These pictures were taken way back 2008, March at Puerto Galera, Mindoro; of course Philippines.  There are beautiful beaches there like the ones below... We stayed at Nirvana Hotel (though we stayed there only to sleep). The rest of the getaway was spent in 'gala'. We went to see the Tamaraw Falls.. and witnessed the vast resources we have in Puerto Galera... mountains and trees... on our way to a private beach (they said)... don't know the name. We went snorkeling also... especially the boys and the kids. There were lots of  beautiful views in Puerto Galera.  You'll like this place especially if you love oceans and seas.

Pictures of rocks brought into pieces by the waves of the sea ...

   We had our Holy Week vacation here in Puerto Galera with the Sapitan Family... it was fun! We got there  by a long drive from Cavite to Batangas City Port...

   Upon arrival in Batangas pier, we went to Terminal 3 (for outrigger ferries) or Terminal 2 (for RORO ferry) and find the ticket booths of the ferries going to Puerto Galera.

  We were picked up by a long jeepney - service from the hotel...  - the hotel was not so impressive though. Thank God that we had this, at least, knowing how hard it was to book on Holy week times.

  God, we are so blessed being here and letting us see the awesome creatures You have for us to appreciate  and enjoy. Thank YOU for this gift!                                                                                                                            March 2008
