My summer get-away

Before proceeding to the platform of the program, recognition and moving up was really like a mountain journey for me and now, Iam standing confidently because I already reach the goal of going there. With a wide smile, and when someone is taking a picture of you in this significant moment is indeed a treasure that will remain in my heart forever. My highschool life would not be this successful If the people around me didn't help me to reach the mountain peak.

Being frustrated and exhausted because of schoolworks is really stressful, we all deserve a peaceful mind and a calming place.

A week after the moving up, I was shocked when my mom told me to pack my things because we're going somewhere far, really really far. Iam somehow curious about it ang got my nerves so excited until she finally says "We're going to Palawan, Puerto Princesa." To my surprised, I did hug my mom so tight! Ugh! The best mom ever!

I'm going to post my pictures here and my perspective about experiencing PALAWAN, PUERTO PRINCESA.

1, So the most finally awaited day came, we need to go in the Airport 2 hours earlier of the flight. Because its better early and to be sure about the flight than to be late and left by the plane.

All my things are packed. Ready to go!

2. Arrived at NAIA I by 10:46AM. Before everything else we decided to have a lunch meal

at the airport to satisfy our hunger.We need to save the energy for later. So excited! Yay!

3.. When you see them, they make you feel wanting more to travel the world. Salute to the people who make the travelling time easier for us.

Look at my grandfather, so busy! Notice me po. Love you!

4. Time for requirements checking. Hope we can go there sooner. What took everything so long? Or its just me that was so bored?

5. Finally! The tix though, I've been waiting for you since last week. To hold you and to hold you tightier. hahahaha lol corny

6. Waiting area of boarding to Cebu Pacific Air Bus and soon to our plane destination. But wait...

7. The unknown foreigner caught really my attention, she's so simple that I even took her a stolen photo. How can someone looks too perfect in a messy bun?

8. Long wait is over! Here's the plane behind me as you can see it, obviously! Since it was my first time to ride a plane, Its a non-stop smiling for me. When I was younger, it was only a dream to ride a plane and now Iam going to fulfill that dream and live the life to the fullest!! Not being a childish but this is awesome, honestly. And fly up in the sky is one of my dreams too.

I love stars so much, I even wish to hug them all and talk to them all night long. The flight would be more fun when there's a star up there, but its really impossible to have stars during daytime. How I wish. How I really really wish. Lol, seems impossible.

9. "Hi po." I said. She replied with a sincere smile. I understand her although she's taking care of other passenger's boarding tickets.

This is the only picture that I posted to facebook.

10. So my mom took a stolen photo of me before departing Manila. I look no reaction their but honestly Iam nervous and excited.

My first plane shot. One of my favorite picture. The ambiance looks so calming.

For me, the most terrifying moment there is when the plane is going up. It makes a sudden dizziness.

11. Our window view, I'm so inlove with the cotton-like clouds! They're beautiful! All I can only do is stare them in the whole trip even it really makes my eyeballs hurt. But, it is love. You'll sacrifice for the things you love even it hurts you. (hugot hahaha)

12. Arrived at Puerto, Princesa Airport by 4:01PM. I didn't have the chance to sleep at the airplane, that's why myself is really drained. And because its summer, the temperature in Puerto, Princesa is really hotter than in Manila. I'll be needing sunblock!

We waited at the airport a half hour because we have a service going to our temporary house. We even ride a tricycle. On my observation, the public transportation there is a much bigger tricycle than a normal tricycle in Manila. It looks slightly different!

Night at the bay.

13. Street full of foods!! Because there's too many delicious food, I can't choose properly. And now Iam having a hard time to pick, wow first time! Lol.

I tried the strawberry ice cream too! Since I want to explore this kind of food here, we even tried many more but of course I have this personality of not taking a picture of every food I eat.

Awesome way to ease a tiring trip way there is food and some breeze of the wind.

DAY 2: Underground River

14. We are finally going! Yes, we are going to underground river. Where it is included in the "7 WONDERS OF THE WORLD" I do love adventure, It makes me crave more. It also makes things memorable because Iam with the love of my life, my family.

Our private transportion tour!

The zigzag way to underground river is one of the most nausoeus road travel I've ever experience. You should bring more plastic bag If you have a weak stomach.

Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park

We still have to wait for our tour permit.

Patience, I need more patience.

Although there's so many tourists here. Everyone by group must rent their own boat to reach the destination which is the island of the Underground River, So here's our private boat. Finally!!!

My family. I love them.

There is my auntie, enjoying the sea vibes! On our way to the island. Its a 20 minutes travel, Anyway, they called the travel a short hike from the town of Sabang.

I love the view from the island! God really amazed me by His works, I love His creation but I love Him more!

Refreshing summer is all I need and here it is. We reach the island and there, we are accomodated by the staff to wear a radio speaker. Safety first!

Outfit of the day.

We patiently wait outside the cave, and its finally our turn to go inside at 11:21AM. Hashtag selfie!

Family picture before going inside the river.

This is the closer view of the entrance to underground river-cave, And because its really dark in the cave, camera's quality can't clearly picture it. So I decided to put my phone in my bag and instead enjoy the moment. We have a tour guide so we can learn and be familiarize to the formation of rocks in the cave and another boat that it is smaller one now.

The feeling inside the river is just so soothing, I expected it to be too hot inside that's because its a sacred place. But in opposite, the temperature there is cooler, Its like you are inside of the refrigerator.

They also found a cave dome measuring 300 m (980 ft) above the underground river, rock formations, large bats, a deep water hole in the river, more river channels, and another deep cave, as well as marine creatures and more. Deeper areas of the underground river are almost impossible to explore due to oxygen deprivation.

I witnessed the cathedral rock formation inside the cave, there are also a formation that looks a real-like people, food, animals and bible scenarios. What a historic place!

Our view leaving the underground river, I'm really missing it already.

They give me a survey after the boat ride and I commented "Wonderful" because it is really indeed a wonderful place!

Leaving the island.

You must go here at PUERTO PRINCESA, PALAWAN when you are planning to travel, bring your family also for extra-fun! You should never missed this kind of place! I promise you, you'll never regret it.

DAY 3: Beach

To reach the ABORLAN, BEACH we need to ride a much bigger boat. They decided to have our lunch at the middle of an island. In our view, we are only the land there and we can't see other islands. We also intact a tent to be our protection from the sun rays

White sand and the clear water of the beach. Furthermore, look at the clouds!

I love this view, feels like that Iam a survivor from an unknown island. Hahahaha

Looks who's irritated at the sand. They keep sticking on my feet. My mom told me not to go inside the tent with those sand. Share hahahahha!!

DAY 4: Going back to Manila
