Phycology Class

Puerto Galera 

Map of Puerto Galera 

We had this amazing Puerto Galera trip last February 9 to 10, 2013. 

My classmates and I

Before we headed to our educational tour for our Phycology class, my classmates and I stayed for several hours at Mcdonald's near the bus terminal. 

By 4 o'clock in the morning we boarded the bus.  After the long hours of road travel we headed to the Batangas Port to reach Puerto Galera. 

Here are some of the pictures taken during our boat ride :)

The Singaporean Lion

I'm so happy because I've learned that you don't have to go to Singapore just to have a glimpse of this lion , lol!

Yummy treats! Lunch time! 

Enjoy our sumptuous meal

Following the advice of Tyra Banks

Every time I'm going to pose in front of the camera Tyra Banks reminds me that each woman is unique and pretty.

The sky is becoming darker

The water is so cold .......but I like it

Deep thinking just looking at the horizon (reflecting?)

Dinner is serve, bon apetite :) 

While having dinner the fire dancing begins...I thought fire dancing only happens in Boracay but on the second thought I am wrong. 

Morning walks with my classmates

Farewell Puerto Galera!

My last shot of the island, we are planning to come back it is really a magnanimous place to be!

Each place here on Earth is beautiful in their own right. Joining an educational tour in the graduate school is a dream come true for me. Not only you could go out of the city and explore the various paradise you haven't visited before but it is a chance of a lifetime. Furthermore, having an opportunity to witness the grandeur of every tourist spots here in the country makes me proud that I am living here in the Philippines.
