Le Soleil de Boracay

... 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 ...

... chat. The owner is married to an English woman so he was all stories about how they met. <br><br>Out in the beach bars later, we met two more people who we had been chatting to at the Halloween party in Hong Kong! Small world or what. <br><br>Covered in Mosquito bites, have counted nearly forty on my legs alone. Not so pretty!<br><br>Miss you all,<br>Stories?<br>Lucy and Adele xxxx

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 ...

... Given the distances and some of the areas that have to be traveled at night, a company of two is far less safe than a van full of people. Someone who could take over the driver's seat to allow the main driver to rest also mean a more relaxed trip. Matthew and Aux had never been to Boracay. Julie and Ray were interested in coming with us too. So it was that as soon as Manuel and I were finished with the visa application at the U.S ...

... door/chair security system in place. This time the crash came at 6am and Matias came in and said they had again spent the night making out on the beach but hadn't gone any farther. Gross. Monday- What else could happen? Those of us who could manage (me and Joel) got up at 8am and went to enjoy one last day in paradise. We checked our flight online and found out that our plane was delayed a couple hours which gave us more time to relax in Boracay. We beached ...

... like a cement wall! I was surprised to see Julius shouting and so he seemed nervous to be coming in so fast. We sailed back in the dark, tacking WAAAAAY out into the sea before riding into shore with the wind. We sailed without lights [like most boats here] and without any motor for back-up. We sailed among other dark boats, beneath Orion's belt towards the bright lights ashore - far enough out that I could not make out the buildings ...

... went down the drain when we chanced upon Jonas shakes in Station 1, reputed to have the best shakes in Boracay. Brenda &amp; I just had to try it out. Shakes with fries, perfect combination. Dinner meant Mango Rays with Brenda &amp; Mike. The ambiance and food, not bad at all. Now if only the helpful waitress would just crack a smile once in a while..... To cap the night off ...

... downstrairs!!! WHAT??!?!!? That's great!!! He must have gotten my email!!! I quickly tried to snap out of my nap mode, changed clothes into something, anything that I felt would be presentable. Shorts &amp; a pink Under Armour t-shirt was literally all I had. Ten minutes later, I was downstairs and Macky &amp; his girlfriend, Lani, were waiting in the Lobby. I gave them hugs and told them how surprised I was they came. Macky said he ...

Hey were still in beautiful Boracay, staying at Banana Banana (Banana Saging which is the Fillipino word for Banana) Anyway the monsoon has changed direction and the winds are coming from the other side of the island and all of the Kite boarders were out and totally stoked on the Typhoon weather. So that's what we hear anyways that a Typhoon is on it's way downt to Akland were Boracay and many other islands are located. Right now though ...
