Hundred Islands, Pangasinan
-Feb, 2010-
Pangasinan has been my area for almost three years for work. I constantly go there month on month as a Key Accounts Manager for Nutri-Asia foodservice division. Still, I haven't explored the Hundred Islands so for our 2010 Valentine's Day celebration I asked my hubby and his friends to go on a trip there. I would provide the gas and the car (perks of the job) and they agreed without second thoughts. Eric, Jho, Nico and Monique went on a road trip with us night time, we reached Alaminos around 4am. We found a transient house by asking around and rented it for only P2,500. It had 2 bedrooms both with airconditioner, a sala, a kitchen and a house help whom we could ask to market for us, and that we did. She bought food stuff for our breakfast and packed lunch for our island tour.

We rented a boat which would be taking us around the area.
We first did snorkeling. The water was not as clear as I anticipated, I didn't enjoy it that much plus there were hardly any fish to be seen just huge clams.
After our snorkeling we went to Quezon Island for lunch. This island is famous for picnickers. It was crowded. We explored the island a bit before hopping on the the next.
After Quezon Island we went to visit Cuenco Island. It had a cave and on the edge of the cave lies an opening to the sea. Magnificent view.
We then dropped by Children's Island.
The best island we visited was the Romulo Island which is a small island with white fine sand. It does not get hot even if the weather's a bit humid, it remained cool. It was a perfect place to chill. I enjoyed our stay there.
Last stop was the Governor's Island also known as the PBB Island, so-called because it houses the house which was used during the PBB Teen edition.
We left the hundred islands come sunset.
Back to our hotel we had shrimps for dinner and surprisingly so, I retired earlier than the rest of my companions.
