Boracay Adventure

After all the destinations that we booked (HK, Singapore, Palawan) that were forfeited due to some important reasons, finally we made it to Boracay! Yehey! :) And we are blessed because our plane tickets and accommodation were sponsored by Kuya Toff, my brother in-law. Another Yehey! :)

 

For the accommodations, we stayed at Boracay Terraces Resort located in Station 1 for two nights. It’s a semi luxury accommodation and has all the basic amenities that a traveler needs, not to mention that the beach is just  a tumbling away, literally in front of the hotel. :)

Our Room: Taj A Suite and its Living Room

For the activities, our reservation was done through myboracayguide. We didn’t able to booked for water activities because the coast guards prohibited those activities due to typhoon, though it didn’t rain the whole day and the weather was ranging from sunny to cloudy. Well that’s ok with us because we already done those water activities before and we wanted to try something new and extreme this time. :)

From our Hotel, we were picked up by free shuttle with Kuya Jojit our tour guide who accompanied and helped us to get through to all our activities.

For the first activity, we tried the Cable Car and Zipline. Can you believe I survived this? A 70 meters heart pounding adventure as you first zipline and then cable car above a truly breathtaking view of the island. Good thing the view of the whole island of Boracay took away my fear of height.

There's more to Boracay than the beach! Our next stop was a 2-hour land tour. The two-hour trip took us to the highest peak in Boracay, where we saw the amazing view of the whole island. It was tiring to climb the stairs but was worth seeing the beautiful Boracay.

It also includes a stop over in a local zoo, Boracay Wildlife Expo, where we encountered with a giant saltwater crocodile, tarantula, monkeys, and tropical birds! Pardon my picture, I don't have the courage to touched and hold those animals except for the birds! Haha! ;p

 
The last stop was down to Puka Shell Beach where we enjoyed the white sand beach. Puka Beach is another beautiful beach in Boracay Island. The beach is quite awesome, far away from other resorts. So if you're looking for a beach less crowded, visit Puka beach too!

Our last activity led us to Happy DreamLand to do some fun loving Buggy Car ride. Hubby enjoyed the driving so much! We were laughing when we took a selfie then na-gutter kami. Hahaha! ;p

When Kuya Jojit told us, if we want to try Sky Cycle, I’m not excited because I’m acrophobic. But hubby wanted to try it so he convinced me, but I gave in eventually. This part really made me cry. There’s a part that we need to turn about 5 degrees, feels like I am about to fall from up high to the ground and couldn’t pedal anymore. I was shouting “I don’t want it anymore!” Haha! I was the only one shouting and crying for help, can’t explain my feelings further. It was like a roller coaster the difference is its pedal powered!  Yes! You need to stamp one’s feet. Good thing, hubby did the pedaling but at the middle of the ride he can take it alone anymore so I need to help him until the finish line.

Plus, take amazing photos inside the famous Trick Art Museum.

 

For our last day in Boracay, we just spent the rest of the morning walking and beach bumming along the shore. For souvenirs, we went to D’ Talipapa over D’ Mall where they sell wider variety of items plus cheaper prices.

So, will we ever go back to Boracay?  Of course! There are many places left unseen, a lot of other activities left un-experienced.  We didn't even get to try Parasailing!!! :( Well, let's just say we made sure there would be something more to go back to. ;)
