FAMILY VACAY!
Four days’ vacation on this island is so sulit! Away from
work and annoying officemates lol.. and of course, dati pinapanood ko lang to
or nakikita sa magazine. Ngayun di ko inakala na narating ko na! yey!
But since we didn’t book a hotel, a horrible experience
welcomed us. We almost do camping along the seashore. It was peak season and no
rooms available from Station 1-2 and finally we found a small room in station
3. Better have than nothing anyway.
Me and my uncle are scouting even a 3-star hotel for a much better room to stay but we’re lucky to find the “Las Brisas de Boracay” from station 1. |
Our sea front suite room is quite expensive but worth it! |
