Boracay Beach, Aklan

Our next stop was Boracay Beach in Malay, Aklan. We decided to go via the long route this time, arriving by plane at Kalibo airport and going by land transfer through the plains and mountains of the island of Aklan. It was a very quiet and simple life as far as the eye can see. Our excitement jumped the moment we could see the water. Of course this beach's reputation precedes itself. The sand is just fantastic, and you can never run out things to do whether on the water or on the sand. We wen...

If life's a 'beach', make mine White Beach any day

The first port of call in the multiple-island nation of the Philippines was a short stay in Manila, more specifically the airport hotel, which was a base for an early-morning flight the next day, as well as a half-day trip to the SM mall of Asia, one of earth's largest and most impressive shopping complexes. A 12-lane boulevard leads the way, and then you're pretty much in the shopping mall labyrinth, where shops and food courts abound, and if that all gets too much, there's always the deligh...

Boracay Island - Visit Number One

My first view of the Boracay Beach with breathtaking...we got there around dusk, and we saw the start of the sunset. Our hotel, La Carmella de Boracay, is right on the beach. The hotel has a huge pool in front, and a very nice lobby. When we arrived as we checked in we were offered cold drinks before going back to our room. It was not a fancy room, two double beds, tv, small fridge, porch, and a safe. There was a washroom with shower, though we did find out that there was not much hot water, ...

Boracay Island - The Return

After Ati Atihan, we decided to stay around Lezo for a couple of days, just to relax. We visited the market, an the pottery again, and took a walk to the town cemetery, where we saw some gruesome sights! We did some shopping in Kalibo, where the after party mess was huge! Wednesday morning we took the bus to Boracay again. We did the goodbyes with the family and off we went! We stayed at the same hotel, but this time no reunion people and no family, so it was just the two of us. Many of the s...

... joined a Frisby team and were here for a few days as part of their tour. They were a really nice gang. We're trying the buffets here that they have all along the beach. Crab wasn't great but today they had a lovely suckling pig all laid out with his crispy skin! Yum pork chops! Only 4 euro each. Going out again tonight and we're going to try walking a bit further down the beach than ...

4 Million Mosquito bites and a Bottle of Rum!

Hey all!<br>Wow Boracay is beautiful. It's real paradise. Miles of white sand and blue sea. I love it. Cheap jewellery, bikinis and rum. Doesn't get much better! Except of course, you guys aren't here! Had a great night out! Sipping rum and coke by our room, when we were invited to join the owner and staff to eat yummy banana cakes stoln from a nearby hotel. They were lovely crowd ...

Boracay baby!

Hey Hey<br><br>Caught a very small plane to Caticlan this morning form Manila. The plane was really fun for me but not so much for Lucy. A bit turbulence-y! We caught some nice views of Manila and some islands on the way though. Hopped straight on a small boat then for a few minute journey to Boracay. Oh and by the way the runway is very short in Caticlan!<br><br>When we got off on the pier we were approached by a lady who asked ...

Midgets & Lady Boys

Another long story short in which I will turn into a short story long at some point. By for the most beautiful beach I've ever been too in my life. In the same breath, the most lady boys and love for midgets as well. Not a circus of migets on unicycles wearing sombreros, but picture an invisible version of the seven dwarfs from Alice and Wonderland. Our Hotel was protected by the 7 midgets, hence ...

The Philippines- got $20,000? You're a millionaire

... long night of making out on a beach with a local girl. Sunday- Ahh, Paradise We designate Sunday as a relaxation/shopping/exploration day and we have an awesome time in perfect weather laying out on the beach, haggling with locals for sunglasses (I bought 9 pairs) and exploring some of the cooler stuff we could walk to. We also hired out a sailboat to take us out around the island for an hour which was really cool. Lunch was had at an amazing burger place and ...

Back To Manila One Last Time

... seating was limited. I discovered he had a very Americanized accent and he told me that he, too, worked in a Call Center in Manila. He was actually a language/accent instructor, so he perfected his English and then instructed others. He now resides in Quezon City, working as a real estate agent. He says it's a good job to have. During the 45 minute flight back to Manila, I was seated next to a Palistinian man. Both he and the Filipino ...

So im swimming back and see 2 fat long eels swimming near me, started swimming as fast as i could it was pretty scary. We also saw a family of puffer fish. Jenna passed my Scuba diving course ...
