Porto Fino

Finally, my most awaited DAY AT THE BEACH came true yesterday! It was the best day really, topped my birthday even! ^__^ And there were a lot of surprises, adrenaline-pumping moments and just plain serene time.

We went to Porto Fino Resort in Mactan, Cebu. The place is side-by-side known and *cough*high-end*cough* resorts but I instantly fell in love with the place. I think the resort didn't matter, I just longed for the sea and the sun. :)


The mother said we could try jetskiing! *insert spazzing here*
I was kind of unsure about it after I realized that
(1) I don't know how to swim and;
(2) There might be sharks out there. LOL.
But what the heck, the adrenaline was heightening and thus arguments were invalid anymore. :))

Driving the jet ski and accelerating against the waves is the MOST EXHILARATING experience to date.
I want to do it again!!

I had a personal task to create a panoramic shot of the place and VOILA!!
The manual photostitching was tedious but I loved the outcome! The sea and the sky was grand!

Yet after a very fun day, I accumulated painful sunburns all over my body. The slightest touch makes me cringe but I have to endure. OUCH! And also the siblings and I woke up today with an aching body. T__T The price one has to pay for a fun day at the beach. Haha.
