PLACE: CORON PALAWAN
 |
| The most photograph island in Coron: Kayangan |
It was October
when my eyes catch the seat sale at Philippine Airlines, without thinking too
much I booked my roundtrip ticket for Coron and Boracay, yes you read it right,
Coron and Boracay, it was fun at first when I booked this flight without
analyzing about the seasons.
When my friend
learned about it she just said “Are you okey, you sure you can do it, how will
you file a leave? what about the weather? And your budget?” I answered her with
a smile and shrugged.
In my mind these
questions was really serious, but I just stay positive about it, besides I
still have 9 months to prepare and I don’t want to worry on the things that
hasn’t come in my way.
Before this trip
came, I decided to visit the Sagada, Baguio and Calaguas so I really spend on
these out of town trips and my budget for Coron and Boracay is getting thinner.
Filing vacation
is difficult for me too, so what I did is I filed it 2 months before my
departure and fix everything to avoid rush and prayed that God would give me a
good weather and NO Cancel Flight because June – October is a rainy season and
July and August is the most crucial weather in this tropical country.
When the 2014
came, I began to scout some cheapest accommodation yet near to the community
and I spotted the momita’s lodge and with the great reviews from tripadvisor
and blogs, I choose her and contacted her 3 months before my flight and good
thing the P700.00 A/C (green room) room is still available.
Originally, my
flight is 3:40pm but for some reasons the airlines change it into 2:20pm and
that means cramming on my part to get to the airport, and I need to check in
before the 45 minutes closing time, so to avoid delayed I decided not to report
for work that day and headed to the airport because my place was too far and
traffic jam is everywhere due to bad weather that day.
I check inn
early and too bad I didn’t check inn my baggage and while waiting for our
flight the airline announces that there was a delayed because of low visibility
in Busuanga Airport, so my 2:20pm flight became 4:00pm, I cannot blame this to
the airlines, it was the safety that is at stake, 4 announcement of delayed
flight worried me and started to say a little prayer, then God heard and answer
me, the 5th announcement is boarding time.. yahoo!!!
The flight was
smooth and I just enjoyed watching clouds

Past 5:00pm arrived at Momita’s
Lodge, I just put my bags inside my room and asked for coffee and head to Coron
gallery to purchase some pasalubong, Mamita was so helpful, she recommended me
this place and I found the staff very accommodating, it doesn’t matter if you
purchase one shirt, they will gladly still assist you.
Momita’s lodge is located in the
center of the community in Coron, you can walk from her place to Mt Tapyas and
Port is just near to her place.
I wanted to visit Mt. Tapyas on my
first day but because I arrived late, Ruth warned me that it would be dangerous
for me to go there because there is no street light, so I decided to wake up
early morning next day to visit the place besides it was just a walking
distance.
