Even with the ‘get out of town' frigid weather we had, i had not decided :(
i really enjoyed my trip last year, and wanted to return. but was very cognizant of the fact that the ‘bar' had been set pretty high. it’s always hard to top that ‘first time’, huh?
i did some research on some of the other 7,000+ Philippine islands that i had not visited last year. i was interested in the western islands, accessed through Manila, because they are so popular. but after much consideration, i didn’t think i would be happy there. many recommendations NOT to go during ‘high season’ ...Jan-Feb-Mar. plus i couldn’t find many islands where i could ‘snorkel from shore’. most of the 'snorkel islands' are only accessible by boat tours; which are ok, but costly and actual time in the water is limited and restricted.
Further research pointed me to different sets of islands, which i could reach by flying into Cebu like i did last year. i contacted Kevin and Nadia, my hosts-friends from last year and they were agreeable to another visit ,,,, decision made.
it’s like ‘people’ say, just book the flight, get there, and then figure it out :)
So that’s what i did. I am on the island of Bohol in the Philippines.
