Sorry guys this is quite a long post... I wanna tell the world.. how
special having a Yey! vacation with my one and only honie J with the Y--c--o
Jayson Yco!
I
know i'm a little late on this but i want to share some photos of our vacation
in Puerto Princesa Palawan last September 14, 2013, celebrating JYco's birthday
slash short vacay...
me and my jay (nervous and excited) arriving at
PPS International Airport
First
Quarter:
So....
no further redo
First
stop -- GO hotel...
I
know Jay was very excited for our first adventure but first, we need to
deposit our luggage to Go hotel.
North Road Brgy. San Manuel, Palawan 5300 Puerto Princesa Palawan.
Go hotel is conveniently located at 3 minute walk fron Robinson Mall Palawan
Depositing
your luggage is optional because you can make an early check-in in Go Hotel,
but it will cost you about Php 560 or something (sorry but i forgot the exact
price guys) and luggage deposit was only Php 50.00/luggage per day.

details about our Go hotel experience : GO HOTEL
Second
Quarter:
Second
stop --- main activity for the first day, HONDA BAY ISLAND HOPPING!
We
didn't avail a Tour Package for our Honda Bay Island Adventure because
according to my research it is better to have a d.y.i Honda Bay trip, why?
because you can control the time you spent in every island.
Our
first plan was to join the other group and share the boat cost which is Php
1300 something but unfortunately we fail. We can't find a group who are willing
to join us because at that time most of the group was consist of two big
families so yah! we have no choice, we ended up renting the whole boat.
private tour, yey!
Pambato Reef was close at that time so we
just took a picture of it
Our
first island was the STAR FISH Island, which is obviously all about
starfish! you can do nothing much here but just enjoy the white
sand and find some star fish for the picture taking.
me in starfish island - enjoying the view
and afraid of the sun!
jay in starfish island -- he looks so happy!
Second
isaland was the PANDAN Island, which is my fave out of three islands that we
visited. I love snorkeling is best here than in Cowrie Island. Best
20 ft. view in my entire life! Beautiful corals and the fish, actually i'm
thinking that they've trained the fish there, you know... its like they knew that
they are the reason why we went to Pandan island. feeling ko nagpo-pose sila
for picture taking especially nemo! the clown fish ahahaha! Ganda tlga!
jay and me in Pandan island
Last island was the Cowrie Island, i
am super exhausted na so i decided to just chill there, we ordered buko juice
and we make a Palawan thingy out of starfish that we patiently collect,
actually jay was more patient than me in collecting those starfish. So
yah! i think that's it! our Cowrie Island activities.

And oh! don't forget to rent snorkel and the shoe thingy plus the camera case and dry pack for you phone (very important!) or better yet don't bring your expensive phone, jay was so excited that he forget to seal our dry bag and so our phone was drenched with salt water both our note 2 and other gadget was damaged... so sad... but what can we do que sera sera diba?
A
lot was happened during this adventure, drenched gadget and miscalculated
budget but all in all we enjoy the HONDA BAY ISLAND HOPING ADVENTURE... i
think it's all worth it!
third
quarter:
After
Honda Bay we went back to Go Hotel... Its already 3:30 pm - check in..
sleep.. 6:00 PM -- freshen up prepareing for the our dinner but first we went
to Robinson for cellphone service something as i mentioned earlier our phone
was drenched.
Third
stop --- KA LUI!
According to
the blogs that I've read before going to PPS, Ka Lui is the most visited
Seafood Restaurant in Puerto. It is a must visit place among tourist, so we decided to check it out!
A
week before our vacation i emailed Ka Lui
(online@kauirestaurant.com) they replied about the set A set B schedule
something and so i choose set A then after that i didn't receive a
confirmation, i don't know what happen to my reservation. So on the day of
our vacation, i called Ka Lui about my email regarding reservation they told
me that they didn't received an email or something regarding my reservation,
tsk! minus point for Ka Lui.. anyways so ayon nga i made another reservation
na lang.. 8 o'clock ng gabi of that same day.
I've
read a lot of blog post about Ka Lui so i know what to expect na... no shoes
allowed, barefoot dapat blah blah blah! but as soon as we arrive the place, i
got amazed... galing ng concept! the picture that i saw on blogs is really
true, the interior... the ambiance.. the people... wow! As we entered the
restaurant, a friendly staff greeted us and guide us to their receiving area,
and asked us to place our slippers in a basket or more like a bayong,
barefooted no shoes allowed, and as soon as we place our slipper the staff
immediately assist us to table.
We
ordered the Ka Lui's special and as for our drinks, buko juice annnd sorry
guys i forgot what i ordered for myself.. LOL! plus 3 bottles of beer
anyways, as we waited for our food to be serve jay took some pictures of
paintings... on the wall... ceiling..everywhere! then he took some picture of
me a.. i don't know maybe a hundred time i think? hahaha!
After
a minutes of wait our food arrived, we eat and talk and i greeted him a happy
birthday! i wanted to sing hhappy birthday for him but i think he is still
depressed about what happens to his cellphone so i decided to greet him na
lang with a smile...
|
I know he took a lots of pictures but i'm kinda tired to upload,
some of it was just a plate or something hahaha!... maybe you guys can check it
out on my facebook.
All
in all Ka Lui is indeed a beautiful place... a must visit! the food is cheap
but delicious some says it is overated but for me.. you must come to Ka Lui and
exeperienced what we\ve experience, it's really uhmmm basta! Two thumbs up for
Ka LUI
forth
quarter: Last stop for the day --- Go Hotel! why? we need to sleep! feeling
exhausted ... and we need to wake up early the next day for our next activity
which is Under Ground River Tour, yay!
Overtime:
Our first day was a expect the unexpected day.. we've spent more than half of
our budget and we've experienced some odd and not so good things. September 14,
2013 was definitely one of my unforgettable day of my entire life!
till
next post -- PPS part 2 -- Underground River Tour plus church plus pasalubong!
plus love love love!
Thank
you and God bless
