Palawan Village Hotel Puerto Princesa

... and Rose (the owners, he is from New Zealand by way of Australia and she is a filippina) are great people. Andy will pick you up and drop you off at the airport.

The room was comfortable and the service was great, although the roof leaked in the corner of the room during an overnight rainstorm.

I rented a motor scooter near the House of Rose. The price is PHP500/day but if you mantion you are from the Hosue of Rose, the rate is PHP400/day. Explored ...

... the ball crashed onto mum’s plate of crabs. I decided to have revenge on them by throwing the crabs at them. But we didn’t.

After lunch we did some more snorkelling and made a few sandcastles. Dad and Michelle went out deeper into the sea and saw a giant squid. Then we went for a walk to the end of the beach. Then we went to the reef. I and Dad looked at the coral and the fish.

... airport and then hopping yet another plane to an island where we could at least spend all day drinking in bars with Western tourists. We mutually decided that was probably irrational since we had only been in Sabang for three hours. So, we sucked it up, rolled up our pants (the only pairs we brought, by the way) and grabbed our umbrellas. We were going to "town" to check it out........and to buy alcohol. That has always been our entertainment fall back plan and it has never ...

... Ce temps que je devrais avoir pour moi, pour reflechir a moi, loin du tumulte, mais ca ne vient pas, parresse ou manque de l'etincelle ? Trop absorbe par ce que je vois, des gamins quiplongent dans l'eau me tiennent scotches de longues minutes entieres, un type qui repare son bateau pareil... Et puis aussi mes lectures qui m'enthousiasment toutes jusqu'a present, un book de Yasmina Khadra aujourd'hui, tout cela me ...

... hours. We stopped at Coconut Island for a quick swim - there is a nice looking guest house here on a very small stretch of beach. Would be good if you really wanted to get away from everything. We found Port Barton to be a really nice, clean and very friendly town. Everyone said hello to us and on one walk we were very politely invited by a school kid to go on to the oval to watch the students practice for their school ...

... The first to strike me is the fact the heat, puh! Compared to Manilla this place is boiling hot. There are even some travelers here! At the passport inspection I end up chatting with a apparently seasoned traveler, who obviously turns out to be yet another Scandinavian. This time even a Norwegian - bummer. He turns out to be a nice guy though, doing a 'round the world trip. He's going my way so we decide to travel ...

... with one of the locals (everyone spoke english, i love it), i jumped back on my bike and backtracked to the fork, and headed towards my destination...not directly however, as i once again got sidetracked by a dirt path leading off the main road towards a huge marble mountain that looked like it would be fun to get to...after slowly passin thru the village and attracting attention from all the locals, i was out in the country on a washed out dirt ...
