Beautiful!



The airport!

The travellers!


Shenna loved the flight ride!

We always knew that we will make a trip to palawan before we leave Philippines and we did this trip during 1-3rd Nov, during Shenna Halloween break.

We took cebu pacific flight from manila to Basunga. It took us 45 minutes. Basunga indeed is Island, no throughly commercialised like Boracay. Very green, very undeveloped, still with lot of easy, charming time wrapped languid way of life.
The ride from the airport (more like a patch for landing really) to main coron city took about an hour since its mosting through half done roads. Unlike halfdone cakes, which are completely useless, one can use half done roads in Philippines, thanks to God's small mercies!
We stayed at Village Lodge. We willnt stay there again. Thought dont mind going to their restaurant again which was rather nice with lot of local touches.

After lunch with totato salad and grilled fish, we took a tricycle to the pier where our boat was awaiting for us. Our first stop was to the famous lake where we did some swimming and then we went to the famed hotspring. The sun was on the west side and wether was nice. Thus, the hot water from the spring wasd very pleasurable. The we went to another beach. There are not too many nice beaches (its rather small patches no more than 20ft long and 20 ft depth) in this part of Coron unless one was staying at Club Paradise, our pocket didnt permit that!). We did lot of snokrelling and even with naked eyes, we could seee lot of fish, unafraid of our intrusions!

We came back to the the city when it was dark. Coron city is not much of city and sleeps rather early unless one was looking for Videokee kind of entertainment!
Early next morning, we went trekked to Mount Tapasya for watching the sunrise! It was awesome and even Shenna walked up 753 steps to the top. I repeated it next day as well!
We spent whole of next day in a boat going to have a look at the4 shipwreck, deep see snokrelling, twin lagoon, another lake and lot of sun!
We flew back with Cebu pacific with a promise to ourselves that we will have to make another trip to Palawan and stay with Elnido to have complete Palawan experience.
Will add more pictures, So watch out!
