Long Weekend

Workday is almost over. No! Workweek is almost over. It will be a long weekend because of the Holy Week. We can enjoy the long weekend and not think about work for now because it's the end of the fiscal month and we were able to meet a 100% completion. Kudos to my team mates. Great team effort, guys!

My hubby and I originally planned to spend the Holy Week by the beach. Looks like we need a change of plan. I can't go to the beach with my new swimwears because I have my regular visitor. Shucks! Of all the days for it to arrive!

I promised myself I won't be touching the computer for the next 4 days. So that means, no blogging for me. No internet. This is the time to relax and recharge. To spend more time with thekids, to observe them more closely, and to cuddle all the time. That's my favorite part, the cuddling.

Bantayan Weekend Get-Away!


Finally, I now have the time to update you guys about my Bantayan trip!

We started off early, left the city at 6am, and we arrived at Hagnaya at 9am. The ferry schedule says it's supposed to leave at 9:30, however, there were some delays and we were able to leave the port at 10am. We arrived at Bantayan port, and boy! it was the cleanest port I've ever seen. The water is still deep blue and the sandy beach is so clean. I was really impressed.

We went resort hopping as most of the resorts were full. We finally settled in Tickety Boo, as were seduced by the promise of a night life because the bar has a live band.

We got in our rooms, went to the restaurant and ate lunch, and then we headed for the beach. We didn't do much swimming as our tummies we're full, but we had a great time having a pictorial.

We rested for the rest of the afternoon. We took a nap and we were hoping we could go to the market to buy some stuff by mid afternoon, but apparently, we were too tired to wake up. We woke up at around 5pm, and we were hurrying hoping to catch the sunset. Either the sun didn't set on that day (which is impossible) or it was too cloudy to notice. We just at by the beach line and headed for the market to buy some stuff and get dinner as well.

We head back to the resort after dinner and drank beer by the shoreline. Then we went inside our room to change and get ready for the live band. The band was good, and we were surprised to find out later that one of the vocalists was actually the owner of the resort.





We took a moonlit stroll (how romantic!) and then cuddled on the hammock watching the moon (sigh!).


It was past midnight when we decided to call it a night. We wake up late the following day. We were actually planning to wake up early for the sunrise, but it was raining, so we decided to turn off the alarm and dozed off.

We woke up to have breakfast by the beach line (again) and of course, head for a swim took a lot of photos in our swim wear. After which, we decided to leave early hoping we could catch an early schedule for the ferry so we could get home earlier than planned as we are badly missing the kids.

Most of our friends teased us that it was like a honeymoon. It sort of looked that way. We had so much fun we already began making plans of going back we haven’t even left yet. I’m sure a lot of people are anticipating the details of the “honeymoon” part…well, I’m not gonna go further into that (*wink) but we sure had a blast this weekend!
