So Lincoln and I woke up about 6. Ty and Ryder were still asleep and the generator and AC had just turned back on. We tried to go back to sleep but it just wasn’t happening. Our plan for the day before Ty got sick was to go on one of the famous tour cruises.… Continue reading Adventure Day: El Nido, Philippines
Travel Day: Coron to El Nido, Philippines
Lincoln and I slept for 10 hours last night! It felt so good. I’m on the mend but unfortunately the first thing he did upon waking up was go throw up. Womp womp! So back to bed he went while Ty, Ryder, and I got breakfast. No way I ate even half of this. Then… Continue reading Travel Day: Coron to El Nido, Philippines
Adventure Day: Coron, Philippines
The trip roller coaster continues: We woke up to Lincoln telling us he vomited 4x in the night. The plan for today was to go out on another all day cruise for some more snorkeling. However, it doesn’t look like Lincoln should go. Then it hits me, ‘intestinal distress’ and I’m not going anywhere outside… Continue reading Adventure Day: Coron, Philippines
Travel Day: Cebu to Coron (take 2)
Ty and I started the day off early thanks to the neighborhood roosters. Ugh off and on since about 4am and then constant from 6am on. Ty found out that the day tour he thought he booked for today was actually for tomorrow. So we had no plans. This led him to look into flights… Continue reading Travel Day: Cebu to Coron (take 2)

Ty had booked for us the Coron Island tour. So we got up by 7 to meet our ride by 7:30. Breakfast in the hotel was pretty basic but it worked.

We started the day out early, I think Ty, and I were up at 4:30am. Ugh jet lag. Ryder was around 5ish and Linc a bit after her. We relaxed in the room for a bit.

We’re spending a week and a half in the Philippines island hopping, snorkeling, and playing in the sun. Then we spend a week in Japan skiing at their famous resorts outside of Nagano. It was… Continue reading Travel Day: Anchorage, AK USA to Manila, Philippines
