What have you learned this month?
- When you get sick for more than two months, you get to appreciate good health. Health indeed is WEALTH.
So, note to self: take good care of our bodies. Eat healthy. Sleep right and well. Drink lots of water. Drink supplements. Enjoy life by living a healthy lifestyle.
Our last day in El Nido was quite special simply because it was our island hopping. You see in EL Nido, you have to go off the island to see more of the beauty.
We got the Tour A and everyone was so excited for it!
The view was definitely spectacular! Will post more on that later!

It was a beautiful day to go to the beach so off we went to Nacpan Beach. This time the weather was beautiful!
Here's my outfit for the day, a floral coverup, bathing suit, white top and white shorts.
It was indeed a beautiful day! ♥
Apart from Nacpan Beach, another place that I highly recommend you check out when you are in El Nido is Corong-Corong Beach.
That place was indeed a BEAUTY. Just a couple of minutes away from the town.
...and you will see this beautiful view.
I'm so glad we discovered this beautiful place. I highly recommend that you check it out!
We decided to have our outfits matched for this day and look, we were all wearing orange...
White and orange were the perfect colors to wear that goes so well with the crytal clear beach and white sands.
Do you think so too?

Another highlight of our trip in El Nido was our day trip to Nacpan Beach.
Inspite of a cloudy weather, we still found the beach very beautiful.
It was a long drive from the city, but we can truly say that it was worth it!
Let's dance the day away, today with this beautiful song by Rihanna.
Have a fun day, peeps!
On our first day in El Nido, it was quite drizzling so I just wore my usual top and shorts for the day.
And to make it a little bit special, I brought a statement necklace which was a gift from an Aunt.
It was a rainy day but still a beautiful day. There is no day wasted when you are in the island of El Nido. ♥
Finally after 6 hours on the road, we finally arrived El Nido town. And these beautiful view awaits us....
More stories and photos soon! (*wink*)

Our last night in Puerto Princesa was spent in a nice restaurant with good food and open air ambiance.
We had so much fun and definitely a perfect place to bond as a family.
Now, we needed a complete rest for an adventure that awaits us in El Nido.
Somebody's birthday is coming very, very soon. In fact it's 3 days away from now and I'm thinking of getting him the best gift. Yes, it has to be the BEST. After all, the best guy deserves the best gift, right?
So I'm getting this super xxx that the Husband would definitely love. A new amp for him! It features a 40W of all-tube power through a 12" Triple XXX 30 speaker delivers stellar tone with high gain and ample volume for most gigs. This is a fantastic amp for the studio, it features an Accutronics spring reverb and footswitchable effects loop. What he will love about it is that it is also clean, crunch, and ultra channels with independent EQ and tight, medium, and loose resonance control.
I think I found the super perfect gift for him. Now off to ordering the item! ♥♥♥
Our second day in PP we decided to explore the city. So I wore a comfortable pair of shorts and top, with my favorite statement necklace for this trip...
Very comfortable, indeed!
I'm sure that you've heard about Kalui when a friend or a relative came from PP, why is that? Because it's one of the popular restaurants in the city!
You can not miss this one when you are in the area.
The food is good, fresh seafoods, the restaurant is unique with the open air feel plus requiring you to go barefoot. It is definitely a must to eat here when you are in town.
The entire family loved every bit of what we ordered (and yes that includes my kids)!
I highly recommend that you try it too! Kalui is located at 369, Rizal Avenue, Puerto Princesa, Palawan, Philippines.
A nice song to listen and enjoy this beautiful day.
Eet by Regina Spektor. Good day, peeps!
This is where we had our first dinner in Puerto Princesa.
Good food and the service was good too. We didn't have to wait long for our food. I highly recommend it!
KINABUCHS Grill and Bar is located at Rizal Ave. Brgy Bancao Bancao Puerto Princesa, Palawan.
Weekend is just a few hours away and I'm thinking of decluttering a couple of stuff in my closet. Here's a nice video that I'm sure going to follow.
I really hope I would reach my goal of being able to clean up our home this year! We'll see!
Here's another highlight of Microtel Hotel in Puerto Princesa.
The swimming pool! And oh, everybody had a blast!
Definitely our favorite spot in the hotel. ♥♥♥
