FIRTS TOUR is so much memorable

My first travel experience happened in Puerto Galera. Puerto Galera is also part of Luzon. This is the first travel that I'm not with my parents. In this travel, I am accompanied by my fellow tourism students and our Dept. head, together with some of our professors. On our way to Puerto Galera we rode a bus that would take us to Batangas Port. We take a RORO from Batangas Port to Puerto Galera Port and a jeepney from Puerto Galera Port to the Nirvana Hotel and Resort. We left school at 7:00 am and arrived in the resort at 3:00pm. When we arrived, we ate first. The foods were delicious. The workers there have some similarities when it comes to the color of their skin. Their all somehow burnt in color. But I find them sexy because of it.

We checked-in and our keys were given by our professors. I was in the room next from the main resort. I feel good being there even though it’s not the main one because we have our own pool in the place. Our room is big and beautiful. In our room there’s 3 big beds and 2 folding beds, enough beds for ten of us. Students that are on the main resort were not allowed to go to our place but we are allowed to go to there’s. We were oriented by the tour guides. After the orientation we were grouped by the tour guides for a cheer dance competition as part of the amazing race. The first game was held on that evening. Continuition of the amazing race happened on our 2nd day there.

Amazing race is a game of tasks to be completed to the students. We must have determination and dedication. It was a race that needs team work and cooperation. It was so much fun. The feeling was amazing. It feels like we are playing on a paradise. We were able to travel in many places in Puerto Galera by playing the games they organized. The places we’ve been by doing the amazing race were Bulabod beach and White beach. We went to those beaches without even knowing the way nor the direction. We searched thoroughly  for the key into the pool to be able to start the jeepney to the beach. The driver we had only follow if we said “andar and hinto” and never talked to us because it was part of the game. We have to find the next destination by our selves. The Bulabod beach has very  fine pebbles and clean seashore. The white beach was also a wonderful beach with outstanding scenery. I have seen many tourists walking in the beach. The last beach we’ve been was the Haligi beach. We went there by taking a small boat. We did snorkeling there which becomes my favorite activity in everything we did in our tour.. While snorkeling, I’ve seen a lot of tiny fishes of color's black. While snorkeling I feed the fishes and they are having fun eating. I also rode into a Banana Boat. It was really great and I had so much fun! We went back to the resort and I swim a little while into the pool. The next thing was fixing my things and waved goodbye to Puerto Galera. We’ve been in Puerto Galera in 3 days and 2 nights.
