dive & trek, anilao, batangas

i should be finishing the quezon entries instead of writing this. but damnit, i'm tamad. and besides, life has over-taken me. which just means i'm slow and not that life is particularly fast-paced.

but but but anyway - WHEEEEE! my first dive weekend ever! 7 dives! :) i love the underwater world!!!! i saw turtles(well, more like a turtle, several times). i saw lots of parrotfish and clownfish and lionfish and and and...and the reef and the coral was just amazing! amazing! hahaha, i'm apparently also inarticulate. but well, the underwater world has that effect. i do believe if everyone went diving, people would be happier.

having heard so many stories about that place, i was totally unprepared for how beautiful Dive & Trek is. of course, what's below water eclipses what's above. but i'm thinking non-diving friends would enjoy it as much as divers would.

after parking in Lemery, boats take you to DnT. The trip takes less than 10 minutes, with a mountain of rock and green rising on your left. and of course, deep blue water stretching all the way out to your right.

DnT sprawls along an area fronting the sea. so all the rooms and their balconies- basic, clean and shared among friends or family - face the sunset. Again, amazing! a wound across the sky bidding us goodbye.

going home, we were trailed by bright sparks of white bioluminescence, as if the sea were saying "come visit again soon". (well, technically it's saying "stop disturbing us damn you!", but i'll take creative license)

maybe i'll tell you more about it once my infatuation's died down, i've had more sleep and i'm a bit less gushy than this. in the meantime, i'll go research about all the underwater creatures i met for the first time.
