My First Boracay Trip

Here's a quick view of our adventure in Boracay as First-Timers.

Because we’ve always wanted to go to Boracay and believing that we’re so pitiable that we’re the only ones left who hasn’t been to Boracay, I was always on the look-out for low fares. And thanks again to Cebu Pacific, we were able to reach the desired island, with only 1,200PHP back and forth airfare. The thing here, though, is that, the trip back is in Kalibo.

The Cebu Pacific plane to Caticlan was smaller than usual, which again heightened my fear and worries during boarding. But with prayer, I was able to get through the flight, without any tension. J The flight from Manila to Caticlan was actually smoother than the flight from Kalibo to Manila (bigger plane). Now I know, the bumpiness may have to do more with the outside condition than the size of the plane.

Anyway, this is how our day went for the 3D/2N vacation (or more likely 2D/2N):
