Remember my El Nido posts? I'm quite in the mood to post something more so this will be the last of it. I know I showed nice photos of this remote island but never really discussed much about it. Basically this island was named after the If you want to check more detailed info, just click here. The official town site can answer more of your curiosity than my words =) All I can say is that you'll never regret going to this island for a fun, relaxing and "yummy" experience! Here is where you can experience nature both land and water with natural falls, lagoons, caves and many islands. This is also the heart of asian Nido Oriental soup delicacy for its famous Nido edible nest-gathering started. Truly an enchanting place!
By the way this was my first ever out of town experience which lasted for 9days without any family member or my bestfriend. My parents are quite strict so I'm more limited going out. How did I get away with it? Call it the perks and privileges of being married and a professional. I simply told them I will have to go there in Palawan to do ocular in the resort for the renovations so I can design accordingly and the client was requesting me to come over. My husband was ok with it so what does my parents have to say? hehehe! We had to exchange calls & texts though so they won't worry.
I was more than amazed to know that my friend's mom has acquired many properties there in that island. Their family's also known there, a very prominent one. Aside from Lally & Abet Beach Resort I was toured around to see the other properties that might be developed in time. This Little Boracay place we visited is way underdeveloped that the main shore. This is an ideal place for backpackers who just want to have a very simple life at the beach. Mind you, no electricity here =)
Nathz & I shared a room and it was really big for both of us. That's what you get for being a special guest too =) Both of us are shutterbugs so whenever we're in the room we play with our cameras setting it to auto mode and have numerous shots. Crazy girls? Nah, I'll say girls just wanna have fun!
Who says you can't enjoy pizza in an island? We actually got addicted to this local pizza called "capriciosa" and we actually ate in that place for 3 consecutive days! One of the last we tried was the marinara pizza which is an all seafood pizza. Can you see the calamari rings there? Funny that we were more than willing to spend quite much for this while we can eat anything in the resort restaurant free of cost! It's quite a walk from my friend's resort to Marbers and you can also use kayak if you wish too but we didn't want to get wet anymore so a nice leisurely walk by the shore was enough. Also since it's a very small town we went to Balay Tubay bar one night just to roam around and bought pizza and juice! There was a band playing but we only went there for their capriciosa in which we didn't like much.
Nathz & I having fun under the rain! One thing I learned from this kayaking experience on a rainy day, wear a life vest to keep you warm! hehehe it was so cold with the cool breeze blowing on your every paddle plus we were caught by a passing storm. The water was really warm so it's very nice to have a dip and swim but not to be up there out of the water playing. Wearing a sheer shirt won't help at all so a lifevest will save you from freezing. =) We were lucky enough that the water was calm despite the rain so we were able to go quite far with our kayak. I can't enjoy the snorkeling coz I'll need special goggles to see underwater. My specs sure was trusty during this water fun.
How about you, will you go for some work offer like this?
