My Easter Weekend

Summer is here...finally! 
I went to Bantayan on the weekend of the Holy Week for a much needed escape from the city. This is the first time that I have ever travelled alone to Bantayan. The ferry ride shook me (literally and figuratively speaking). The tide was huge and the wind was strong. If I didn’t had a strong stomach, my entire breakfast and lunch would have gone down the drain. Stayed on the beach for only a couple of hours, it was packed! It was also my first time ever going to Santa Fe Beach on the weekend of the Holy Week; we usually go there the Monday after Easter, when the crowd already left the island. The real gem of my visit was the time spent with my nieces. One was skinny and small-framed like me and the other one is all big-bones and booming-voice, but they bonded so well that we had to sleep on my cousin's house without toothbrush and change of clothes for a night. They would stop playing until they dropped dead of exhaustion! It was one of the happiest moments I have with them, and I may never get another chance.
My Bantayan Holy Week visit? Short but definitely a blast!
