We slept early the night before by 10pm we're lights off already.
We woke up like 4am because the (again) only trip going back to Sta. Fe will
leave Hambil by 6am. We went outside first before leaving to witness a
beautiful sunrise.
Did you know that you can get to Carabao island via Caticlan? Yes.
Just check the schedule. Carabao Island is just a boat away from the island of
Boracay and Carabao Island is such a gem and it was hiding behind the fame of
Boracay. Some even called it the twin of Boracay. The sand is even powdery than
Boracay. I love the feeling of it on my feet and I'm missing it so bad
now.

So we left Hambil at 6am and we get in Sta. Fe by 7am. The jeepney
going to Odiongan was already full when we get there. We have a choice to be on
top of the jeepney but it is already full and another choice is motorcycle but
since we are five it will be expensive and another 2 hours of travel without
breakfast is bad news so we tried to walk towards Sta. Fe and there's another
jeepney that is supposed to leave by 9am. We decided to eat first at some
eatery that's already open.
It was on a beach side so it wasn't boring to wait. There are kids who are swimming and the clouds is so amazing.
We were back in Odiongan before 11am and we went to Tita's office
and it was embarrassing since we are not presentable. Haha. What would you
expect after a 2 hours travel. We can stay a bit longer on Hambil but we were
about to attend a birthday party in the afternoon that's why we get back
immediately. Gem advice me to bring pants which is very unusual for me to bring
because I'm usually a short girl when traveling and I wasn't able to bring the
pants in Hambil. Gem texted her mom to get my pants underneath my bag but she
got another shorts. Haha. Epic fail but good thing she was able to get me
another shirt because what was left on my bag was not presentable for a
birthday party. Lol.
As we are not as good as you expect us to be, Tita asked around on where we can take a bath before we eat lunch and we went to a house nearby where we took a bath. It will take time if we will go back to San Andres and go back in town for the birthday. So thankful to people who are welcoming other people to their home just to take a bath. Hehe. Their hospitality makes me amazed. (Thank you!)
We went back to the office at almost 1am for lunch and look around
for some eatery apparently the one where we were supposed to eat just have only
4 rice left. Gem and I bought chicken at a fast-food and it took us a while so
they already ate without us since Tita needs to get back at the office. We look
for rice at the other eatery but no rice left and we are nearly pissed like
seriously no rice? Haha. We can still survive so the office offered to cook some
rice but they cook too much for Gem and I. Haha. They served us like almost 4
cups of rice. Haha and guess what, we cleared the plate. Haha (too bad no
before and after photo because of hunger). Then we sleep at a quarter. We sleep
everywhere during this trip. Well, we do a lot of things everywhere. Haha
We were called at 5pm to leave for the birthday. We just ate and
stayed only a few minutes at the birthday but we walked in the street after and
waited for our ride going back to San Andres.
Riding on a motorcycle from Odiongan to San Andres is such an
experience. Almost 30 minutes and mostly no street lights and it's either going
uphill or downhill with just an open field on the side. Much to appreciate life
and NO TRAFFIC maybe the best to experience when we all have it here in the
metro and that's one of my favorite thing in Romblon.
