Boracay Bound

The sun, the sand, and the sea. Perhaps these are the three most common words that people would utter when asked to describe Boracay. Its popularity assured its spot on every traveler's must visit place list.

Because of the buzz that have been going around the internet on how beautiful this place is, my friends and I picked this place as our first destination in the series of travels we planned.

With less than 3 months to set everything in motion, we checked every airline company that offered promo fares to and from Boracay. It was a funny challenge for us, the promos will be available when we don't have any cash on hand, but would be fully booked when we do have cash.

But thankfully, we were able to secure the tickets and reserve a place to stay.

Let's skip the boring details and proceed to our adventure shall we?

How We Got To Boracay:

If the truth be told, we have no idea how we will be able to get to Boracay. I have pictured getting lost and stuff but surprisingly, we had a hassle free travel. Every one we asked was helpful (not to mention that you can see help desk anywhere you look).

Even without a tripod, we still managed to get a decent photo of us. :)


1. We hop on the plane from Cebu that will take us to Caticlan.

                           


Look! Cotton Candy Clouds. ♥

2. When we got to Caticlan, (we just followed the crowd and arrived at an information desk. hahaha) we asked the information desk where to go from there are paid all sorts of fees. (I will provide a complete list of the expenses incurred on the next post.)

Touchdown Caticlan.

3. Rode a tricycle to Caticlan jetty port.
                            

4. Upon arriving to the port, we paid another set of terminal fees.
                            

5. Waited for a small boat that will take us to Boracay.
                             


After 20 mins (or so)...
                              



BORACAY BABY! :)

The first thing I noticed when I got to boracay was the sand. It was super fine (which made my feet feel like they are having a very relaxing foot scrub. haha.)

The weather was just perfect when we arrived as if welcoming us to this beautiful island.







Day 2 of our Boracay Trip coming up. Stay Tuned. :)

PS. Forgive the amateur photograph. :|
