Jour 5
Boracay Finally
24 juillet 2016, Philippines ⋅ ⛅ 20 °C
So with the cancellations and delays we got here before dark - just! Getting here from Catliclan airport involved two minibuses and a small boat which looked like it wasn't going to start - Boracay is the sort of place that is grown too fast for it's infrastructure - hundreds of motorbikes and motortaxis clog the narrow streets. Although they do have some fancy electric motortaxis. We venture out to the western side of the island and to D'Mall - where I had Mexican Chimichangas for dinner. The whole areas is heaving and this is supposedly the low seaon.Luckily the place we are staying is on the east side which may not have the best beaches but is certaintly quieter (albeit the noisy mainland Chinese families staying in the hotel) - I heard thunder so maybe not so tonight!En savoir plus

Jour 6
Exploring Boracay
25 juillet 2016, Philippines ⋅ ⛅ 20 °C
Walked over to the White beach..wow it's so beautiful. Turquoise coloured sea and white sand and Palm trees when you look one way however bars, shops, restaurants and all manner of people try to sell board trips or massage behind you! Wandered south until the bars thinned out then returned to find somewhere for late lunch - settled on Munchies for Filipino food - cheap and tasty.En savoir plus

Jour 7
Time to relax
26 juillet 2016, Philippines ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C
So today I achieved my objective of getting over the jet-lag - with a lovely relaxing day. Got up at 8 to enjoy the morning rays before it got too warm. Then had lunch at "Munchies" before exploring the Northern part of White beach. Returning to the pool to cool down. I wanted to see the sunset on the western side of the island so walked through the D'Mall again.En savoir plus

Jour 7
Boracay Sunset
26 juillet 2016, Philippines ⋅ ☀️ 21 °C
At 5pm i decided it was time to head back to White beach for the Sunset. So walked through D'Mall again. I was intrigued by the amount of people queing for something called Halo Halo - so we stopped off to buy one - Kay's was Mango Ice and mine pineapple. It's a very elaborate dessert made up of crushed ice, juice, tropical fruits, I've cream and "cornflakes"!! Quite nice.
Halo Halo finished we made out way to the beach which was buzzing - people playing beach volley, football, boat trip touts and kids making sand sculptures - which all said "I ❤ Boracay" - pay to take a photo - which I did.
The sunset was stunning - even though I was sharing the beach with thousands of other amateur photographers trying to get the perfect shot!
Dinner was back in D'Mall at "Spicy Chicken" #4 on trip advisor - my piri piri chicken sandwich with veggie crisps was yummy.
Now time to put on the After Sun and relax with a Malibu and fruit juice.En savoir plus

So it rained last night - and was still wet this morning but this didn't last long. The day started with a swim in the gorgeous ocean - bath water temperature - followed by lots of lounging around back at the hotel - I really want a hammock!!En savoir plus

Jour 9
Boracay to Kalibo
28 juillet 2016, Philippines ⋅ ⛅ 28 °C
So up at stupid o'clock - no sunrise due to rain and cloud - left vote at 7am and was transferred to the small jetty for the short ferry to Malay island - then transferred to large bus for the 2 hour journey to Kalibo - 72km - slow due to small roads and amount of motortaxis the driver has to overtake. Now I need to wait until I can check in at 11:30 - Kay's flight departs at 12:30 - mine at 14:30 - should be in Singapore for 19:40.En savoir plus
