Palawan Puerto Princesa Day 3

Our Last day in puerto princesa...Island hopping!!
waahhh! This was last year pa so i kinda forgot some islands that we stopped over..
picked up by the tour van at 8am..off to honda bay port..the port is around 30mins aways from the city..

first island where we had our lunch..

activities: swimming, ,snorkeling..

Snake island..if you look to its aerial view, you'll see a long stretch of sand

which looks like a snake from above..good for snorkeling

Last stop, snorkeling in the middle of the ocean..i found nemo! hehe..

di ko nga lang macapture sa pic..

Went back to manila before sunset..back to the real world again..

Palawan Puerto Princesa Day 2

Went up early caus the tour van will fetch us around 8AM. 2nd day is for the underground river.. It took us around 1-2hrs ride to the boat port where they will take you to the island itself.. Better if you arrive at the port early so you will be the first in line...During weekends or holidays, a lot of people go there so expect to wait for 2hrs for a boat to arrive which will fit only 6 persons excluding the the bangkero..

On the way to the port..our van was fast, felt like riding in a roller coaster...

Drop-off point (about 5mins walk to the underground river)

Exiting the underground river

resort beside the port where we had our free buffet lunch c/o tour...

KaLui restaurant

a restaurant that has a traditional filipino ambiance..

great food and environment...10 mins from the airport

Palawan Puerto Princesa Day 1

Day 1: we stayed in dangkalan beach resort for 2 nights. The 3 day tour with accomodation for two is P5000/pax. I think this package is already good for the 3 day-tour.

morning:
Arrived at puerto princesa
fetch by Dangkalan resort van
had lunch beside the beach..by the way Dangkalan resort is a beachfront resort though when we went there it is lowtide..
1:00PM Start of our city tour..

tree house from the resort..too bad somebody already booked

 the tree house that time...

first stop: Crocodile farm..Here you will see a lot of baby crocodiles as well as the skin of the largest crocodile found in the philippines..

2nd stop: Ihawig Penal farm. A wide land with just fences, where prisoners are free to rove around the place. The prisoners who were just allowed to rove around are those with minimum security. Funny thing is that many of the prisoners also brought their family there and live in a small house..the maximum security prisoners are the only ones who are not being exposed..And also i heard that puerto princesa has a low crime rate.

3rd stop: baker's hill - a small place with colorful houses and garden. Whenever you get here, don't forget to buy their famous hopia in monggo and ube flavor. There are also stalls there where you can eat meryenda..ive also tried their halohalo at their restaurant and it was also good..

Went back to the hotel. At dinner, the hotel manager suggested to try the kinabuch restaurant just near the city..so the resort van dropped us there. We had baked greenshells and sizzling sisig for dinner...Yum!! Their prices are very affordable..around P100+ for the sizzling sisig good for 2.

                                          After dinner we went for a walk to their municipal...Theres a lot of tiangge as well as different kinds of food..This is during the christmas season therefore most of the food being sold there were bibingka and puto bungbong..

Bangkok 2009

Went to bangkok to attend my friends wedding..a lot has changed since i been there..What i miss the most are the foods!! So cheap yet very delicious!! i only stayed there for 3 days so damn, super bitin talaga..and also i never got the chance to visit any of the cultural spot in bkk. One change ive noticed is their taxis. I love the taxis' colors!!

Thai noodles!!! very healthy and yummy..i miss the ba mee noodles which i used to buy when i was still living there..

bangkok central world..sad to say this bldg was burnt down before because of the rally problem in thailand early this year i think..

ABAC church, university and chapel where we used to go every sunday..Most of the people attending the mass and serving to the mass are filipinos..here we get together and chat..

I will surely go back there next year for more food tripings and shopping!!

pics will be posted soon!

Trying something new

Travelling and eating are two of the things a love doing the most...After a long week of work, i always pamper myself tru eating and going to places where i haven't been before..These are all started when I started to work and earn my own money..And now, i thought of creating a blog on the places where i have already been for the past one year and also all the foods a have tried..
