“I haven’t been everywhere, but it’s on my list.”


Today I woke up hot and annoyed with the rooster, so I went for a dip in the ocean, while the locals were packing up their boats for tours and fishing and the children played on the boats like a jungle gym. It was nice and relaxing being out in the water when the sun was rising and people were getting ready for the work day.





We had our last breakfast on our balcony, and parted ways with one of our favorite stays. We said our goodbyes to the awesome owners at The Alternative, then headed to our shuttle taking us back to Puerto Princesa, to catch a flight to Manila.

We again had a bumpy, uncomfortable 5 hours in the shuttle van, but we also had a local pregnant lady who was about to go into labor and commuting with us, therefore I really didn't have much to complain about. Puerto Princesa is the closest hospital for her, she looked in pain the whole ride, we felt so bad for her.

Once we got to Puerto Princesa, we found out that our flight to Manila was delayed... go figure. Over an hour delay we boarded our flight to Manila and got there in a bit over an hour. We found a place to stay in the popular area of Malate, threw down our stuff and grabbed some dinner at a local spot, where we befriended some local lady boys... surprise.
