We set off back to Puerto Princesa bright and early. I don't mind long journeys as long as I have enough entertainment which we had obviously ensured before we left. Unfortunately for us, we were asked to go right to the back of the minivan with all the luggage. There were two seats (technically) but because the luggage was leaning on to them, matt and I had to basically share a seat for the 6 hour journey! We tried our best to just get on with it but after 4 ho...

After a much better nights sleep with a lovely fan pointing directing onto us, we had a spot of breakfast along the beach front and contemplated about how we were going to see the Big Lagoon! I loved the breakfast here and one of the main things I had been drinking is calamansi lemon ice tea, it's just incredible! Probably my favourite drink ever, closely followed by a mango lassi! We asked around about hiring a private boat just to take us only to the Big Lagoon...

Feeling much better after a half decent nights sleep, we headed to the French cafe with great wifi. As the weather was pretty awful, and matt wasn't feeling 100%, I decided to do my first fun dive! I had a look around a couple of places and was recommended one along the beach front. I was only keen on doing two dives as apposed to the normal 3 as I wasn't sure how I would be. It was approximately £50 to do the two so I booked on. Our first dive was at South En...

As the sun was still shining, we hired a moped for the day at 500 pesos, that was the cheapest we could find! We packed up a dry bag (that I purchased the day before), grabbed a mango lassi (I'm obsessed with Filipino mangos) and headed off! Matt is a great driver, but as we had previously had a little tumble off the moped in Bohol, I was a little nervous on the back. Although we were only going about 5 miles an hour at the time, and we were both absolutely fine,...

The majority of the day was spent travelling in the minivan on the 6 hour drive to El Nido. In fairness, it had only cost us 450 pesos each after a bit of bartering, which we thought was pretty good! The van was spacious with great air con so I sat and watched nearly 5 episodes of the Kardashians for the duration of the drive. I did stop to gaze out of the window from time to time, but staring at the gorgeous sunshine and not being out in it when we had just spen...
