Samar Surf Saya - June 17 Day 1
Companions - Grace Capistrano and LU/Manila-based surfers
Day 1 - Flight to Tacloban. Typhoon Egay is on the loose, by the way.
Lunch at Giuseppes' Tacloban.
Duptours' van from Tacloban to Guiuan that took three and a half hours. We left Tacloban four o' clock in the afternoon. It's a bumpy ride with no A/C. Once we reached town, we looked for a ride to bring us to Calicoan. We found one but then the driver's charging us Php250. We thought it's expensive so we haggled but were not successful. We agreed eventually so the tricycle driver took us there.
Checked in at Calicoan Ocean Villas. After dinner, went straight to bed. What a tiring day!
Coron Trip - Day 3, May 29, 2011
Hello, Day 3! This day, I'd say is the highlight of this trip. We're going to Malcapuya and Banana Island!
It's an hour boat ride to the island and the weather's not that good. In fact, I'm scared seeing dark clouds and rain while we're still riding the boat.
I was hoping that the place will be worth the travel. Lo and behold, the place is paradise.
The island's view deck.
After lunch, we went to our next destination, Banana Island.
We weren't able to go the this island but I took a picture anyway. I even forgot its name.
Dinner at Macario's Grill.
Last day, May 30 was for buying pasalubong. Thanks Cathy for the other photos. :)
Coron Trip - Day 2, May 28, 2011
It's Island Hopping Day today!
First stop, Kayangan Lake.
Next is Atwayan beach, where we had our lunch.
We then went to Coral Garden and CYC beach for more snorkeling and swimming. Afterwards, we went to Maquinit Hot Springs.
For dinner, we ate at Bistro Coron for one of the yummiest pizzas.
So there's our Day 2 in Coron.
Coron Trip - Day 1, May 27, 2011
Companion: Catherine Seneres
Aboard Air Philippines, we went to Busuanga. It has been "officially" the start of rainy season and we have yet to enjoy summer. Before our vacation has even started, I've been constantly checking Weather Underground and PAGASA websites for updates. Despite of the checks, here comes the rain.
We checked in at Rudy's Place. http://rudysplacelodge.jimdo.com/ Rested an hour or so, then they decided to have early dinner so we'd be invigorated the following day.
We ate at Kawayanan.
This capped Day 1.
