Boracay -White Beach

The journey getting to Boracay- Cebu Pacific Airlines Manila to Kalibo then 2 hour bus ride to Caticlan's main pier and a 15 minute pumpboat ride to sunny Boracay....... I have always wanted to see, taste and feel the Boracay mystery. Within 5 minutes i learnt to adapt the Boracay lifestyle and that is to chillax, soak up the sun and sip Mango, Coconut, Papaya and Melon shakes. Oh the life.

On the 10th we hired a traditional filipino outrigger to cruise us around Boracay. We did snorkeling, visited Crystal Cove which had two pretty neat caves and finally visited another beach which was amazingly picturesque.. I think it is called Poka Beach??? all this for great $47.65. The trip was only suppose to be 3 hours but you know filipinos can't tell the time we were out for an extra hour.

Boracay a place to see for sure even if you only stay for 4 to 5 days.

Boracay is nice, like Uriah says, except they forget to mention in the brochures that you can't walk 10 steps without being hassled by a vendor of some sort. Everyday you are asked a thousand times whether you want sunglasses, watches, ice cream, lobsters, balut, taho, tattoos, a massage, a boat ride around the island or to rent a bloody atv or dirtbike...

It can get a little annoying if you want to be left alone.. The problem is, everyone is so nice and its sometimes sad to turn them down because they're all just trying to make a living. I've never been called "sir" so many times in my life..
