Palawan, Day Three

On our last day in Palawan, we got to see more of Puerto Princesa City.  

But, first, some last minute souvenir and pasalubong shopping...

Now, off to the city tour!

First stop: Binuatan Creations

We entered the weaving showroom where you can watch how they skillfully create lovely, colorful things using this handloom.

 You can also visit their store just beside the weaving showroom if you want to buy the finished products. There's a variety of things to choose from!

After a really quick shopping, we headed to our next destination:

The Crocodile Farm

 

There are still a lot of stories to tell and photos to show  so stay tuned! :)

From Starfish Island, we hopped to 2 more islands.

Welcome to Snake Island! According to Philippines Travel Wiki it got its name because it has an elongated shape. Mangroves grew on the southern end of the island while most of its northern section is made of white sand that stretches about 2km long. On high tide, most of its long sand bar sinks underwater.

 Our last stop was at Pandan Island where we just made tambay. We were already tired, hahaha! This is also where you can rinse with fresh water after a whole day of swimming in sea water and before going back to the mainland.

The kids just played on the sand this time

  Then we went back to Honda Bay where our ride to our place was waiting to take us home.

From the airport, a shuttle brought us to Ysabelle Mansion where we booked for a 3 days and 2 nights stay.

After checking-in, our tour guide came and it was time for some Island-hopping. By the way, it was my sister-in-law's sister who's in-charged of all the arrangements regarding the the tour package.

On to our first island...

Hey, lookie! Say hello to Mr. Starfish! And my Bro. Hehehe!

Hello, Patrick the Starfish hehehe

The cousins get refreshed!

Love these kids to bits

After having lunch, we rested a little then went back to our boat to head to our next island adventure!

It's More Fun in the Philippines, Part 1

Last May, 2011, my brother, Brian and his family came home from the States for a short vacation. It was also my first time to meet my nephew, Ady! As always, whenever they visit, we see to it that we go somewhere to bond and enjoy. 

We went to Boracay when he went home in 2006, I was 10 weeks pregnant.

Then, for his 2008 visit, we went back to Boracay, now with Hubby and Boninay!

We booked our flight at Cebu Pacific. Here's Ady, checking his luggage in, hehe! 

Boninay's 3rd plane ride, 1st was when she was in my tummy and 2nd was in 2008!
