    We were told the sea was likely to be rough due to high winds (great) so we needed to set off early as it would be a slow journey.
    Waded out to the boat again, this time a lot more sheepishly due to the sunburn and cold water mix being quite painful.
    The journey was quite rocky but not as bad as I expected from what they had warned us about. Got back to the mainland with enough time to spare to go buy tshirts from the tourist office and then back in the van for a 3 1/2 journey back to Iloilo. I napped most of the way, although the air con was freezing so I had to put all my layers on.
    When we arrived back I just chilled and did a bit of washing. Spent a while with my feet up to try and get rid of some of the swelling that was accumulating. Got my stuff sorted ready for the week ahead and went to bed.
