Just as we arrived in the port of Dumangas, there was a RORO ferry waiting for passengers. And after approximately 1 hour and a half, we were in Bacolod. We arived in SM City Bacolod, and it was full of people because of the skateboarding competition.

Calea Cakes at last
But I was pissed off since the Lemon Meringue Pie that I ordered tasted very sour. But their cakes are good, especially their Blueberry Cheesecake. An they also offered free water, which was nice.
And they served their cakes in hefty slices, which made their price worth it.

After watching the skateboarding competition, we went back to Iloilo via RORO ferry. And with the help of a guy offering us a ride in exchange for the fare that we will pay the jeep, we arrived in Iloilo at about 8 pm. A bit tired, but it was worth it. Calea cakes are special indeed.
