We will also watch the balloon festival but unfortunately we can’t join you since we will be with other family members.
We want to try some of the food you recommended in your best of Pampanga cuisine entry. Pls. inform me of the address of Aling Mely’s Sisig, Jun-jun’s bbq and Aurely’s. Are they far from Clark and far from each other?
Thanks in advance and see you there =D
I want to go! I want to go! …I want to bring my daughter with me to ride the hot air balloon. Would you know how much is the cost for the hot air balloon ride? Would they allow a 4yr. old to ride?
Thanks for the info. 🙂
Hi Anton,
I have posted the link on my multiply site. Can you please give me the details of the trip? How many companions can I bring? What do we need to prepare and bring?
Thanks
Hi Anton!
I posted the link in my multiply site as well! 😀 I’ll be going with a few friends of mine.
See you then! 😀
Hey Anton!

For those who want to try Aling Lucing’s sisig, they have an outlet at the Food Court of SM Clark, near the Sizzling Plate. Also a must try at SM Clark is the Roti at Michele’s Bake Shop, by the Entertainment Place, near Sizzling Plate and SM Appliance. The Roti is always sold out once it’s out of the oven. Good luck with the Roti.
hi! I am really, really excited on this event, we are palnning to go thre on the last day.. but we dont know if there are fees that we need to pay or we can just go there anytime since we have our own vehicle. Pls enlighten me, my son would really love to see those balloons thanks..
I heard on GMA7 news last night that there’s an entrance fee of P100 and a ride on the hot air balloon would cost USD150 (not sure if that’s per person or per balloon).
Can anybody tell me how much is the entrance fee? Is it 100 or 150 pesos? Also what is “CTRM”? Thanks!
