Boracay

Boracay Island

Boracay is internationally known as the ultimate getaway – just like Hawaii, Bora Bora, Bahamas, etc. There are mixed reviews about Boracay, and after our trip, I can see why which I’ll get into later. But I think the main thing is that we enjoyed ourselves the entire time.

Boracay is located in the Western Visayas, low and behold, that's where Ondoy is. To get to Boracay, we drove from Ondoy to Caticlan, which is about 45 minutes or so. From Caticlan, we had to take a boat to the island. We tried to bargain our way and my dad tried to get the local discount, which he thought he could do. But since we all looked like tourist and the fair skin of Michelle, the kids, and Trey, resulted in us paying full price. We had a quick laugh and boarded the boat.
