Still in Boracay

If you're thinking that Bora is all about beach and party at night, then you are definitely wrong. Last summer they opened a theme park called Happy Dreamland.
It's not as big as the Enchanted Kingdom in Sta. Rosa Laguna, yet they do have some of the rides EK has. One of their rides is the ATV ride. It's part of the package we availed, check my post here. It's an hour ride going to a mini zoo and then all the way to their ocean tower.
Going to the tower you've got to go through hundred steps. Tiring yet worth the climb. Once at the tower you've got to see the entire view of the island. The magnificent view is undeniably breathtaking blending well with the  cool breeze,  ooohhh so refreshing!!! Looking at the island surrounded by an endless body of water made me appreciate more how amazing God's creation is. My camera didn't do any justice with my description of the view but trust me when I say it's breathtaking. It really is!!!!
I dont know how to drive a motorcycle yet I wanted to try ATV. I thought driving it is hard but after that very brief instruction,  I became an instant driver. Before you'll ride it there's a waiver you have to sign agreeing that you'll be driving at your own risk. Yeah, it's kinda risky because accident do happen especially when you're driving a local road where you get to encounter children playing in the  sidewalk, cars passing  and other ATV riders too plus those blind curves. But then there will be guides all throughout the ride, so somehow it's safe. As long as you pass the right way nothing could go wrong.
It was a very short trip to the famous island, yeah kinda "bitin" but if you  know how to squeeze time somehow you can still enjoy the things the island has to offer.

Haven't had enough of the island, so I'll be back tomorrow  with my other travel buddies. More on my second trip to Boracay in my coming posts.

  1. [...] drove all the way to the Ocean Tower which is not new to me too. (Went there last August riding ATV). I was not excited to go up to the tower coz I know passing those steps up and down is so tiring. [...]
