great escape to boracay

Hi everyone (^^)
I'm back from Boracay! Spent 6 days there (actually 4 full days in Boracay); Nov 30 to Dec 5 - the first and last days were spent travelling. We considered ourselves very lucky as a typhoon had just left Boracay on the day we arrived, and on the day we left, a super typhoon was bound for Boracay - so we had good weather while we were there.

If you were wondering, Boracay is a small island in the Philippines with white beaches and really really clear water (we had a lot of fun while we were there) - probably one of the best beaches I've been to so far woohoo


We reached Boracay at night due to the bad weather at Kalibo so we didn't manage to get a good view of the sea because it was very dark when we arrived.


On our first day there, we tried out quite a fair bit of activities.

We did helmet diving in the morning - they basically place this 22kg helmet on our shoulders with a tube supplying air to you while you're 3 metres underwater (IT WAS VERY COOL)

After helmet diving we went banana boating woots
Our parents went on a different boat from us because they didn't want to go fast like us haha
Cheryl and my sis fell off the banana boat LOL v funny


We decided to do the ATV in the afternoon (which is this vehicle that looks like a motorbike but has four wheels?? idk HAHA) but I rode the buggy because I didn't want to crash LOL

We rode up to the top of this mountain with a really good bird's eye view of the whole Boracay
