Coron

When I was 9 or 10 years old, my lola brought my cousins and I to our province in Palawan. It was an all girls summer trip because lola only chose the girls in the family to come with her. It could've been different actually if the boys went. But heck, the trip was still fun of course.

I really can't remember how long we stayed there, but I can still clearly remember the beaches that we went to. We went beach hopping, and it was the best part of the whole trip. Imagine, I've experienced going to an island where we were the only ones there. It was a small yet beautiful island. The water was clear, and the sand's so white. The other island that we went to was the Black Island. We also went to some lakes there, and one lake that we went to was inside a cave.

The beaches weren't just the place that we went to there. We also went to visit the zoo. Although I cannot clearly remember all the animals that we've seen there, I can remember that we fed giraffes. The giraffes were beautiful, and feeding them was another experience. There were also crocodiles there in their crocodile farm.

Aside from the beautiful beaches and the animals there, we had great food everyday. It was there that I've experienced eating lobsters and tuna that are really big and fresh. I can not also forget when we suddenly woke up when we heard a pig crying, which became our lechon that night. That actually freaked us a little, but well, the lechon was delicious so that didn't bother us that much.

It was also there that I've experienced people sleeping early. And when I say early, it's really early. The people there slept at around 8 in the evening, and that for me is really early. And it's in there that we've experienced seeing a Tuko, which was weird because we were having dinner that time. It actually made us paranoid that the Tuko might just crawl and be stuck on us, but thank God that didn't happen.

I don't know what Coron looks like now, but I'm still hoping that I'd be able to go back there. Who wouldn't after what I've seen and experienced there?
