Late post...
*********************************************************************************
We've been planning our Boracay get away since 2012. But due to our very tight schedule we we'rent able to push trough.
Homer and Icehl (husband and wife and is now based in Australia) will be coming home again for Christmas and since they will only be here for for more or less a month we decided to clear our schedule and PUSH with the get away.
We wanted the trip to be organized as possible due to our very limited time as well as budget friendly so we decided to book our ticket as early as November (our travel date will be on January but it is always best to book months ahead if you wanted the best rate). At first we wanted to see if we can do DIY but then I got overwhelm with the choices and the "what to" and "where to".
We kind of have different preference tho on where to stay. We were considering the two balik bayan so one suggested a posh place to stay but then I "argued" that we will not be staying on our room most of the time so first class accommodation is just as waste of money (im on a tight budget hahaha). Good thing husband and wife leave all the desicion making to us my budget is safe :P
So on with the booking. And no accommodation is available.
Ichel suggested Travelonline a to assist us in our booking. They have the most buget friendly packages Boracay Packages. Ms. Marie was very helpful in assisting us and giving us the best deal. (visit their website for the complete list of packages
TRAVELONLINE).
Plane Ticket (check). Accomadation (check).
With the important details taken cared of all we had to do is wait for January 24, 2014 to come!
THERE'S NO SUCH THING AS THE "PERFECT PLAN". I should have known better.
Out of the six two made cancellation the last minute. They have a valid reason tho but still I was disappointed but nothing can spoil this trip so we were determined to enjoy!
Again we have very limited time so as ussual our plan was "Do as many activities and see as many places as possible".
We have an early flight and knowing the traffic condition (commute going to the airport to avoid hassle) we decided to meet early.

because we were excited to do some exploring we forgot to change our clothes. so I practically hurry up everyone to go back to our room and change.
Dinner at the HILL HOUSE.
We met Manet and Ate Lot's cousin who happen to reside in boracay (they also own the only bookstore on the island) and invited us to have dinner at their house.
The house I had to say FABULOUS!
Night time in the island will never be boring. One can party the night away with countless of clubs but since we're really not the party kind of crowd we decided to just walk around "D Mall".
