May 30:
We left at 4 am and arrived at Mauban at around 9am. We parked the vehicle at an old house (the owner of Villa Cleofas' ancestral house) while waiting for the 45-minute boat ride. We went crazy and played tayaan, took pictures, the works. Kulet talaga! Hayzel, a new friend even thought that we were just highschool graduates!
Ancestral hobbies
Tsk tsk, dala lang cguro ng gutom lahat ng kalokohang ito. After waiting for an hour for the boat (the crew of Tablescapes were early to shoot, so we have to wait for the return of our boat), the boat finally arrived. Finally! We were really hungry!

Chef Bruce of Tablescapes (Watch on Ch 23, Mondays 10pm)Cagbalete or "Cabalete" in some maps, is truly a rare jewel. It is home to a number of species of land animals and sea creatures. Kingfishers, parrots, eagles, and other uncommon birds can usually be seen flying over the area of the island. It is also the habitat of the coconut crab or “kuray” (the Cagbalete favorite), starfishes, “alimasag”, “umang”, etc., and a long time ago, the “pawikan” (giant sea turtle). For divers and snorkeling-fanatics, underwater exploration is a treat with the diverse and colorful marine life that can be discovered beneath the rocks and corals.
Words aren't enough to describe the beauty of the place and the fun we had, 1st day pa lang yan!! I'll post the 2nd day tomorrow, medyo gutom na e, hehe. Visit www.cagbalete.com for details. ☺
