My friend, Maureen and I, having our birthdays a week a part decided to make a pact and travel each year to where we want to. And previously we went to Coron Palawan. The adventure was quick, challenging and breathtaking. I remember having the first day holding umbrellas for the rain which was wierd considering the place only experiences 1-2 typhoons in a year. What are the odds?! and the next I was holding on to my camera, shades with my sister posing in front of me for a bright ang shiny photos of hers.
Anyway here are some pictures.
We Stayed at Coron Village Lodge which served gigantic servings of great food
and we had a tour guide named Jojo who is so friendly,
doesn't want tip and knows Coron down to its history.
We went to Maquinit Hot Springs on the first day which was relaxing but I heard its also good to come here at night after a trek to relax your tired muscles.
The Sun rose happily on the second day and so was I with my anti-mosquito bracelet
ready to roam around Coron with my game face on. ^ ^,
We went Shopping... (don't miss my sister being caught happy and excited on that mirror)
Walking around...
And yes... no time to waste when you have fishes waiting to greet you on those clear waters.
We also manage to go to the market and rode their really cool tricycles.
We also enjoyed the night in Coron Village Lodge's Restaurant
The place is just
so artsy it makes you want
to stay there and take pictures of each and every corner.
On the 3rd day... We made the most of our day before saying goodbye by too much soaking, snorkeling, swimming, sight-seeing and all words letter "S" because Coron is just SUPER!!!
this is me, with a fake and confuse look of leaving this beautiful Island.
Then decided to be happy to ride the plane with my adventures inside my pocket.
Everything in this trip was so nice even the clouds was making us feel great about it.
Reminders when going to Coron:
1. Wear rubber sandals when you go snorkeling, diving, etc... there are lot of sea urchins.
2. Wear an anti-mosquito bracelet like I did and bring anti-mosquitto repellants or something. The mosquitos in Kayangan lake are not dangerous but their bites are big and they're actually really big too.
3. An underwater Camera is a must-have.
4. Sunblock
5. Stretch before the treks
6. Enjoy the food. But if you're vegetarian like me, vegetables are expensive in Coron. They have more meat than greens so you may opt for chickens and fish. They preserve the mountains as it is so they don't do mass planting of vegetables to secure its beauty.
7. Take lots of photos and don't forget to bring home pasalubongs: Dried fishes, nuts, pearls, decors and a lot more.
