Basco, Batanes
-July, 2010-
We were still staying at the Sea Side Lodge on our last day in Batanes. Since we already ran out of cash we decided to stay in Basco for the day. After breakfast we swam at the beach on the back of our hotel. Even if the sand was not white, the water was clear and the view was great. There were even pretty boulders present.

After our morning swim we went around Basco Plaza hunting for a tricycle which would take us to Fundacion Pacita come dinner time. I already made reservations. After about an hour of inquiry we were able to find one for P250. The tricycle would take us to our destination and wait for us to finish. It was a good enough deal since transportation was scarce due to high gasoline prices. Their unleaded was priced at P65/L and the diesel for P53/L.
During mid afternoon we went back to our hotel to rest. Our tricycle picked us up by 7pm for dinner. The dinner was superb! They served mushroom soup, Roasted Chicken, Steamed Fish and Ivatan Salad (which I loved! I don't know what kind of vegetable was used but it was 100% fresh). The P600/ head was worth it.
Spending our last night at Fundacion Pacita was the perfect move to end our Batanes trip.
