I arrived in Iloilo City at about 2:30 this afternoon. The boat that I rode was supposed to leave our place last Monday at 4:30 in the afternoon but because of the typhoon, the boat arrived last night at around 7pm and we boarded at 10pm already and left for its first stop at Dipolog City at 11:30 in the evening. I woke up when I heard the announcement that we already arrived at Dipolog City at around 5am more or less... Then we left Dipolog at around 6am, hence, the arrival this afternoon. It was a great experience riding with 200 students from the maritime schools in Iloilo City and Bacolod City. They were all boys and they were so noisy. In spite of the noise I still slept soundly. I just enjoyed watching the students talking and merrying when we were about to leave the boat. Now, we are getting ready for our trip to Boracay early morning tomorrow.... I'm so excited.

I am really pleased to hear that your trip is going well so far. It was that there had been a typhoon. You did well to sleep soundly even though the maritime students were making such a din. The boys seemed to be having a wonderful time so it is great you enjoyed watching them. I hope that you have a fantastic time at Boracay Island. You are right to be excited. One day I hope I will visit Boracay Island.

That's just so exciting. Glad that you enjoyed your trip. Me? I think it'll be hard for me to sleep when I know that I'm travelling on the ocean. I haven't rode on a boat yet though but I'm pretty sure that I'll be paranoid. Lol.

You surely had a great time there. Maritime schools? You mean the seamen?
Good luck on your trip to Boracay. I haven't been there but the place looks exciting..the white sands, the girls wearing bikini and the all night party at the bars.
