Just after the Holy week of this year, I had a scheduled trip to Davao City. It wasn't the first time for me to take a plane ride alone but since I had an operation last January, so I was a bit worried. My aunt told me to bring just few clothes since I am still advised not to lift too much heavy things. So I had to check in my luggage which to my surprise only weighed 3.5 kilos :D

Anyway as soon as I arrived in Davao city, Tita Orett fetched me at the airport along with my other 2 aunts and uncle. My first two days, I just went around and explored the city. On Tuesday, we had to leave the house early to take a boat ride for our overnight stay in Isla Reta. The boat ride took about 45 minutes to an hour. Upon arriving at the island, I was mesmerized with the view of the clear blue sea water and unspoiled beach. It was like a paradise.





We spent most of our day at one of the picnic tables beside the beach, talking with my company and eating! We brought lots of food. I can't swim yet because of my surgical incision so I had no choice but just to chill on the sand, basking on the beautiful sea view. Imagine the temptation I had to go through of going to the water that time. As consolation, I just took lots of pictures with the beach as background.




When night time came, we sat by the sand on the beach and watched the moon rise. That time was like a dream come true for me, seeing the reflection of the moonlight on the water.
