Palawan Trip -- No more

My flight was booked as early as June last year and I've been on the look out on where to stay and what to do ever since.  So to say that I am excited to go to Puerto Princesa, Palawan is an understatement.  I've been to El Nido (also in Palawan) back in 2008 and I was stunned by the beauty of the place.

El Nido, Palawan

Miniloc Resort

Scuba diving

Kayaking in Small Lagoon

My first catch

Rock climbing in Entalula Island

Lagen Resort

After that trip, I knew I had to come back and explore other places in Palawan.  Come 2011, after taking a week-long vacation trip to Canada, I knew it would be impossible to seek approval for another leave from work, and I was right *sigh*  Sayang ang bikini na binili ko!  Good thing we were able to get a promo ticket or else, I would feel bad big time.

Marry Me

There's something about this song that made me cry.



Must be the date today.

Things that made me smile

Valentines is just around the corner and I thought I'd share these photos with you to make you smile.
















Because I know I did.

Home bound

After brisk walking for 30 minutes to get from Terminal 1 to Terminal 3 of the Toronto International Airport, which is a HUGE airport by the way, I was relieved to arrive at the boarding gate right on time.  My flight had only an hour and 40 minutes transit time and there is no way I am missing my Incheon flight (I don't want to sleep in the airport thank you very much).  Since I was in a hurry with a heavy luggage in one hand and travel documents on the other,  there's no time to take photos anymore. So unlikely of me, I know!

My flight going to Vancouver was a nightmare sitting in the middle row, so I made sure to politely ask the lady at the check in counter for a window seat, since Toronto to Seoul is a 14-hour flight and I want to have a goodnight sleep this time.  I know I asked for a window seat but she gave me a bed! I can now sleep comfortably. Yay!

The flight was half empty and thank goodness I have no seatmates.

I must say that Korean Air is by far the best airline I have ever flown with.  From the ground staff who will offer free check-in for your hand carry to the very helpful and attentive flight attendants.  They even have red and white wine even if you're flying coach! How cool is that right?

Fourteen hours later, I'm in the Land of K-Pop.

All stores are closed :(

Boarding Gate 12 = My Gateway to Manila

I wish I had time to spend even just a day in Korea.  Oh well, there's always a next time.  But for now, I can't wait to be back because I don't want you to wait for me too long. *wink*
