Boracay Open 2010

March 11-15, 2010
Boracay Island, Philippines

Bok played in the Boracay Open, and his team (Toda the Flying Sprockets) won 3rd place! A great achievement indeed, considering their first 2 games on Day 1 were not so great. But they made it, 3rd place in Pool A! First and second place went to the Boracay teams -- Boracay Dragons/Bora A and Boracay B.

As usual almost all of the pictures here are of Zoe. Read her blog too.

Some highlights:

• watching the Pacquiao fight at Hey Jude bar. Really different vibe when you're watching a boxing match with lots of people rooting for the same person.


• romantic seafood dinner at Balinghai Resort. Medyo malayo sya ha. Bok told me not to raise my expectations too much. Hehe. It was really sweet. Thank you B!


• beer in the ocean while watching the sunset


• cocktails by the beach while watching the sunset


• great sunsets


• never-ending Playhouse Disney. Yes, may Playhouse Disney sa Boracay


• Zoe walking by herself in the ocean.


• Zoe's sand toys


• Zoe's sand pail, which also doubled as a "tabo" for giving Zoe a bath. Takot kasi si Zoe sa shower. I am so taking this one to the next beach outing!


• buggy ride around part of the island


• Zoe falling asleep a few minutes after sitting in the buggy


• Eating at Hungry Monkey and talking to the owner's parents. They live in QC but also go to Bora to kiteboard


• Asking the jeep driver how much it would cost to rent a kiteboard, and being told, "ay, sobrang mahal nyan." It turns out, it costs around 17-19K to learn, and that still excludes buying the equipment.

Overall mood: Thankful.
