I thankfully ended up having an amazing time. We took a tour of the island and I managed to convince my mom to Zipline, and she loved it! Our tour guide somehow turned into our personal photographer and the 4 of us ran around like little girls and took way too many pictures. It was pretty reminiscent of my high school memory catching days.
I laughed way too much on this trip, which to me is the best sign of a good time. I had so much fun watching my mom zipline, taking her out to bar hop at night, watching my great aunt refuse to come out of the water for half an hour because no one would bring her her shorts to cover up her bathing suit and she was too embarrassed (mind you, she was laughing the entire time while she was yelling for us to bring her shorts). She also insisted on changing her outfit at every photo stop (she had a purse with at least 4 hats and 3 shirts in it), and we would laugh everytime I asked to use her senior citizen discount. She was the cutest little lady and one of the main reasons I can't wait to make it back to the Philippines.
Even though the island is littered with tourists, its still not too commercialized. Proof of that is the fact that everything is still so cheap! The beach doesn't get too crowded and since all the hotels, restaurants, and bars are just steps from the shore, you can literally be barefoot the entire time you're there.
Every day at sunset, countless sailboats would come up on the shore and offer to take people out for a sunset sail.
What better entertainment than a couple of fire dancing gay filipino men
Tricycles for days
I was addicted to the mango juice
