I went to Batayan Island with the Committee of 1&1 Cebu. We had a really great time together. It was my first time go travel with people who I don’t know much.
A credit to Elmo who got a place for us that was really great. To Lunica who was like our mother that time. To Marian, Marz, Bert and Flip for the pictures. We enjoyed every minute there and the company was really great. You can expect that 18 people could get together even if we really don’t know each other.
Here are some pictures from our trip. I’ll also add some captions for you guys to know what we did that time.
In the Office…
This is really funny because Lunica told us that we will all meet in the office. She said that we would meet with in 7:30am to 8:00am. We waited for her but when 8:00am came she still haven’t arrive. So we texted and also called her to asked where she is and she told us “Padulong nako North Bus (I’m on my way to North Bus )”. Also James and Ching was there already because they though they wouldn’t catch up if they would go to the office to meet us.
In North Bus Terminal…
This is a new Bus already because the first bus that we jumped into was really full. But it was a really wrong choice because the bus got hit by a PUJ in Lilo-an. We were stuck there for about an hour because the bus driver needed to report it the he nearest polices station. After everything that happen we arrive safe and sound in Bogo.
Me and Nadz sat together on the bus and we has fun talking about our team. We were also laughing because of this Preacher asking for donations. After we placed our donations on this envelop that he gave us he grab it and didn’t even say thank you. But we really didn’t mind at all…
In Bogo…
Back in the office when we were waiting for Lunica to arrive, we planned to eat our lunch in the port wait while waiting for the barge to leave but when we get there it was about 5 minutes more to go before the barge would leave for Bantayan. So we just ran towards the barge as fast as we can. Some of us was able to get something to eat but some got sandwich and hardboiled egg.
On our way to the barge…
I know I said that we were running but it doesn’t show in this picture. hehehe!!
In the barge for Bantayan…
I took a lot of pictures going up the stairs but it seems it got deleted.
I had to take a picture of myself.
The waves were like mountain high. Everyone almost throw-up. Well, actually elmer did throw-up.
In BANTAYAN ISLAND… Weeeee!!
Everyone was very happy that we already docked. I was very happy to because a few more seconds and I would fill the whole barge with… I rather not say it. Any way, everyone raced to get-off the barge.
Everyone just can’t stop taking pictures because they are very happy to survive the cross.
We are almost there…
Our ride to the resort…
We are here!! Santa Fe Beach Resort… weeeeeeee!!
Everyone was very happy when we arrive on the resort all in one piece. As you can see in this picture there are only few of us because everyone is laying down in the waiting lounge. People still had the energy to take pictures walked around and took more pictures.
They served us some juices and we stayed in the lounge for a few minutes.
I had to check on the news paper while wait for us to go to our place.
And… where we were staying…
Elmo said that it worth 15 thousand pesos but had a discount because his father is one of the owners of the resort.
This is one of the rooms of the house. There are 2 rooms in the house and one the rooms had 3 beds and the other one only got one bed. All of the girls stayed in this room.
After everyone settled down and put everything in place we started to cook for dinner. Me and Aj were the once who cooked the rice. We didn’t go any pictures of us cooking rice because everyone was very tired to get up and take pictures. However, they were able to take pictures of them cooking the meat and others.
While they were grilling the meat everyone else was taking a nap. They did a really great job in grilling.
The rice was very bad. We had to cook another batch of rice because it wasn’t cook really well. Also, we tried to save it but same thing.
If you can see that brown thing on the left, that is the rice that we cooked. It looks yummy but tasted horrible but some of us liked it. Also, Levi M. and the other did a really great job in cooking other delicacy.

Weeeeeeeeeee!! Eating time!!
Me, James, Edz and Jewel was able to buy banana for dinner. I so hate James because he didn’t told us that he brought some extra money with him. Me and Edz would like to buy some shake but he said that we don’t have extra money. When we got back to the place he payed the habal2x driver 100 pesos and I really though that we only got 80 pesos left. Geeerrrrrrr!!!
After everything that happened everyone was very full. We couldn’t even move from our sits. So what we did was just talk until we were able to get up and went to the beach and also the cave. Everyone was having a great time that night. Me, Flip, Lunica and Paw talk until 4 or 5am and it was all about anything we can think of, well most of the time I was talking but they didn’t mind. Hehehehe!! Hope so…
