My boat to Iloilo didn't leave until 3pm so I got up and headed for the shops in search of trousers seems my skirt, my one pair of shorts and my one pair of trousers all had permanent egg stains on them. Two pairs and six dollars later I was happy so went to book my boat ticket. On the schedule it didn't tell you when the boat arrived but need not worry I figured it would probably arrive some time the next day late arvo. In actual fact after 17hrs on the boat I thought it would be a good idea to find out when it would be arriving. The following day, early morning I told. Opps my bad two nights on the boat!

Actually, we really planned to go to Iloilo after Boracay but because of the incident we considered to proceed what we had planned. On our way to Kalibo, we were still hesitant if we are going to Iloilo or take our return flight from Kalibo. As we were approaching Kalibo, we were now decided to go straight to Iloilo and enjoy the rest of the ride. After a 3-hour long bus ride, we finally arrived in Dingle, Iloilo. By the way, Dingle is Rex's hometown, so we headed up to their home and spent there a peaceful night. In the morning of the next, we prepared our ... read more
