hi! thanks for this very helpful information... :)
ReplyDeleteplanning to celebrate my birthday sa Boracay (January 07, 2012)... I have one-way ticket only (Manila-Caticlan - January 05 via Cebu Pac)... waiting ako ng promo para sa pabalik... but it seems na wala na talaga... then, sabi ko next year ko na lang ituloy 'yung plan ko... but buti na lang follower mo ako kaya, tuloy na plan ko! :) bale 'yung pabalik na na lang 'yung gagawin ko... konting research pa! =) and kailangang i-master ko ang way pabalik (baka kasi maligaw ako)...
by the way, may contact# ka ba ng forest hill resort? nag-google kasi ako but wala ako makitang website nila... wala pa din kasi accommodation...
haizt... go na talaga ito! :) magandang simula for 2012...
thanks thanks again... ^_^
@Annetotz; 1st and foremost po, di nakakaligaw yung way back and forth, as in andyan agad ang mga sasakyan ... wala po ako contact nila eh, as my usual thing, palaging walk-in inquiry lang ako ...
Deletehow to go to forest hill resort ..
ask tricycle driver to bring you to forest hill resort w/c is at the back of the church, station 1 plaza ... all of the locals knows this...
fare is only php25 per person.... thanks for reading po ^_^
galing ng IT mo super tipid..subukan ko din mag landtrip lang from Cebu. Happy New Year
ReplyDeleteAlone? Wow.. gusto ko rin yan.. And I'm wanting to see Boracay this 2012! Happy new year po! ^_^
