We attended a friend's wedding @ Club Balai Isabel at Talisay, Batanga last January 28. Since we attended another wedding in the morning we figured that we will be too tired to go home at night. So we decided to check in at the resort.
The room is quite small and expensive for a 5k+ room for 2 and additional 1500 each per person. Maximum capacity is just 4pax.
Comfort room is spacious, towels are not so white. In the morning, there's a lot of ants in the corner ceiling and in one of the pillows. Good thing, we slept on the other bed.
At least the breakfast is a buffet, and it's quite good and appetizing.
It's nice to have a devotion in the morning overlooking Taal. But it looks like no one is taking a swim in the lake. The pool is big but it's very deep so a huge part of the pool is not occupied. Well, I can't go there either.
We weren't able to explore it because it's quite big and we have limited time in the morning.
Still I have fun with the company of the person that matters.
Happy 10th year anniversary to us!

Singapore Day 2
We left the hotel around 8:30 for our Universal Studios Tour. We walked again at the board walk and we are already tired from walking the other day. Arrived around 10 at the USS and began our tour.
We tried their Battlestar Galactica both the Human and Cyclon. We saw how Steven Spielberg do their films. Went to the Mummy, Shrek 4D, WaterWorld. I enjoyed it even though the rides are not that thrilling as they say. Maybe because I've been to 6Flags already.
After Universal Studios we went to Sentosa for the Luge ride and then watch the Songs of the Sea.
After that went to our friend's house to rest and then went to Clark Quay to check out the Halloween costume event.
We went back to the hotel around 3+

Singapore Day 1
It's been almost 3 weeks and I totally have no time to blog about this. Anyway, I will just edit my post when I have time.
Our flight is at 6:40AM so we need to be at the airport around 3+. I left the office at around 10 so I was not able to sleep a wink. I was not able to wait for the airplane take off and I already fell asleep. This would be the start of a long day.
We arrived at SG around 10AM and our friend Glen fetch us. We had lunch c/o by him then off we went to our hotel.The Fragrance Hotel. It's clean even though it's quite small. After resting for an hour or two. We started our way to tour the city.
Went to Sim Lim square to look for electronics stuff, it looks like Greenhills shopping center. Then we started our walk. I'm not really sure where we went I just follow the leader. But I remember we went to Singapore Art Museum, Ruffles, and saw the Esplanade.
We meet some of our college friends for dinner and then went to Makansutra. We really had a feast. I remember we had cereal shrimp.
After that we walk again and went to see the Merlion. Then rode a cab to try our luck at the casino.
Well that concludes our day. We went back to the hotel around 2AM. We need to get up early the next day for USS and Sentosa.

Next time at Boracay
We missed a lot of activities in Boracay, which I planned to do next time.
1) ATV ride - it would be nice to see the whole island from the top. It costs P500 each. I was able to refund only P300/pax.
2) Paraw sailing - or sunset sailing / sunrise sailing, just an hour sailing on the boat watching the sunrise or sunset. It also costs P500 each.
3) Para sailing - since it's too expensive we didn't try it. But next time, we will. It's around P1500 for 15 minutes.
4) Bar hopping - party! party!
5) Food trip - seafood galore, isaw, barbeques, milkshake ... yum yum!

Island hopping at Boracay
We went island hopping for (P750ea). As usual, we went snorkeling, then Island hopping at Crystal Cove (P200ea entrance) and then another island for lunch.
We enjoyed the Crystal Cove at least there's a lot of scenic views here.
For the first cove
Then the second cove, where we need to pass thru a small tunnel-like cave.
Then off we went to another island for lunch. (I forgot the name -- I'm really not good at names)
After this, we had reef walking / helmet diving. It's like having a prenup shot underwater. But the pictures are not so good. Will upload it next time ;)
