Chingky Quijano ♥: Puerto Galera! (2009)

Same year as our Batangas Trip in 2009, my swimming friends wanted a vacation because ever since summer started we all became busy for the swimming lessons. We invited almost everyone in the team, for a Batangas Trip only. And yes, we ended up 4 in the group. Pero, syempre go pa din!

Take a bus to Batangas port, then we decided to go Puerto Galera na lang kasi 1 ride na lang andun na kami. Hahaha!!

Nasa bus na. Off to Batangas! :)

Nasa boat na! Di uso maglife vest. I remember, pinaguusapan namin dito na kapag lumubog yung bangka, magogoggles and fins na lang kami at yung life vest, para sa mga gamit namin! Hahaha!

Finally, after ng maalon at nakakahilong biyahe sa boat. We’re in Puerto Galera na! Hahaha! Ace has a contact person there. Kaya no more problem sa room and super thankful kami kasi the room only costs 1500 per night, with discount na yata yung rate. Nakamura sa room! Tamang-tama, short kami sa budget kasi we only brought enough for a Batangas Trip!

Had bonggang lunch (bongga na yan para sa mga walang budget!) Hahaha!

Look how big that porkchop was! Tapos unlimited rice pa yan. It's only a hundred pesos! Solve na solve na! :)

Wala nang araw paglabas namin sa room dahil trip naming magpahinga hanggang sa nagkatamaran na! :))

Elka’s hair was braided! It was cute! :D

After swimming we had our dinner. Then time for picture taking! Hahaha. All smiles kami kasi naka smile detector mode yata! Hahaha.

It’s DAY 2. Si Ace ay known bilang maaga magising! Para magkaroon ng karamay at magising na din kami ang sabi samin, 10am na daw. And we’re late for our island hopping/snorkling for that day! Panic mode! Bangon agad, pero nung binuksan ang TV. Ang palabas ay isang early morning TV show! Hahaha! Buking!

Cup noodles, coffee and pandesal for breakfast. Fix ourselves. Bringing some snacks and drinking water is a MUST when you go island hopping, especially if the group really wanted snorkling because it’s really dehydrating!

Breakfast. Haggard naman ng itsura ko! Nakajacket pa kami ni Elka! Hahaha!

Off to our first stop for snorkling! :)

Because we love having our fins! ♥

Let's go to the next stop! :D

Pandesal and Vienna Sausage, our baon.

Picture taking sa boat! We had like 3-4 stops for snorkling! Thanks sa fins, malayo ang nararating namin. At sa current na napakalakas! Nakakapagod bumalik sa boat!

Here are some of our underwater pictures! Ang hirap magpose underwater! Haha!

After snorkeling pictures! Since we’re tired because of the non-stop swimming we decided to have a bongga lunch! We again ate where we had our first lunch at Puerto. Yun ulit, in short! (yun lang keri ng budget e. Hahaha. But, super busog!)

We rest/sleep at the room for a while then went pasalubong hunting! Mura ng mga goods. Marami-marami pa din ang nabili namin kahit short kami sa budget! Lakas loob lang! Haha!

Our bongga lunch! We loved the table! Jetski. :)

Looking for pasalubong.

We bought same shirts! Here's our pictorial! I'll just post only few because we really had a lot! Hahaha!

Very maiitim na ang legs! Hahaha!

Of course, we had solo pictures!

Formal!

Wacky! Borrowed Ace's things!

Hahahahaha! This is Ace! Nice idea e? :)))

Baliw na! :))

Pagandahan ng ayos ng kama! Ace and mine is the one in the left and Ivan and Elka's is the one in the right. Yung towel sa lapag, punasan daw ng paa! Hahaha!
