THE SIMPLE BEAUTY OF CAGBALETE



May 29-30, 2010

Our long travel going to this island was replaced by a relaxing moment as we approached to dock in the island. We were welcomed with clear green water and white sand.

It was around 3:00PM already and we are super hungry, we waited for a couple of minutes and our lunch (Spicy Pusit, Lumpia, Afritadang Manok and Leche Plan) was served. After, we pitched the tents, some went to swimming, some stuck themselves in the hammock and some walk around. Our merienda (Pansit Bihon and Bico) was served after an hour.

We had sharing session while waiting for our dinner. Our first observation with the crew of Pansacola, they are very attentive to their guests. Though they are also catering a much larger group in the resort, we were not left out with our needs. The dinner was superb composed of Crispy Pata, Sweet & Sour Fish, Chopsuey and Mango).



After dinner, some went fishing and the rest continued the session. They came back with the biggest catch of the year, one fish. This is a sign not for them to be sad but a sure bet that are fish in the area. The story of the night was about the two prisoners and the jail warden lookout. (Hehehe).

Our morning started with our breakfast (Daing, Giniling, Egg and Bananas). The whole morning was used for swimming, jumpshots, fight scenes acting and sand dunes walking. It was like walking in a desert that resulted from a timely low tide.


We ate our merienda (Pancit Lucban and Bread) while getting ready to break camp. At exactly 12:00NN, we headed to our banca to go back to Mauban port. Along the way we experienced rain and strong gust of winds, though we arrive safely at the port, it was a one bumpy ride. We also witness a school of fish giving us a show with their flying tricks.



Overall, the experience in Cagbalete is worth the bucks including the service we got in Pansacola beach. This is also the first time I enjoyed the water because of its clear and pristine state and not too mention that it is knee-deep a few meters away.


I will surely come back to this simple and beautiful place.....



Last to say, this is the birthplace of Grupo-Grupohan... ;-)
