Puerto Princesa - City In A Forest

I feel very much at home in Puerto Princesa.  It was like I'm in my island home.  Peaceful, clean, green sorroundings and friendly people.

No cabs but lotsa tricycles.  Big tricycle way different from the tricycles here in Manila.
naki-upo lang ako para magpa-picture haha

Plaza Cuartel
                                       

Sorry as much as I wanted to took a lot of pix of the church which is a sort of San Sebastian's replica, there was an ongoing funeral mass

Their crocodile farm.  Im not comfortable to post crocodile's pix. So yan lang mapo-post ko haha.

Mitra's Ranch.  According to my cousin two years ago tourists were allowed to enter atleast at the balcony of the mansion.  But now tourists were no longer allowed.  Outside, the roof of the mansion looks like "sabungan"
 You can enjoy some activities there, zip line, horse back riding or simply enjoy the view and have some Me time or emo-emohan portion...nah Im not emo there .. was just for the sake of picture taking haha.  Oh there's no entrance fee.


Baker's Hill, I so love the place even my mom love's it too eh kasi sya mahilig sa plants and there's lot of flowers/plants plus a very beutiful landscape inside.  See the one below.  Isn't it lovely and very creative?
 It was 'ber" month so there you go  santa was in town haha. The sorroundings was clean nad so green.
 A garden and a play ground in one. Oh the child in me. Ok please allow me to strike a silly pose.
 I can stay the whole day sitting, reading or sleeping there.. what?? oh ok playing there run around dancelike no one is watching :)

On the way to Under ground river. Sunlight plus mountain oh countless beauty of our mother nature.                          
It took more than one hour of waiting for our boat.  It was hot at the port area. There's a tent at the other side but I think it's even hot there.  So there I was on my sunnies and talukbong.  Haha i love stolen shot.
And so they decided to buy some beach caps :) They dont have the color that I want so I didnt buy.
A view of the ocean.
That rock formation.. on our way to Under Ground river.  Breathtaking.
 And yes we're there.  But I'll have a separate post for the Underground River. So for this post all I have was this one.

This Magrove Paddle Boat tour took away a lot of my energy haha but it was worth it.  Will have a separate post also.
 On our Honday Bay tour/Island hopping.  I will have a separate post also. Whole day there was not enough.  There's a "bitin" factor coz I love the sea so much.  Any body of water makes me feel coo haha.

Palawan Getaway

Needless to say this is one of my long over due posts.
Most of us look forward to this getaway. I, my mom, aunts and cousins.  Time to bond out of town and enjoy the gift of mother nature.

So Palawan here we go.  Why Palawan?  My mom's choice.  This year daw.. Davao...?? well before I became a fangirl I really wanted to go there but now, the place is not a priority haha "may kirot sa fangirl heart ko" haha .. soon I might share my reel world here.
And we touched down Puerto Princesa
                                               

I did a lot of question and answer portions to my friends, where to eat, what food to eat in a certain resto, where to go and where to stay. We did not include lunch and dinner in our accommodation package, so we can eat anything and wherever we want.

First stop.. haim Chicken Inato
You gotta love their chicken
                                               
This deserves an extra rice haha thumbs up
                                               
                                     
You love sea breeze while enjoying your food?  Badjao Seafront is a place to be in Palawan. Worth dining here for picture taking ;)                    
romantic ambiance with lovely interior design
This long isle wooden bridge drama with mangroves on both sides is love
                     
  Baker's Hill - I love their Hopia and chocolate crinkles(must try) and I love the place.  

I cant help it but strike a pose like hers
It's already 6:00 PM our Ka Lui's reservation was at 6:30 PM but I can not afford to missed Noki nocs halo halo. I heard a lot of this from my cousins this is the best halo halo in town.  And they were right.
Add caption
We made it on our Ka Lui's 6:30PM reservation.  Yes make sure to have a reservation to be able to experience Ka Lui's.  Great food and food presentation and great place
very homely
Oh it's a bare foot restaurent.  Yes shoes or slippers were required to be taken off.
Don't worry the floor is very clean.
Kinabuch Bar & Grill.   I'm sorry I wasnt able to took a pix of their large screen :).  Their wide open-space is a plus.  Their crispy pata was so good and their version of pinakbet best pinakbet I ever tasted.
