We stayed at the Sheridan Villas during the first 2 nights of our trip before shifting to One Crescent Place. Sheridan Villas was alright. Level 1 consisted of the living room, a kitchen and restroom while level 2 was the bedroom & another rest room. Nice place, friendly hosts, just that we were there at the wrong time. Due to Typhoon Haiyan the entire island was experiencing power surge here & there. So it was wake up call for us when the AC went off in the mornings, haha...

| Breakfast. I know doesn't look appetizing, but was alright for me :D |

From the previous night.
View from this shop that sells tasty crepes and alright churros! |
We decided that day 2 will be water sports day! Oh, 1 thing I must mention about White Beach is the extremely high level of touting. Every 8 steps you take, there is bound to be someone asking if you want to play water sports, buy sunglasses, hats, waterproof pouches, or some wood carving thing. So live with it, hahaha! Don't worry about negotiating/bargaining since there are so many of them around.
Moving on, we managed to get a deal which consisted of flying fish (something like banana boat, just that the float literally flies off the surface), helmet diving and island hopping at 2,000 Peso (S$57). Helmet diving was alright, good experience I must say, but too boring for me. They actually provided a CD with a video and some photos of us underwater, pretty hilarious. Island hopping includes lunch (which took damn long to be served) on an island and 2 snorkeling trips somewhere. The current was so strong and honestly, there wasn't much to see... So I wouldn't recommend this, especially if you aren't into snorkeling, or afraid of large amount of fishes (not that there were many to begin with) :D

| Island hoppers! |
 |
| Where is my lunch... I need to lie down, so hungry... |
 |
| Did not have fun for this one. |
It should be around 3pm when we went back to Boracay island. Headed back to our hotel to wash up, played some card games, had instant noodle before heading out again. We had Yellow Cab Pizza for dinner, which I recommend trying. It was good! Roamed around looking for clubs and pubs when we realised that it was still too early for parties. Shall not elaborate much on this part cause it really wasn't much, haha! The point is that parties start at around 11 - 12am... There are still pubs with acoustic live bands and some road side vendors to check out though. Lesser touting at night, and the land breeze at night... Chilling! Oh, we had this Reyes Barbecues for dinner on day 1 and all I want to say is... "Try at your own risk" :D
 |
| Ok, I'm craving for pizza now. |
That's about it for day 2, stay tuned for the final installation of our Boracay trip!
