Davao - day 2

Second day - We woke up early, prepare our bags, got dressed and hit the beach. Paradise Island here we go...

~ In the van on the way to the beach. ~

I prepared for a an hour or two drive but what do you know, the car ride was only 15 minutes. And then it's time to ride a boat bound to our destination. The little angel was crying because she wants to soak in the water already.

~ She refuses to look at the camera because she wants to deep in the water. ~

Then we finally convinced the little kiddo to hop in because there's another beach that we're suppose to go and it's much nicer there. It was.

~ The boat ride to Paradise Island. ~

The boat ride was just 15 minutes and there we were at Paradise. For only Php 100, we enjoyed fresh air, quiet and clear waters.

~ At the entrance... ~

The little angel was literally smiling when we saw and felt the sand on her feet. She shifted to a happy mood instantly.

~ oooohhhh... sand! ~

The little angel and the hubby ran to the shore and worked on the sand. We settled in just in front of the shore. The water was clear and calm.

~ Work in progress... ~

I joined them and of course, more picture taking. Since I don't have a tripod, I needed to put the cam down on the sand and set it on timer mode. And finally took a nice photo of us. I love this shot! Our faces were kinda dark because we were in the shade. Unfortunately, I don't know how to edit this on adobe.

~ This is us. Beach addicts. ~

And of course, while they proceed with their sand jobs, I was out there checking out the water. It was still crystal clear below, just like before when I first came there 10 years ago.

~ It's a whole new world under the sea. ~

After the delicious lunch, we swam a little more and then negotiated with the little kiddo because it was time to take a bath and get dressed. Obviously, she still doesn't want to go.

~ Boat ride home ~

We had tan lines when we got home. Obviously, the little kiddie was so tired in the photo. I kept asking, "Are you sleepy?" and she would answer, "No, mommy..." But look at her sleepy eyes in the picture. See pictures *here*
