summer fun

from april 19 to 22, my family and i disappeared from the face of the earth. kidding. actually, we went to panglao island and stayed in bohol beach club. like boracay, panglao has miles of white sand and the clearest, bluest sea. unlike boracay, there was no crowd.

day 1: waiting for our plane was a nightmare. we came hours early just in case. as it turned out, we didn't need to. our flight was doomed to be delayed anyway. from 7:30 am to 1:00 pm, i amused myself by draining my ipod's battery, eating my second breakfast for the day and counting the number of flip flops worn by the endless sea of passengers. we did make it to bohol (eventually), but because of the hours worth of waiting, i fell asleep before enjoying the beach.

day 2: we took a tour of the very old churches of bohol, tarsiers, the chocolate hills, a butterfly sanctuary, and ate lunch while cruising the loboc river. that afternoon, my mom and i finally hit the beach. finally. :)

day 3: exhausted. i stayed in the room the entire day.

day 4: before leaving for manila, my dad and i tried out their pool. it wasn't anything special. :P

pictures!

did you know that tarsiers commit suicide if they're unhappy? :(

the not-so-chocolate hills

if you ignore that weird girl in yellow, you'll see that panglao beach really is as gorgeous as i say it is. ;)



verse for the day:
then God said (to man and woman), "I give you every seed-bearing plant on the face of the whole earth and every tree that has fruit with seed in it. they will be yours for food. and to all the beasts of the earth and all the birds of the air and all the creatures that move on the ground—everything that has the breath of life in it—I give every green plant for food." and it was so. [genesis 1:29-30]
