This Puerto Galera post is long overdue. :)
When people say Puerto Galera, we immediately think of the famous White Beach. It is like,IMO, the fake Boracay of the Philippines. I have been there twice already and eversince I have experienced Boracay and the other beaches of our country, I have never looked back. So when the Quezon plan for our Thanksgiving off was shattered in to pieces, I did not think of Puerto Galera as the alternate destination. But since I was already slightly pissed off, I just said yes when my only companion for the trip said we should try out Talipanan Beach of Puerto Galera. I'm glad I said yes and did not decide to stay at home for four effing days..
My friend manage to make a reservation to Lucas Miramare. It was an Italian restaurant in the island first but they decided to have a small lodge as well.
Since Talipanan Beach is nothing like White Beach at all (no loud music, no teens getting drunk and being rowdy and not too many tourist) all Sam and I did was swim, eat, take pictures and appreciate the scenery.
And did I already tell you all we did was eat Italian food which is like my favorite food besides Korean food and Filipino food..
I remember being so full (that I felt like I was dying) every after meal. I wanted to smoke so bad every time we finish a meal, but since I quit smoking already, I did not bring any. It was a good thing though..
It was a great experience. The beach, food and the location was awesome.
