A romantic dinner for one......
This is a top pick! We had made our minds up last night that we were all snorkeled out for the moment so we would hang up our fins, masks and snorkels and get down to the really fun stuff....Andrew's dissertation. It would be my job to proof read, edit and generally ...
James Pond: License to grill
This is a top pick! We woke at about 8.30am and I went to order Andrew a breakfast from the kitchen. We sat on the porch drinking tea and coffee and tucking in to garlic and onion rice, corned beef and a fried egg, it was even better than the day before. ...
A lovely lazy day
This is a top pick! ... what is best for the people here, she wants 'progress' not at any cost it has to be sustainable. Please visit the Philippines but make sure you're money goes to local people who need it and spread it around not to 5* resorts who limit the take ...
A quick walk around Puerta Princessa
This is a top pick! ... , yes the rainy season has begun, through which we stayed well and truly under cover in the restaurant we ventured in to the capital of Palawan only to be very underwhelmed. We were told that it was the business hub of the Island with the only ATM's ...
This is the mother funchen life - Lady E
This is a top pick! What a great nights sleep!!! I woke at about 7:30. Our boat was leaving at 9 so I did my washing. The day before when the little girl was being sick a smell on the bus made me also feel sick. This morning I realised that smell was me not the sick. It ...
Oh my god a good nights sleep
This is a top pick! ... chosen our cabin, dumped our bags and we were off in to town to explore. El Nido, on the North West tip of Palawan is famous for its limestone karsts rising out of the sea which are said to be a result of India colliding with main land ...
Have you got any leeches for this?
This is a top pick! Breakfast was a lovely still warm sugary doughnut from the town bakery which we shared on the way down to the beach. We met up with Elie at the tour sales hut as he was doing the same tour as us again, this time Tour A, and we were joined by a Swiss guy ...
Eurovision / potential natural wonder of the world
This is a top pick! ... to completely wake us up and then the minibus arrived with our tour guide for the day Jackie to take us to Palawan's famous 'Underground River’ or to give it its proper title The Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park . The Koreans ...

This is a top pick! ... wall. We asked about them obviously and Andy told us that Rose had found them in a charity bag sent from England to the Philippines, nobody wanted them so they were sold for 5 Peso each – Ha that figures!!! Anyway we went back to the bar with ...
Andrew tries to catch crabs on the beach
This is a top pick! ... the tiny crabs back in to their holes (USA get in the hole), Erica cracked the joke about me wanting to catch crabs in the Philippines, well not on this beach anyway. Erica edit: The ray was so close to the shore that was what panicked me, it was ...
Hej przygodo!
Dlaczego musimy znowu wstawać o piątej rano? Ta pora pobudki jakoś nas prześladuje. Ustawione tury na prysznic, zamówione śniadanie, a rezerwacja miejsc w Jeepney'u zrobiona- tak, takie szczegóły mamy ogarnięte. ...
Charlotte's Birthday
... to watch the end of Hannibal which is so fucking turd when you sit it next to SOTL. Charlotte had a nice day, perhaps the night wasn't what she hoped for but I had prepped her for the potential of a not so crazy night. Thanks alot Philippines ...
Goodbye Helldivers
The staff here had been pressing us about a check out time. We assumed that this was because they are wanting to get the next lot of people in. Well you're nice people but you can fuck right off, we are leaving the room at one second before 12pm. In ...
A boat trip to El-nido
Having roughed it out on the road to sabang i met some other travellers who were weary of the road and were willing to share a small boat and take the seven hour journey to El-Nido from sabang, the journey was great but at times quite scary being so far ...
Beach for sale
Lahettiin aamulla laiturille venailee laivaa palawanin paasaarelle. Laiturilla oli normaali pieni outriggeri ja kysyttiin parilta paikalliselta etta missas se laiva joka lahtee el nidoon on? "Yes sir, it's right here" Okay..... Kelattiin etta ehka ...
Final Destination
The advertised trip time was 6 hours. We had read from more reputable sources that it was 8 hours. Guess which one it ended up being. The boat was actually just a glorified fishing boat, we had seen it beforehand so it wasn't a surprise, neither of ...
More rooftop travel and the islands around El Nido
... and kept bumping into in El Nido which was nice and somewhat shaming as Olivia hadn't spoken any English prior to coming to the Philippines and now she could just about hold a conversation with us! It has been a bit of a recurring theme being shamed for ...
une journee a - Coron - a day in
Salut tout le monde, Nous allons bien. Nous avons quitte hier El Nido pour Coron. Un bateau de 18 passagers, pas tres gros avec deux bambous de chaque cote comme stalibilisateur. Pas tres rassurant a premiere vue. J'ai bien hesitee a prendre ce ...
A good surprise
We go with the flow and with that unexpected things happen. We were excited to come to one of Philippines paradises although what we didn't checked before booking the flight tickets was accommodation prices as well as how much costs to sightsee. So after ...
Pork Baton
... and every one would retch on finding it infested with maggots. The entire time we have been in or planning on being in the Philippines we have been aware that we would be here for Easter Week. Everything we read implied we would see the areas we visit ...
Robinson Crusoe for en nat
Oegruppen Bacuit er et smukt naturvidunder med et eventyrligt tvist, alla massevis af smaa limstens-oeer i krystalklare vande. Baciut Bay minder en smule om Halong Bay, som vi oplevede tilbage i Vietnam, men stemningen her er en helt ...
Back to beach life!
... 22 hours late after an impromptu stop for repair on a remote island. El Nido is well placed near the northern tip of Palawan in amongst some cliffs which protect it from some stormy weather and also nicely restrict its growth. I found myself a nice ...

I Prefer His Other 'Work'
When I was about to start writing this entry earlier I realised that there was so little to write about that I could in theory just have written. Woke up. Ate. Went to bed. That however would have been a lie, I remembered something did happen today. ...
