luckily kami nakisama ang weather samin ng nasa EL nido kami, but alam nyo ba na originally
sept 28-october4 ang choice date ko but puno na mga flights kaya napaaga kami ng konti and it was
a blessing in disguise, kya tuloy ko ang kwento

DAY 1

We arrived early, it was my first trip sa AIRPHIL and i would say superb ang service and ang babait ng staff nila compared to CEBU, ZEST and  PAL, though maganda din ang experience ko sa kanila
yun nga when we arrived, late ang sundo namin, bale ba daming taga hotel dun ang ng assist samin asking what hotel kami ngmukha pa kong snob kasi di ko sinasgot tanong nila, sabi pa nung isa, baka makatulong kami maam, but the truth is di ko ma recall yung FORT WALLY, hahahahaha,then n g ma recall ko na yun na sabi ng pang 3rd na ngtanong, wala pa daw but sasabihan nya ko pag dumating , maupo muna daw ako so nabaitan naman ako sa mga locals, then ng dumating na si sundo tinawag pa nya ko talaga, hahahaha, then sakay kami ng van punta kami sa office, ngbayad na ko then dito na din ako ngpa reserve pabalik , ang bait nga ni ATE EVELYN, kasi binigyan ako ng discount and pagbalik instead na sa terminal drop off nami mismong sa hotel na sa PPS, then i remember sabi ng isang sis natin choose daw yung seat sa likod ng driver so yun ang ni request ko
mga sis di nga nakakapagod, ngulat ako kasi na survive ko yung 6 hours, while nun going to and fro SG-MAlaysia ng plane ako!!, but here i did mange mybe because ang ganda din ng view so na enjoy ko talaga, pgdating namin EL NIDO, ng trycicle na lang kami, malapit lang ang MARINA,
beachfront kami ng stay , dito pa lang breathtaking na ang view, then rest kami ng gabi na sa
SQUIDOS kami ng dinner, i ordered yung grilled pusit nila, then gala-gala sa beach ng gabi, we listened sa  singer sa SEASLUG

DAY2

tour A kami, nghanap kami dun ng ikot kami then yung sinakyan naming trycicle ng ahente samin okey naman coz uniform ang pricing nila  lahat pala ng kasabay namin naka book sa MARINA, bale 8 kami plus 2 foreigner,grabe, the island were awesome!!, it really took my breath away, para kang nasa Paradise,nakapag bonding kaming 8, as if barkada kami even the 2 foreigners ganun din masaya kami, walang hassle, in between nga pala umuulan but di grabe,then aaraw gusto ko na din yun para di gaanong sunburn , then yung snorkeling was the best part for me, ang gaganda ng fishes, yung food okey din alimango na medium size, grilled fresh fish, inihaw na baboy, enjoy kami, and napuntahan namin lahat ng island, masaya kasi okey yung mga kasabay namin , nakakatuwa pa kasi we cared for each other kahit first time naming mgkasama, like ng nahulog ako sa kayak (good thing i know how to swim), the foreigner guy even asked if im okey and tumulong pa sya na makasampa ko sa kayak , hahahaha, natapos kami 5:30 na, then ng dinner kami uli sa [
Suidos , nagustuhan ni hubby, ngkita kami uli ng 2 couple na foreigner na kasama namin sa tour and they hag a chit chat with us,,,

oopps, nobela na ,, nawili ako sa pg reminisce, hehe :)

^FYI. 6am-2pm walang kuryente sa el nido sis so kung may internet cafe ka man na mahanap e wala rin silbi dahil walang kuryente.  :D

Natuwa naman ako sa post mo sis Lakwatsa about dun sa detailed palawan experience mo! :D hehe Ngayon ko lang nabasa.  :)

Hmm.. May malaking problema kasi ako. Malaki kasi malaking group itong gagawan ko ng iti next year. Haha!

Hubby's family are all going home for the eldest apo's wedding. Now, that's roughly around 25-27 pax. Hindi pa kami kasama. So aabot siguro ng 35 pax.  :o :o

Anyway, they wanted to go to Palawan too after seeing our pictures in fb. hehe eto, seryoso talaga sila. As in they really wanna go.

I'm thinking, which city in Palawan ko sila dadalhin? Sa PPS or sa El Nido? Kung PPS, definitely, I'll get Dos Palmas then just do UR a day before just like what hub and I did when we went there. They wanted that as well. Or kung sa El Nido, ang layo kung mang gagaling pa ng PPS airport.

So here's the question I so wanna ask since I'm thinking of going to El Nido myself:  ;D

*How much ang Island Tranvoyager?

*Kung hindi ITI, how can we go to Lagen Resort the cheaper way?

*We have an 82-year old grandma coming with us.... ahhh I know mahirap magtravel, but can she take it?  :-\ (dito sa issue na to, parang PPS na lang ata kami... )

*Do you think it's better to get a tour agent to handle the family vacation? The process of doing reservations looks tedious.  :P

Help me decide sisses. Thanks!  :-*

^hehe. ayos ba  ;D

aside from ITI, seair also flies to el nido sis. yun nga lang ang liit ng plane nyan pero try mo inquire both sa kanila kasi chartered flight yun mangyayari sa inyo dahil ang dami nyo. baka 2 planes pa need nyo nyan  ;D

kung ganyan kadami, ok mag DIY pero try mo mag compute na lang din ng gastos ng DIY vs quotation ng travel agency. kung konti lang naman difference e di mag travel agency ka na lang para pwedeng mag sitting pretty di ba? :D

^ Yun din ang iniisip ko sis eh.. 19 pax lang ang kayang i-accomodate ng ITI. Oh nose... Transfer pa lang, sumasakit na ulo ko.  ::) Pero sis, sa tingin mo, for balikbayan, anong mas OK na puntahan? El Nido or PPS?

Sis, may WIFI ang Marina Garden. Pero wala talagang electricity sa El Nido ng 6AM-3PM. Marina Garden has a generator though. You may ask them if there's a work around ;)

mga sisses may papunta ba sa inyo sa el nido oct.19-22? pupunta kasi kami 4pax baka may gustong makisabay sa van ^_^

may kamahalan ang airfare from puerto to el nido, ang liit pa ng plane @_@

sis maika mas mabuti siguro ipaayos mo sa agency ang tours niyo, sigurado naman malaki ang discount niyo kasi madami kayo :)

depende kasi sa mga gusto nila. u know naman pag bagets they love to swim and walang kaso yun akyat baba sa boat para sa mga snorkeling activities hehe. puro ganito pa naman pag el nido. pero kung medyo "young once" na e syempre di nila bet yun akyat baba sa boat di ba.  ;D

mas madali siguro if mag PPS na lang kayo. at least Honda Bay at Dos Palmas yun mga beach-related activities (pag el nido kasi e yun island hopping tours ang katumbas). tapos Underground River. saka pag PPS less sakit ng ulo for u kasi dami naman flights dun. ayun nga lang, uulit ka na naman ng PPS. hehe.  ;D

another option sis na hindi palawan e bohol. ok din sa mga balikbayan yun :D

gandang pm mga ka sisters!
sis maika-sa dami nyo mas okey kung pa-arrange nalang kayo
sa travel agency at isa pa me senior cet. kayong kasama mas maganda
na ang hassle free at kasi nga malayo pa biyahe. 
mahirap if mag DIY lang kayo.
enjoy palawan....
