Landing at Abra de Ilog was a big mess. We were forced to ride on a non-aircon minibus. Puro alikabok mukha namin at di pa kami hinatid sa Sablayan. Hanggang Mamburao lang. Tragic!
Upon reaching Mamburao, Mindoro Occidental, nana puy lain problem which is ang bus schedule. We reached this town at 10am and the bus driver that the next trip is scheduled at 12 pa.The 10am bus was really full, with no choice left, we were forced to squeeze in sa bus. Shet! Init, abog! baho! lahat ng panget andun.Birthday pa naman ni Mark at Im sure galit na si Josh.
Reaching Sablayan was a breathe of fresh air for us. Finally we are 15 minutes away from our destination.
Wow! super nice ang Pandan Island. White sand beach, super tropical with its guests 90% foreigners. On the tragic side again, walang kuryente, walang fresh water.
Pero ok na rin. The trip to this island was so exhausting kaya pagod lahat ng mga tao. Pag gabi nlgn kami bumawi. Kami lang ang nasa bar at naglasing kami at nag night swimming!
The follwing day we met our Apo Reef tripmates. Mabait naman sila at madali namin sila nakasundo. Sabay na kami bumalik sa Sablayan. Upon reaching Sablayan, We made sure na aircon room namin kahit 5 hours lang kami hehehe.Super bait ng homestay namin, libre na kami sa rice libre pa kami sa coke! hehehe
5Am ng Saturday was our schedule for Apo Reef. Two hours biyahe namin. Again walang kuryente sa Apo Reef at nagtent lng kami.Sarap mag swimming. Immediately snorkling na kami agad. Naglagoon kami na may stingray. Naglighthouse kami.Paggabi naman inuman, kwnetuhan, open forum lahat ang saya!
Highlight naman dito, nung tulog na silang lahat, lumabas kami ni Josh sa tent at nag usap, kantahan. Tapos sinayaw niya ako under the moonlight with Christian Bautista on the background. It was a very romantic night. It made my vacation complete.
On our way back to Sablayan, nagsnorkling ulit kami. This time shipwreck naman tirada namin. First time ko makakita ng shipwreck. It was a japanese war time ship. The almost a dozen dolphins nagpakita samin. Diba ang saya!
Sa kasawiang palad, tragic ulit biyahe namin pauwi. Sa sobrang init ng van, nag hubad nlng si Josh at ako naman, paypay nang paypay. Gerl grabe trajic talaga to! Nastranded kami sa Abra de Ilog. 8 hours kaming naghintay shet! Kaya karaoke nalang kami. At di kami nagpatalo nila Josh at KEng sa mga tao dun. Siyempre kami pa. Dapat maasin ka. Dapat kami ang star!
Despite all the tragic events, masaya siya na bakasyon. Di lahat nakakapunta dito. Ang layo kasi. Siyempre proud ako kasi nakapunta na ako sa world's second biggest reef!
