What happens in Bora, stays in Bora (Not all the time)

                        People normally visit Boracay during Summer and December. That's make me different from them....





                         It was 3rd week of November when I  traveled to Boracay. Landed in Kalibo at 6 in the afternoon via Cebu Pacific. Then from Kalibo airport, I took a van going to Caticlan port (port going to Boracay). Travel period from airport to port is around 1 and half hour. Caticlan has an airport, so you can book your flight directly to Caticlan. It just that I ran out of promo fare, so no choice but Kalibo. From port, I took a ferry going to Boracay Island. It was 45minutes travel. Then took another van to Station 2. I checked in at the La Carmela De at around 8:30 in the evening. I stayed in the room for 30 minutes and had a quick shower. Since I was already hungry (tired from travel), I ordered food from the hotel. Their food was good, maybe because I was really starving that time. Then after dinner, I went outside for a walk to see the night life. I heard, Boracay is much exciting at night than in the morning. And yes, after 3 blocks away, it's completely proven. Boracay is indeed a tourist spot, just because I saw a lot of foreigners inside/outside the bar. Then after 5 minutes walking, I decided to have a drink in one of the bars in Station 2, can't remember the name. The beer costs 75pesos that time.  The bar was full of foreigners and a lot of local prostitutes. Yes, prostitutes! I never thought, I would see one inside the bar, but I was wrong. Not just one but a lot! So after 3 bottles of beer, I decided to go back to the hotel, watch tv and rest. Just because I didn't find any prospect that evening.



                      I woke up early next morning so immediately went outside to check the morning view of Boracay. After 15 minutes of walking, I decided to swim to the beautiful white beach and tried the banana boat ride. The ride costs 250pesos minimum of 5pax. Just got lucky that there was one available slot that time. After that, took some shot and went back to the hotel for breakfast. After breakfast, I went to my room, took a shower, watched cable and slept for 6 hours (just because I was reserving myself for another night life). Around 7pm when I finished my dinner. I went to Station 1, I heard the bars are better there. Among the bars out there, Cocomangas caught my eyes, where inside the bar were all Koreans. After 2 bottles, Finally, someone approached me. She's a Korean, a bit older than me but she's still hot. The rest was history.



                          Last day, woke up at 7 in the morning. Had my breakfast, fixed my things then went to Kalibo Airport. Arrived in Manila at 12noon. Took a cab home. Back to work the next day. T_T
