I have just arrived from a long trip. I spent almost a week in a place which I consider my favorite. Known as the Last Frontier, Palawan is a paradise, sanctuary to an amazing variety of fauna and flora foun. It is blessed with incredibly awesome landscapes. I have been in Palawan for many times but the place never fails to amaze me. This time we visited the longest zip line in Asia located at Irawan in Puerto Princesa City.

Oh! I would like to visit Palawan as well, I just don't when though. My friend is telling me to go visit the place this February but due to short of budget I don't know if my family would be able to go. Anyways, Palawan is just there, and anytime if we have the money we could always go. I hope and pray God will grant the desire of my heart to see this amazing place.

I hope too... very hard. lol! Actually I have a lot of other places in mind to visit, and one of that it Cam Sur, Boracaya (again), Baguio(again), Sagada (again), Vigan (again) and a lot more. Money and time hinders me to do what I want. I wish I able to do these next year and the other year. :))

I am glad that you had a fantastic trip to Palawan. I have seen amazingly beautiful photos of Palawan and Coron too. I love to see wildlife and beautiful plants. I hope to visit the Philippines before my disabled son gets too heavy to carry. I hope that the zip line was very exciting and enjoyable.

I spent the past few days exploring Coron, which is also in Palawan. It was breath taking! My travel buddy and I were so amazed with all the sights, plus the lush corals that one can see even from standing in the boat. We were able to climb Mt. Tapyas to take a dip in the lake within which is also a marvel, because imagine a lake a few steps up in the mountain.
The only disappointment that I had with my trip is that the food was very expensive. I was expecting food, especially fish, to be cheaper than here in Manila. When I got there and my mouth was watering over the thought of grilled tanigue, I was in for a shock. The slice of tanigue costs P180 ($4.50), and that is just for the fish. You have to pay separate for the rice and your drink. I can get a slice of grilled tuna with a drink here in Manila for less than that.
So aside from not being able to eat grilled tanigue, I enjoyed my stay in Coron. It's one of those travel destinations here in the Philippines that really needs a lot of improvement.
