My Bohol Trip In Pictures [Part 1]

My family and I had a swell trip to Panglao, Bohol last weekend. I wanted to go to Boracay, but due to flooding, we had to choose between Palawan and Bohol. But Palawan was really expensive!!!

Initially, I had mixed feelings about Bohol... But a little research did wonders on my hesitations. For the longest time, I really wanted to see the Chocolate Hills. And knowing that our beach destination had white sand was enough for me.

Here are some pictures from our vacation.

Beach
I really like the white sands of Alona Beach in Panglao Island. This is a small island on the southwestern side of Bohol and east of Cebu. It is one of the best Dive Centers in the Philippines, frequented by many Westerners. In fact, most of our neighbors in Alonaland (our inn) were foreigners!

You can see from the pics that the sand is really distinctly fair. It was quite a sight to behold once we got out of the coconut groves leading to the beach. We went straight to the water!




Check out this glorious sunrise.



















Watch out tomorrow: Chocolate Hills and Tarsiers

Blogging Again

Hello everyone!

I haven't blogged for like 4 months! Happy 2008 to all!

For 2008, I'll try to document my everyday life as often as possible and not just limit my entries to anything G&W basketball-related.

Before I go back to Japan, I'd really like to go to the beach and snorkel. Me and the family just got back from Bohol yesterday, but more on that later.

So happy new year to everyone!
