After our wonderful night of sleep on the airport floor we boarded a second - much smaller plane to Caticlan. The plane was tiny!! When we arrived at Caticlan we waited for our luggage as it came off the plane!! It was a very interesting journey!
Next it was time to meet our guide to catch a private speedboat to our hotel (I felt like some kind of celebrity going to our private boat!) It was a hair raising experience as he zipped through the ocean at full blast!
Heading to our boat!
Us and the driver - Alvin
Our hotel from the water
When we arrived at the hotek it was only 8am but they allowed us to check in early, presented us with our welcome drinks, shell necklace and the most beautiful room with a view....
We decided we were going to have a lazy day...so...we headed down to the heaven which was the balcony below us where (for non sun lovers like ourselves) we could lay out on the chairs, under the shade with the magnificent view of the boats and ocean as we sipped on a cocktail! Heaven!
We then chose to have our romantic meal for 2 on the balcony as we watched the sunset.....it was gorgeous
with our nicely chilled wine (which actually lasted us 5 days!)
The alien lighting was actually pretty in person!!
Hyunwoo's first try of French Onion soup went down well!
The perfect end to the first day....here's to another 5!
To be continued......

Awe! Looks like such a beautiful resort! But Ceri, really, 5 days to drink 1 bottle of wine? I can't believe you're English!!
The cocktails were more tempting than the wine to us!! haha!!
And I am (and always will be) a disappointment to my family on the drinking front!!
