Henna Tattoo in Boracay

Who would not miss a chance to have a henna tattoo while having a vacation in the island of Boracay.  I'm not a fan of tattoo.  Don't get me wrong, I also appreciate tattoo as another form of art expression.   But putting the tattoo (permanent) on my own skin?  I really have to say NO!

However, during our vacation in Boracay, I opted to chose a design and put a henna tattoo on my skin.  I find a hard time choosing a design since most of them are nice.  

Gastronomic Adventures in Boracay

When you are in a vacation, food pops out of our mind.  Have a Boracay vacation blast by not only enjoying the beach, sand and water activities but also the foods Boracay offers to its guests.

White Sand, Sun, Beach = BORACAY SUMMER FUN!!!

My husband and I decided to have a Boracay vacation as a gift to our little Kaizle on her 2nd birthday.   This wass not our first time in Boracay.  Actually, we've been here for a couple of times already.  But what's special about this vacation is that this was the first Boracay experience of our little daughter.

We had our vacation on April 7 - 9, 2013.  I was very much pleased that Kaizle enjoyed our treat for her.  As expected, she loved to play with the sand with her pail set.  She woke us up as early as 6 AM and would insist on going to the beach front for a swim.  

Here are the photos of our little Kaizle enjoying the sands and beach of Boracay :

ATV Rides & Buggy Carts : A Boracay Experience

Okay, I have to admit that I don't have a driver's license and I don't know how to drive.  Or better yet, the proper words to use are, "I don't have the guts to drive!"

Well, I love adventure.  I already tried life-risking adventures like wall-climbing (without the harness and other sfaety devices attached to my body), rappelling from a high mountain, zipline and other forms of adventure.  But really, I am too scared to drive a vehicle.

With the famous ATV and buggy cart rides in the island of Boracay, who would not miss this kind of fun.  Credits to my husband who was around that we rented a buggy cart.  Me as the passenger and husband as my driver.  (Sorry, I am really scared of driving even a buggy cart.)

Boracay's Happy Dreamland Trick Museum

One of the attractions in the Happy Dreamland Amusement Park is its Art Museum featuring 3D portraits.  You get to feel like its real when looking at the pictures.

Sharing to you some of the pictures taken inside the Art Museum :

Happy Dreamland

Welcome to Boracay's newest amusement park!  Entering to Happy Dreamland feels like entering to a mini-Enchanted Kingdom.  But before going inside the dreamland, I have to tell you that the Happy Dreamland has shuttle vans roaming around Stations 1 - 3 where you can ride going to and from the amusement park - for FREE. We never knew about this until we end our tour.

From our place in Station 1, we rode on an E-trike going to Happy Dreamland for PhP75.00.  As per conversation with the driver, the E-trike is a project of the local government unit there but still on a trial period.  As of date, there are only 10 units of E-trikes functioning around the island.

Inexpensive Accommodations Near Station 1, Boracay

For the nth time, we went to the island of Boracay to spend a 3-day vacation.   This time, we chose an inexpensive place because we will be only using our room to rest or sleep and to take a bath or change clothes.  Most of the time, we will be out of our room doing beach activities, eating, touring around the island or swimming.

For this vacation, we chose the Casamso Boracay Resort.  Casamso is the sister hostel next door to Frendz Resort Boracay.  We booked at Casamso through their Frendz' Facebook account.  The transaction went smoothly where they required us for a 50% deposit through online banking.  You can also try to connect with them through this number 0939 3242789.
