Boracay Beckons...

Thursday 29th March started with a morning of fun playing with the girls at the 'Let's Care' home: volleyball, badminton and skipping was top of the agenda! After saying our goodbyes, we then had a lovely scenic trip with glorious ocean and mountain views all the way to the port to catch the boat over to Boracay... our island paradise for the next three days; being our rest & recreation stop. During our time on the island we took several walks along the beautiful beaches (they've been voted in the top ten beaches in the world!)

We also took the opportunity to visit some of the shops that the island had to offer. The nightlife on the island was pretty hectic, although we were too tired to stay out too late!

Mango smoothies... Yum!

We stayed on the island until lunch time on Sunday 1st April, when we caught the boat back to the island of Panay. We were met by President Bing Santamaria and her family, and were kindly taken on a 1.5 hour journey to the town of Kalibo. We received yet another great welcome in the form of a dinner, before spending the night with our new host families.
