Philippine Travel Notes

I just finished the first leg of my three-legged air-travel. This time, I was transiting in CGY . You know what that means, why and where, right? If you still don't.., go review ! I think I said in the previous story, or previous other stories, that this was a first time I transited at CGY, in modern recorded history! OMG I did not?! So I'm saying it now! At ano nanaman iyang history-history na yan? Well, in the past, I think even as late as the '90s, CGY was already a mini-hub (meaning it had flights to many destinations), so we could transit at that airport. An example would be: MNL-CGY-DVO, two flights . But unlike now, none of the flights I took before were recorded via pics or videos, as digicams & cellphones weren't yet around! Camera film was still too expensive then. At walang pang blog noon! So, therefore wherefore, nothing was really recorded - as far as I was concerned! And, all those were at Lumbia , so this was really a first time. O sya,

Departure time from Bohol Panglao International Airport. I was on my way to Davao. Departure Curbside and Entrance As seen in the previous story , getting off the public bus from Alona Beach, I looked left and saw this: That far end is the arrival area (which I already talked about a few days ago). Across that (left edge of photo) is where you'll find the public bus going to Alona Beach, all the way to Tagbilaran's city center. I could see there's a public toilet between arrivals and departures (door near the woman in red shirt). Good that there is such a thing there, because that is an 'important necessity' - for passengers or not! Then I looked right, which was rather empty (I should've trained the camera a bit more to the right)! Wouldn't it be better if that expanse of a red floor had benches (at-least), for well-wishers to sit on? I mean look, there are people sitting on the crash rails (metallic tubes where the floor and wall meets).

My way out of Boracay continues... As earlier said, we arrived at Caticlan Airport (MPH) too early, thanks to the very fast and efficient (yet courteous and jolly) services of Astoria Current Staff. Early but happy - with time for more photo-ops! Look, there were not many people at the airport yet! Our speedboat ride was just very fast (but safe). That manner of transfer btw (via "private" speedboats) would be most ideal for those of you with lots of luggage (they assist you on those), the elderly, and little tykes. Well yes, for the barkada too, to still have fun even as you get out of the island! So far, the best ever exit I've had, from Boracay to Caticlan. The catch: you will have to book your accommodations with hotels/resorts that have "private" boats! Anyway, let's depart from Caticlan (I was on my way to Cebu, with a connecting flight to Tacloban). I didn't reverse my circuitous way coming to this place, because I found that the MPH
