Time I spend in the beach makes me experience how wonderful it is to have and hold life's simple pleasures. It becomes more special when the place I come to is Boracay. The minute my feet touch the powdery white sand, I already dream of when I can return.
I flew to Aklan along with my kid friends, my BS Nursing buddies actually for a 3-day respite in Boracay(the island people discourage the use of "Bora")on a rainy July.July, as it was the holiday break of some of these girls from their work in foreign cities.
 |
| Waiting for the oyster ferry to bring us to Caticlan. |
 |
| The seats are nice.The ferry is clean.The air conditioner and enclosed space made us dizzy though. I prefer the old-fashioned open ferry boats. |
 |
| Yayyyy!!We're set on white sand and about to have lunch attack. |
 |
| I felt secured because my hotel balcony was directly across this police station. |
 |
| @ Epic Bar for a night of drinks and music. |
The beautiful evenings of Boracay are spiked with music of all kinds which offer tourists and island lovers several choices. There's acoustic in one bar, rock 'n roll few yards away,techno in the next.
 |
| With Tei,Joie and Dudz. |
 |
| Epic's pina colada is the best.For many years, Manor(Baguio) 's version held the crown.I award it now to this bar in Aklan. |
 |
| The music and manner of service in Epic is very similar with Republic in Resorts World. I wondered if they share the same management. The DJs played funky,house and pop music. |
 |
| Sexy Joie and Dudz.These girls were my roommates. |
 |
| Thank God for the SUN. I dreamed when it made its presence felt by all the beachgoers. |
As we were in the best summer place on a rainy season, the highlight of my recent trip in the island was the bright appearance of the sun on a Saturday morning. I jumped and ran to the pristine powdery sand and did "body scrub." :) Almost everyone took advantage of the sunshine, it was a joy to bask in the clear water with strong waves at that.
 |
| What were we thinking here, Dudz? Our next activity or a place where to eat next? |
Dudes was the designated "activity coordinator" of the group for this trip. I easily glided through each day with no fixed agenda, go where the wind blows as they say. This was easier said than done as we reached the Zorb Park. It crossed my mind to retreat from the ride, never mind if Kris was able to do it.Oh well, for the experience!
 |
| This park was made popular by Ate Kris when she tried it for a reality episode of KrisTV. |
 |
| Woohhaa!! Let's see if I can do this. |
 |
| Zorb partners. |
 |
| My Zorb mate. |
 |
| A nervous smile. |
 |
| Good luck to us!!!! |
Here goes a short footage of sorbing. The actual ride lasted for about 15 seconds. After the anxiety and slight fear, all we said after was , Bitinnnnnn!!! Try it on your next visit to Boracay.:)
Travel.Eat.Laugh.
