The More the Merrier, 2 Groups - Double the fun! (posted by Jo)

Sebastian, a German national, discovered our resort while searching on the web.  He decided to make a booking with his colleagues from work.  His group included another German, Toby along with Eliza, Anna, Basil and their officemate, Lorelyn with her husband Jaru.  Lorelyn and Jaru could not make it with the rest of their friends, so they chartered a small boat to come over in the evening and joined them.
Sebastian and his friends stayed for 3 days and 2 nights from Feb 6th to 9th.

Another group, Teng, Love, Belle and Kulas from Security Bank also booked for the same weekend.  Their friend, Bane came with them, but Bane could only stay one night as she had to return to take care of a patient.

Because we are in the tropics, sometimes it rains, but even though It rained a little  over the two days, happily they all enjoyed the time on Isla.  They found time to relax, sleep and enjoy each others' company But most of all they said they enjoyed the food we served to them.  They told us they felt pampered in our resort.

Lorelyn and her husband Jaru love swimming and snorkelling.   Teng with her group, also enjoyed snorkelling ïn Maliit na Nalayag. They didn't mind swimmiing in the rain.  Some of their group took the time to relax, reading, or sleeping on the chair near the sea while others found different things to do as this was a rare opportunity to unwind from the stress of work.

On Sunday, afternoon, they decided to have karaoke.   We were suprised when one of our German guests, Toby sang a duet with Eliza, singing the Tagalog song, "Torete",  with correct pronunciation.

They had a lot of fun singing. Sebastian and Toby, sang one of Britney Spears songs, and when Jaru asked them how do they wish to be called?, Sebastian replied that they are the "Spice Guys".


Teng's group joined and sang along with them too as Love sings the higher notes with her voice.  They ended around midnite after having fun singing with a few drinks.



The following morning the sun shone for them, and after breakfast, they had time to take a village tour.  They went to Sawang, and stayed there till noontime, swimming and snorkeling.  Even our dog  Fenjo joined them in the water.  The guests spoil Fenjo, as he keeps them entertained with his enthusiasm.  Anna decided to go back to the resort to chang her clothes, and Fenjo led the way for her and then led her back to Sawang again for swimming,  He did the same witb Sebastian, accompanying him on the way back to the resort. Fenjo is becoming our four legged tour guide!

They returned to the resort about noon, tired and hungry from all their activity.   After they took a bath they had lunch, then when they finished their lunch, everybody took their own rest.  Some went to sleep in their units,  some just stayed in the swing by the shore having coffee, while watching the sea and chatting with each other, and some chose to just relax and read a book.



Around sunset, they had their dinner and as it was their last day and it didn't rain, they set a bonfire.  The two groups of guests enjoyed their night together close to each other and when it was finished all went off to bed, as they needed to get up early to catch the dawn boat back to Tabangao for the return trip and back to their work.
