Summer '12

I thought my summer would just end up pretty boring and stuff which happens every year.

I have already fixed to that thought especially now that my dad went home and back to Vietnam.

When he was still here, we didn't go to the mall or any beaches. I was really disappointed and saddened about that. 

Well... I didn't dwell much about it since getting and being disappointed is really normal with me when it comes to my father. 

That is why, I don't really hope for anything in connection with him.

I thought... and thank goodness it was just a thought...

My mom brought goodness when my father went back to Vietnam.

 She told us that we would be having an out of town trip in Camotes Island.

 After hearing the news, I stopped myself from being excited and stuff. 

I don't want to be disappointed later on of the "might be" cancellation of plans of the trip.

It would be my family and relatives' trip.

 I was told with general details of the date and where.

 Everyone is pretty excited about it but me.

 My aunt/mommy noticed that I wasn't much of anxious like my other cousins. 

So, she asked me the reason why and I simply told her that I don't want to get disappointed in the end. 

My parents always make plans that never happened. 

But, aunt/mommy assured me that the Camotes getaway was a go!

Thank goodness it was really a GO!.. and now I am back in CEBU...

It was almost a 100% awesome trip... "almost" because... bwisit eh... my period came on the day before our trip so that made swimming impossible for me.

Anyways... except for that... I had loads of fun...

I didn't get the chance to go swimming but our Camotes tour was awesome!

Let me tour you around Camotes Island.. My waaaay....!

Check out my pics!

BEWARE: In those pictures... I AM THERE ! ... I AM VAIN :P

Camotes make way! Shannien is here!

Yes! This first pictures clearly shows my first few steps upon arriving in Camotes port.
I remember having jiggydy feelings inside.. :D
It was my first trip outside of Cebu Island with my family besides Negros Occidental.
We had a rough trip due to high sea waves but that doesn't manner anymore 'cause FUN here we come!

all aboooooaaaard....!

After landing in Camotes we directly went to sea it beaches... "the little Boracay" as what my cousin calls it.

Of course! I have a proof to show to you that the Camotes' sand are white and as fine like Boracay!

Breath taking right?
(No edits here. Just the border)

Awesome beaches and white sand right?!

Now! Let the real tour begin!

My First Stop: "SANTIAGO WHITE BEACH RESORT"

This is where I am staying in my 2 days and 1 nigh trip in Camotes.

Second Stop: "AGORA BAYWALK"

hmm.. nothing much to say really..

This is just a simple baywalk near the market.

(sorry.. I am not really that creative.)

Agora-Baywalk

Third Stop: "BUKILAT CAVE"

Bukilat Cave is one of the thousands caves in the Philippines.

It is pretty small compared to others but still pretty cool.

There is a natural spring inside that you could actually go for a swim.

pretty cool huh?

(sorry bad border. too darn lazy.)

Fourth Stop: "Buho Rock Resort"

This is a simple resort made on the top of a rock formation. 

Kind of awesome man-made plus natural rock formation.

It is found in the edge of a cliff.

cool right?

not only that... in this place I have captured a wonderful "almost" sunset.

awesome right?
a sun-view can be seen anywhere. it is up to you to stop and appreciate it.

Fifth Stop: "Lake Danao"

This lake is pretty cute :D

I asked our tour guide if it is possible to take a swim.

haha take shock him out. swimming in a LAKE

he just said, he's not sure but if i dared why not.

well.. i was about to... since it would be cool to be the first to swim in that lake..

but such shame of my F**king period...!!!

and so.. here is the picture of the lake..

and by the way.,... you could rent a somewhat floating cottage-like there...

Sixth and Last Stop: "MANGODLONG BEACH RESORT"

This is one of the famous beach resort in Camotes.

Its facilities are pretty cool.. but I prefer the simple one on where I am staying..

unlike the Mangodlong beach resort.. mine has a boracay-like sand... and view

the Mangodlong is pretty cool though.. you could rent jet-skis and boats and stuff...

ahhaha and sad to say... I have to pictures there... my battery went dead.

so... that were the stuff I went to when I was there in Camotes Island.

I LIKE CAMOTES

(Just a little something my cousin, Arvel Cui, made)
