Hi sisses!!!!

I'm back  kwento muna ko...

Day 1 - from airport diretso kami sa Lourdes Wharf for the Honda Bay. Sinundo kami ng tricycle na ina-arrange ni sis Tiara. Nagpa-stop kami kay kuya driver sa sari-sari store for the water and chips.  Along the way nakita ko yung mga Inns, GoHotels, Coras Souvenir Shop, Skybox, Mitra's Ranch, madadaanan pa lang tong mga to papunta sa Lourdes Wharf. 10:00am andun na kami, madami ng tao. Unfortunately, wala ng boat so kailangan sumama kami sa ibang group para makapag-Honday Bay. While waiting nagpalit na kami ng panligo, we waited for 30 mins for the boat. 16 pax kami sa boat, 3 groups.

Pandan Island - we arrived 11am, that's the reason siguro wala ng mga fresh catch na inaalok. Dun na lang kami nag-lunch sa may bandang gitna, puro grill tinda nila, my bad I forgot the name. Set meal na sya, 150 for grilled liempo with rice, 180 for grilled samaral with rice. madami naman yung servings ng liempo and one whole medium size for the fish. the liempo is very tender, parang inadobo muna bago inihaw kase ang lasa nya. masarap sya, ako nakaubos sa order ni bf hehe. we bought fresh buko for our drinks naman, binalik ko yung buko ko kase ang asim na ng sabaw and matigas na yung laman, niyog na ata yun. pinalitan naman nila. after lunch, snorkel na kami. ang daming isda! lapit na nga nila sa pampang eh, though yung mga isda eh hinde makukulay ok na rin, nakakatakot sa dami. 2pm umalis na kami papuntang starfish island.

Starfish Island - nung nakita namin yung island nag decide na lang kaming 3 grupo na wag ng bumaba. wala kaming nakitang kakaiba para dayuhin pa, tsaka dami din naka-dock na boat.

Pambato Reef - sad, pagdating dun umulan ng malakas. pero kahit maginaw, go pa rin kami, sayang naman kasi. kala ko nga may turtle sanctuary dun kase may malaki silang design ng turtle. madami dami naman nag sno-snorkel kahit maulan at maalon. ganda ng corals and madaming fish na makulay. though mas marami pa kong nakitang maganda na corals like sa Balicasag, Coron and El Nido. nakakalungkot lang kase sira na yung ibang parts, may area dun na restricted na sa swimmers kase sabi nung nagbabantay kawawa na daw yung mga corals, nasira na talaga.

sayang close pa snake island, para tuloy hinde sulit Honda Bay namin.

4:00pm nasa Lourdes wharf na kami, kala ko madaming pila sa shower room hinde pala. yung iba kase mga naka-van sa hotel na siguro sila magpapalit. kase kami diresto Sabang kaya kailangan magpalit at magbanlaw. 4:30 sinundo na kami ni kuya trike. 5:00pm nasa city na kami, since 6pm pa bukas ng Ka Lui tambay muna kami sa Itoy's. Coffee is ok lang, for me mahal lang yung price considering nasa province sya, 105 small and 145 medium size frapp.

Ka Lui - after 5 yrs nakabalik din ako ng ka lui...and daming pinagbago, lumaki na place nila. nag-expand sila sa likod, wala na yung lumang cr na may malaking kabibe  dahil nagmamadali na kami at andyan na sundo namin, tinake-out namin yung free fruits sa ka lui...

7pm - travel to Sabang...9pm nasa sabang na kami...inulan kami sa daan buti na lang magaling yung driver namin, mabilis pero alam mong alam nya ginagawa nya 

Tip: sabi ni kuya trike pwede daw magpa-reserve sa Honda Bay, may kakilala daw sya dun. muntik na kase kaming hinde makasakay.

to be continued...

^ dahil 6 days kayo sis you may want to consider going to El Nido na rin.

Sis vshe.. nagpaquote na ko., di kaya ng budget.. 10k/pax 
tight budget kami eh.. hehe

[babybubot]

^ay sis sayang naman kahit picture taking lang sa starfish hehe, ako kasi pinatos ko lahat ng makita ko hahaha!

Sa pambato reef nakakita kami ng turtle pero isa lang, umuulan din nung dumating kami pero huminto din agad.

Sa mga mag city tour kung umuulan pwede nyo na siguro i-skip ang Crocodile Farm lalo na kung nakatrike lang kayo, pasakit ang daan papunta don maputik at lubak-lubak at ang layo pa.

Sis vshe.. nagpaquote na ko., di kaya ng budget.. 10k/pax 
tight budget kami eh.. hehe

Sis baka you want to try DIY tour. I can give referral sa van if u want.
Try mo lang compare yung gastos.

[mom_she]

[yciel]

hay pahirapan sa pagkuha ng permits for
 Underground River (blockbuster talaga)
 kaya sa mga sisses natin na plan mag
palawan please,booked it in advance
para siguradong makapag underground kayo....
See you there!!!

[imyourangel]

I loved our PP tour. Super worth it and hassle-free lahat, kasi effort ng tour guides even yung lunch namin. And when we got off the airport, VIP welcome pa.

[matetreyes]

sisses, may resort na pala sa san vicente, palawan. capari resort yung name. mura lang din sya. a reason to book another pps flight!

[sexy_07]

Question lang po, kung 2 lang kayong magta-travel and mag UR and HB tour kayo, pano yung mga gamit niyo? may mapag-iiwanan ba dun, na hindi mawawala yung mga valuable things? or dala-dala pa din ninyo?

[babybubot]

^sis kung backpacker ka pwede mo ng bitbitin yun siguro, pero kung medyo madami iwan mo na lang sa hotel. Mahirap din kasi mag tour ng madaming bitbit. Saka yung tour guide naman binabantayan yung gamit ng mga guests.

[sexy_07]

babybubot - ang worry ko lang kunwari magswimming or snorkling kayo ng sabay, walang mapag iiwanan ng gamit. Hindi naman siguro malikot mga kamay nila. Thanks sis

tiara - sent you an email

[babybubot]

^sis yan din ang unang problema ko nung nasa tour na di ko maiwan yung slr bag ko since andun din lahat ng cash ko. Baka kasi bigla na lang may humablot di mapansin kasi busy lahat. Pero so far wala pa naman akong naririnig na may nawalan ng gamit habang nasa tour. Binabantayan din kasi nga ng mga tour guide ang gamit ng guests nila. Makakasira sa kanila pag may ganon pangyayari.

[mom_she]

how about po underwater camera how much po pa-rent nila? tia!

March 4 this year arrived PPS, we booked all arrangements in advance( Feb.first week) hotel and Underground tour,(essential to travel light and  bring flip flops and insect repellant)
 (this trip is really money-worth)road is ok, the travel is smooth and fun, lunch is satisfactory in another beach/resort area, a staple location by pps underground booking offices.
the boatguide was entertainning and so is our tour guide.
 Yung mga nakausap namin after we arrived at the hotel,  very disappointed sila kasi fully booked na ang underground river tour for weeks. Mega Satisfied kami sa tour and even roamed around the city in 2 days, even did couples spa, tried viet resto,the authentic badjao resto, travelled to bakers hills etc.
I would commend Hotel Centro, based on rates, good place,service, nice food (they have different buffet themes every night.You would love those drinks from their soulful cocktail bar facing the pool with jacuzzi(the ambience was like that of the hotel pool scene from Sex and the city2.

[VShe]

We arrived at PPS yesterday. Haaaay! Delayed kami ng mga 20-30mins via airphil.
Very good weather here sana hangang sa tuesday (6days kami dito) hehe especially tomorrow.
Prenup nami tomorrow sa honda bay kami pupunta sana naman di madelay flight ni photog bukas

[VShe]

Pupunta kami sa Mt. Calvary today. Sana maging okay ang pagakyat. Good luck sa asthma haha
