Hello, Steemians. Earlier this year boyfriend and I backpacking around Philippines and this is the last part of Philippines I share with you guys. For anyone not familiar with Boracay this is what with Wikipedia has to say about it.

Boracay is a small island in the Philippines located approximately 315 km south of Manila and 2 km off the northwest tip of Panay Island in Western Visayas region of the Philippines. Boracay Island and its beaches have received awards from numerous travel publications and agencies.

菲律宾长滩岛
长滩岛是菲律宾中部的一座岛屿，属于西米沙鄢群岛，位于班乃岛西北2公里，是菲律宾最有名的旅游胜地之一，这里优质的沙滩被誉为“世界上最细的沙滩”。这里优质的海景、低廉的物价、离中国较近是吸引游人前来的诱人理由。这里有很多中国，韩国游客。

Day 19: 7th of April

We flew to Iloilo for one night, and took the bus to Caticlan the next morning. Flying to Iloilo was way cheaper than direct to Caticlan and it was a 6 hour bus ride which was not bad to us. When we arrived to the ferry and went to buy the boat tickets and the tax costed more than the boat ticket. It is just five minutes to get to Bocacay Island, didn't know why it costed that much until we got on the boat, it was really nice.

从巴拉望飞去伊洛比直飞Caticlan便宜一半，所以我们选择飞到伊洛，然后在那休息一晚，第二天在做大巴前往Caticlan。
从伊洛坐大巴到Caticlan大概6个小时左右的车程，费用100多peso。来到Caticlan的码头，就去买船票，结果税比船票还贵。两个人500Peso,好贵啊，就几分钟的距离，上船之后才发现自己原来买的是豪华仓，难怪这么贵。

Day 20-24: 7th-13th of April relaxing and chilling

We stayed Surfers Home Boracay, which was 600 meters away from the white beach and 400 meters from the center. It's pretty good price for this location. We already did the island hopping in Palawan and Boracay is so touristic and everything is more expensive than other places. So we just relaxed on the beach, swam, and sun bathed.

我们住的酒店Surfers Home Boracay在white beach的另一边，出门口就是沙滩了，距离长滩岛white beach 600米，走路去市中心还是很近的。因为我们之前在巴拉望已经玩了很多水上活动和潜水，所以在长滩岛我们主要是休息，每天睡到自然醒然后去海边游泳，沙滩上享受阳光浴，喝杯咖啡或者鸡尾酒。这种感觉真棒!😁😁😄

Drinking cocktail on the beach, lovely

Mark and I

Enjoyed our coffee and cakes every afternoon here.

Mark just came back from swimming

Having dinner on the beach and watching sunset.

What a beautiful view.

Taking a walk after dinner.

Day 25: 14th Taking the cruise back to Luzon.

We had 6 days in Boracay and took the overnight cruise back to Luzon. We booked the boat tickets(2go travel) online, and printed it out and copyed your passport and credit card as well. They were very specific about copies of everything or else they would deny entry to the boat, it was a bit odd. We slept in the boat in a series of open air bunks and woke up in the middle of ocean, the sunrise was so beautiful over the ocean.

2Go这家公司有点搞笑，我们在网上订的船票，却要我们自己打印行程单，然后复印护照和信用卡给他们，机票都不用那么的复杂，然后不出船票，行程单就是我们的船票，晚上9点的船🚢，7点多就来到码头，结果等到差不多10点才上船！长这么大还没有坐过这么大的轮船。10个小时的船🚢，就在这度过了一晚！早上6点醒来的时候，发现在海中央看日出是这么的美！

The sunrise was so beautiful over the ocean.

Day 25-26: 14th-15th Visit friends in Clark.

When we came back to Luzon and we took the bus to Clarkon that day. We spent two days there and drove to Subic Bay for half a day to see the ocean.
