| On our way back to Puerto Princesa, kids hitchhiked on our bus and were dropped off to this little school a few meters from the highway. It rained the night before and was still drizzling at that time. It saved them from getting all muddy and walking at least 3 kilometers to school . Kudos to the RORO Bus drivers! :)) |

| I remember my mom narrating how she had to walk 5 kilometers a day, across rice fields and rivers, just to go to school.
We really enjoyed the barbecue sold on the side streets of El Nido.Haha :)) And we spent more moolah on souvenirs, pasalubong and chaolong of course :))

@Manong Unyol Thank you :)) Yung airfare lang talaga ung expensive pero carry na yung other expenses. Wala nang arte sa food and accommodation kaya yan :))
ReplyDeletehehe ayos sa pag-bbudget! na-excite tuloy ako sa trip namin this March. Standard ba ang P20 isang tao sa tricycle from terminal papunta sa mga guest houses sa El Nido o isang buong tricycle na yun? naniniguro lang para di kami mukhang ewan pag nataga kami sa presyo pagdating don hehehe. TIA!
