1. Ah! I miss Baguio! I only go there when I visit my doctors at Notre Dame.

2. When they are that big, they get pretty scary-looking!

3. I have seen such a big carp when the flood in our area subsided. This carp is a perfect toast for ensaladang mangga.

4. I hope I can go to Baguio and see that famous Burnham Lake. Ang laki nun fish. I am sure my son would love to see it.

5. Such a big fish there.
   I think the lake will be rehabilitated soon. Is the said lake manmade?

6. i miss baguio too.. i hope we can go to baguio soon and visit burnham lake..

7. Good to hear about the rehab of Burnham Lake. We should take care of our tourist spots like Baguio. Wow, those are huge! How did they get so big living in the lake….

8. oh wow, nabuhay sila dun! Looking forward to see the all new lake. When is the target date of completion kaya?

9. Oh you live in Baguio! I've never been to the summer capital, maybe next year. I hope the rehabilitation is complete by then.

10. wow.. super laki naman ng isda.. anu yung isa? parag mahaba… I hope I can visit Baguio again in the future.. -Rosemarie/Gven-Rose

11. @pretty mom, eel daw yun, sis!honestly i didnt think any creature would survive there kasi really murky talaga ang water. yun pala, anlalaki haha

12. @lady anne and vera, they should complete this before the panagbenga which will be in february. Hope they can finish, because the last time the lake was dredged, it took months!

13. @jellybelly, I know! I didnt know they could get that big! Hope they didnt grow from toxic waste hehe

14. @Mys, why do you visit your docs at Notre? Hope you guys could come visit. You will appreciate the cool weather

15. @Allan, the lake was manmade but I think it was a small body of water, like a marsh?, back then. It was where horses drink their water way back in the 1900s (Marlboro country dati ang Baguio hehe)

16. Lochness monster… hmmm, I wonder how real or unreal are these creatures.

17. I haven't been into that place so if I ever I visit, I don't know which has been changed. Dami kong tawa sa locness monster hahahha!!!!

18. never been to Baguio. wow i would love to see Burnham Park and other tourist spot in Baguio.

19. i haven't to baguio for years…i heard the rehab involves dredging of the lake, that would affect visitors for Pinagbenga, lapit na di ba…

20. Great pictures! My mom was born and raised in Baguio, but my siblings and I haven't been there ever!

21. Oh the once beautiful lake looks soddy! 😀 But it's good that they're rehabilitating it. About time! Would you have any idea how long the rehab will take? 😉

22. @Meikah, I think their target date is on the first week of Feb. They are filling the lake with water now. It needs water equivalent to the whole city's one day supply. Hala, baka madivert water there and we won't have water anymore

23. @Maan, di ba youre from Davao? Wow, was your mom born here? People who grew up here practically know each other, actually.

24. Hmm..it's been a long time that I haven't visited Baguio. I hope we can visit there this summer. 🙂

25. It's always a relief to see our natural resources being rehabilitated. I wish we can do the same with our balding mountains and garbage-filled rivers.

26. That's a nice initiative of the government to rehabilitate one of Baguio's tourist destinations. I've been to Baguio May of last year when I haven't been blogging yet. 🙂 I definitely had a looooot of fun! I have friends in Baguio who gladly toured my around. I hope to meet you if ever lang, that I go back once again for the Panagbenga Festival for work. By the way, just a trivia, I went to Baguio last year for the first ever Bloggers' Conference held at UP Baguio. Wonder if you were in attendance at that time? I took notes about basics in blogging and 2 months after that, I started Mommy Practicality. Sorry, this is such a long comment already. I just have fond memories of Baguio. Hoping to come back soon! 🙂

27. Oversized fish indeed!heheh It's good to know that its being rehabilitated and well-taken care. 😀

28. Those are real? wow! what are they feeding them?

29. This is a very good initiative for Baguio! How everyone has to visit Burnham Park or not have visited Baguio at all! I remember about the eel when we were in the US and we were told to feed the eel. We forgot if it was once a day or once a week! I think we overfed the eel!

30. How were you able to get a picture of the oversized eel and carp? Are you part of the rehab team?

31. I have never been to Baguio. I hope that when I visit, everything is already rehabilitated.

32. Wow Baguio! SO the lochness monster is true afterall ? 🙂

33. It is amazing how those grew that big! I want to see them in flesh!

34. The last photo, is that for real? haha, Dino at Baguio!

35. Sis, akala ko wordless Wednesday. Bakit may description? ;-P

    My last visit to Baguio was in March 2010 and I noticed the congested roads, pollution and the massive people. I love the weather pero I don't think I'll survive 9.5 degrees! 🙂

36. The last shot made me smile… I like that 🙂

37. Good news that they are rehabilitating Burnham Lake. It is one of those places you cannot forget to visit when you go to Baguio.

38. hahaha parang nga. the eel looks scary. 🙂

39. I knew it! They were looking for the Loch Ness monster in the wrong place. It's been at Burnham Lake all along lol!

40. oh, boat ride will be stopped…and why those carp and eel are oversized?

41. That is one big eel!!! I'd be scared to death if I see it swimming past the boat I'm on. How did those get so big?!

42. @everybody, I dint even know those creatures are lurking in the murky lake. Akala ko nga dead ang lake as in no creatur will stay alive cuz it looked so murky! Plus, you don't see them when you go boating. You only see the little fishies

43. So the Burnham Park would be ready for the next Panagbenga Festival!
