 POTIPOT ISLAND

That little oblong-shaped island from afar is Potipot Island, as seen from the beach of Dawal Resort in Uacon, Candelaria, Zambales. This is where we rented a boat for only Php 400 round trip.

Dampalitan Island, Malaking Talabaan, Maliit na Talabaan in Padre Burgos, Quezon: Holy Week 2010 Part V

April 24, 2010

This post is  about the places my husband Peter, and I, explored  last  Black Saturday… If you want to start this Padre Burgos beach travelogue from the beginning, please click the following links:

 ~~~oOo~~~ 

 

I woke up the following morning, which was a Black Saturday, at around 4:00 am. The beach was dark except for the moonlit and starlit sky. I can still see the outline of the gorgeous mountain ranges from afar. I stayed inside the tent hoping that Peter will wake up as well… to no avail. So I tried going back to sleep. At 5:00 a.m., I really wasn’t feeling sleepy anymore so I nudged Peter beside me to wake him up. I needed to pee. I didn’t want to go all the way to the public restroom area and pass by the tents of all the other sleeping campers, so I asked Peter to accompany me to a nearby bush instead where I can do number 1. Teehee. By the time we went back to our tent, I saw some fishermen docking their boats and going to our area. Apparently, they were trying to sell us some newly caught Tilapya fish and crabs. I wasn’t really in the mood to buy coz one, we didn’t bring any grill where we can cook it; two, we didn’t know how to make fire; and three, I don’t wanna be too full that it will make me do number 2. I try to avoid doing that whenever we camp. I’d rather stay on a strict diet so my tummy can wait all the way back home or somewhere more civilized where I can relieve myself. But anyway, the fishermen were really very insistent. They even volunteered to borrow the grill of our neighbor campers (who were still sleeping) without their knowledge and also made fire for us with the use of coconut husks. I felt pity for them so we ended up buying Php 120.00 worth of fresh Tilapya. Not bad. It did taste so yummy and I finished one huge piece.

 

The rest of our early morning was spent walking by the beach, still dressed in my makeshift PJs, waiting for the sun to shine.The tide was low and the beach seemed wider that early morning.

Malapascua Island Weekend in Cebu: Day 2

 ~~~oOo~~~

On  our third and final day on this exotic island, Peter and I woke up early to catch the sunrise. Malapascua island is just so  beautiful that early morning, as the sun’s rays cast  its golden glow on the powdery white sands of the beach. Most of the boats were still docked by the shore while a few were out in the ocean, catching some fish, to supply the various resorts lining the island.

After 4 long months, it’s only now that I found the time to continue blogging about this fantastic trip we did in Malapascua last Nov. 28-30, 2009.  It was just two weeks after our Cagbalete Island Getaway and we were off to another destination onceed again. I was browsing at the photos which I didn’t even get to review after the trip and man, not only did I miss this wonderful island, but I missed my long, wavy, sunburnt hair! Haha!

Dungaree Beach in Subic

March 18, 2010

Last March 6, 2010, Saturday, Ninette, Peter and I headed to Subic. We wanted to find a nice beach where we can just relax and enjoy the summer heat. We’ve already tried All Hands beach last February, so we went to the one near it, which is Dungaree Beach. Both beaches by the way are located just after the airport. When you reach the end of the road near the airport, instead of going to Zoobic on your left, you turn right. After a few minutes, you will see the beaches on your left.

Bolinao in Pangasinan - Missing the Beach and Some Friends

March 16, 2010

It’s been a long while since the first time we visited Bolinao, Pangasinan last June 11-12, 2006. I only remembered it when our *foreman, Kuya Angie, saw all our beach photos hanging around the house, and he started talking about his hometown, Bolinao. I said, “Hey Kuya, we’ve been there!” How great would it be if we try to visit the place again this year, after 4 long years. I bet the place is still the same.

*we are currently having my bathroom retiled and the front yard renovated by constructing fences, trellis and gate.
