Mito'S Place Boracay

... to see if there's more pubs along the way than our usual haunt! Just sat down and watched the sunset here for the first time too. We've always seemed to miss it so far. Very beautiful. Off to Oz on the 18th. Feels so weird to be leaving Asia!!! Still have quite a few more lazy days to go here though. Will update with more news when it happens.

Love to all!!

Hey all!
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 ...

... view,,the white sand beach,,foods and a lots of foods,,people are also very nice,,we did love also the shows of every hotels from singing english and tagalog songs.
Shopping is not a problem there you can go to D'mall and find all that you need..And for seafoods lovers you have the talipapa where you can choose,barge and barge then when you succeed to pay what you want they will cook it for you the way you want it.

... 30 this afternoon. Yay! There's only practical stuff left to do. We rewarded ourselves with a swim in the sea afterwards. No partying tonight as we have an early start tomorrow, have to get all our dives done before we leave on Tuesday. We went to the dive shop though to see off a few of the lads who are out of here tomorrow morning. They were already in full flow of their leaving party when we arrived so we had a few drinks with them. Around midnight they ...

... too] down to D*Mall to have a pizza dinner at Aria's. I was really sleepy - probably too much sun, so we walked back to wake me up instead of taking a taxi. I stopped at the Turtle Inn to hang out with Julius and his friends for awhile again. It's nice to be around people my age because we tend to like the same kind of music. Even if we don't have the same everyday lives, there is a connection. To bed around 11:45, AFTER my Dad for once!

... great too. Sarah's favs are the large shoals of fish as interested in her and her bubbles as she is in them. Bill's pretty sure he could hear her giggling in the water. With all the skills tucked away the fun started, all three two pupils and dive instructor learning that laughing with a regulator in your mouth isn't the easiest thing. One of the other instructors aptly describing a barrel sponge as a sponge shaped like a barrel with actions, to highlight the ...

... like El Nino, Crown Of Thorns, anchoring, poor fishing practices, and diver damage. I cannot attribute the health of the reefs only to urbanization. In fact, it is extremely difficult to say if it really affects it at all. I believe global effects have the strongest influence here. There is room for LOTS of other coral studies here, so maybe I can do my PhD here. :) Or just make suggestions to others for future research. I quickly ...

Before we go for an early morning swim, we decided to hunt for a place for good breakfast. There's so many to choose from but I craved for tapsilog - a typical Filipino big breakfast of beef, fried rice and egg. So we went to this nice and small cafe on the beach mall. We then walked along the beach and enjoyed a morning swim. The clear waters, almost white and fine sand...oh, I love it! A friend ...

... was open and I got to rest my eyes on the coconut trees bouncing about outside. My fatigue melted slowly into relaxation and after patting myself down with enormously fluffy towels I was ready to just lie down in the warm breeze and never get up again. My stomach however had other plans, and feeling stoned with divine happiness, we made our way to the closest resturant that offered bacon and eggs for breakfast. We spent more times having innocuous conversations; this ...

... to dance with a woman because unfortunately all the women their age are dancing with western men. I have to admit that I 'm glad my teenage years weren't spent in filipino nightclubs. It was seeing this when I first arrived that again made me think these women were only with westerners for the money. But after talking to the women I discovered they prefer western men because they treat them like equals and not like inferior beings who are only there to serve. Just about all filipino ...
