Tarzan swing the shiz! You have no idea how ecstatic I was to finally check this off my bucket list. While I was at it, I made the ululating Tarzan yell. LOL

Thai fried rice -- so flavourful!

Leaf propeller ;) Wheeeee

Organic as can be. I don’t drink coffee so Sheth concocted this “jungle tea” and it was really good. But then, I just couldn’t resist to try a cup of hot, fresh, Hill tribe coffee!

The raised coral is great fun to walk around on and explore. You can spend hours looking into the nooks and crannies and watching the waves crash onto the rock.

A variety of fishes dwell in the tide pools.

This is the place and the weather for peace, for the cultivation of a friendly mind.

The past few days had been sunny, so we didn't bring winter clothes. Presumably, March here brings mild to warm, comfortable spring weather (I mean, what are the chances of the weather forecast being wrong?!) but Mother Nature had other plans.

Still ventured out into the mountains (coming from tropical Pinas, of course we had to check it out.) However, the trails were all closed. Settled for a drizzly and icy short walk towards the pavilion.

The freezing temperature was tolerable as long as we kept moving, except when there were sudden gusts of wind. We didn't have gloves, so it got quite uncomfortably cold whenever our hands were exposed while taking photos/videos.

Cars were only allowed to pass the road if they had snow chains. The police were strictly monitoring the area.
