Boracay Virgin Resort is in Puka Beach

Boracay is the famous known white sand beach front in the Philippines. We got there in the afternoon and found a lot of people in the shore.

I've documented my visit and took a video but some other friends say that this time is far better than the other days.

Anyway we had visited Puka Beach localted in the north part of Boracay Island. We've taken pictures and posted our highlight photos. Another documentation taken for our trip in Boracay.

Kalibo Tour Adventure to Boracay

I've heard about Boracay that it is one of the famous beach in the Philippines. It is located in the north province of Aklan and this was discovered by tourist since 1970. Until today it is the highlight for many tourist in the country as well as internationally.

This time my wife booked a plane ticket going to Kalibo because it is one way you can get a cheaper flight going to Boracay. The airport in Kalibo is 1 hour or 1 1/2 hr travel going to Caticlan through V-Hire or Bus. The cost for a V-hire or Bus is around Php100.00 to Php200.00. 

After arriving in Kalibo from our flight we leave our baggage in our Hotel and visit some tourist destination. We took tricycle and visited one of the oldest museum in the main proper of Kalibo. 

Learning Kalibo History

I've learn some few history where Kalibo came from. It is from the Spanish who baptized 1000 people to Christianity. That is where the Libo which mean a thousand word came from. The Ka mean because the people in this island was called Aklanon they just make a work "Kalibo" which was use by many and this is where the place called "Kalibo".

We took a night in Kalibo and spend our night at Cess Hotel. It was a nice hotel and free breakfast. 

Before we leave Kalibo one of my councilor during our service in our Apas Ward is from Kalibo. I've tried to chat him and he told us to visit their parents. We took the advice and visited the mother of Rodel Dolorfino. We took a tricycle and find the place. At first the mother of Rodel didn't recognized us but when we inform her that I'm with Rodel in Cebu, then she immediately remember us. 

She invited us for lunch and we had much conversation. She told a lot of her life and I'm happy to know more about her. I've learned that she is optimist to raise his family through cooking. In that skill that God has blessed her she was able to earn money to buy a lot and build a house for her family since his husband only get few income for his work. She was able also to put her daughter and son to a good school until they had finish their courses.  

After our conversation we need to leave them and go to the terminal of the V-hire. We arrive in Caticlan around 2pm and took some Ferry to get to Boracay Island.  There are two ways to go to Boracay which we took the Air-conditioned ferry that cost us around Php100.00 for the terminal, Php75.00 for the Air-conditioned ferry and Php100 for the environmental fee. 

After arriving in Boracay there are available Etricycle that you can ride that cost you around Php10.00 or Php20.00 pesos depending on the distance where you will go. 

Guideline for Online Writing or Communication

I've like to quote what I've learn from BYU Idaho here in my blog. 

There are many people who didn't even notice that proper communication will lead to better understanding and learning. 

These are the guidelines that are share in our course 

Many students have formed online writing habits based on the mistaken belief that standard spelling, punctuation, and grammar rules do not apply when writing online posts. These habits may be acceptable when writing emails to friends or connecting on social media websites, but when writing online in all of your college coursework (including discussion boards), good online writing habits should be treated more seriously.

Use the following guidelines when you communicate online:

• Always proofread what you write. Reread your writing to check for little mistakes like spelling and punctuation errors before sending or submitting your work. 
• Make a meaningful subject line. Whether posting on a discussion board or writing an email, give your message a subject title that indicates the contents of the message.
• When sending an email or a message, use the person's name at the beginning of the communication. Example: "Dear Bob,"
• Be specific about who you are, why you are writing, and what you want.
• AVOID USING CAPS. IT GIVES THE IMPRESSION THAT YOU ARE YELLING AT YOUR READER, AND IT CAN BE MORE DIFFICULT TO READ.
• the other extreme is the more common habit of not using any capitalization at all. remember, when writing in english, to capitalize the word "i" when referring to one's self and to capitalize the first letter of each sentence.
  • Corrected form of the statement above: The other extreme is the more common habit of not using any capitalization at all. Remember, when writing in English, to capitalize the word "I" when referring to one's self and to capitalize the first letter of each sentence.
• Sometimes students who struggle with punctuation will choose to stop using it altogether even if punctuation isnt your strength at least make your best guess about where to put commas periods apostrophes (') etc not having any at all is hard on your reader
  • Corrected form of the statement above: Sometimes, students who struggle with punctuation will choose to stop using it altogether. Even if punctuation isn't your strength, at least make your best guess about where to put commas, periods, apostrophes ('), etc. Not having any at all is hard on your reader.
• Tone: Sometimes joking does not come across very well in email or posts. Emoticons (smiley faces, frowns, winks) are fine for communicating between friends or classmates, but should be avoided for formal or first-time communications.
• Don't overuse exclamation points!!! It gives a much greater sense of urgency to your message than it likely deserves!!
• Avoid over-stating your point by using an overly aggressive or offensive tone. Remember, if you wouldn't state your message so strongly to someone face to face, then don't do it online. It's possible to be passionate without being rude.
• Do not write in an abbreviated "text messaging" style in posts or emails. IMO, its hard 2 read and not really easier 4 u 2 write.
  • Translation of the statement above: In my opinion, it's hard to read and not really easier for you to write.
