My family and I are always planning for a trip every summer but since I reached high school they are too lazy to push through every plan that we made. After soo many years, last April 18-20, we had our summer vacation at Mindoro. Good thing that my Tito went home from UAE who lives in Mindoro and asked as to come over to their place. I grabbed the opportunity and asked my mom if we could go to Puerto Galera before going to their place. She agreed and asked me to look for a resort and to text my Tita and cousins to inform them about the plan. Since it's summer and it's the peak season for beaches, we had a hard time finding a resort, then, we decided that we'll just find a resort once we get to Puerto Galera.April 18 - We headed for the JAM bus station and met my Tita, cousin, and niece at around 5am. We missed the first trip of the bus from Manila to Batangas but we were able to rode the 2nd trip around 5:30am and reached Batangas Port at around 8:00am. We were supposed to ride the ferry boat at 8:10 but since there was a delay, we were able to ride the boat at 9:00. Arrived at White Beach, Puerto Galera pass 10am (my first time at Puerto Galera, Yey!). We did not find a hard time looking for a
place to stay because there was a lot of people offering different hotels and we ended up staying at White Beach Hotel. The place is fine for an overnight stay. The room is good for 5 people, air-conditioned room with cable TV. After fixing our things we ate lunch while we are waiting for my Tito, Tita and cousins coming from Pinamalayan. While we are playing at the shore with my niece and cousin, they (my Mom and company) decided to go snorkeling around 2pm, but before 
that, my cousins decided to have a henna tattoo. =) I got myself a dolphin henna =). Few hours after we headed for a snorkeling galore! Snorkeling with a boat pulling us. (haha) We went around Coral Garden and had an unlimited encounter of corals and fishes. =) After hours of snorkeling and feeding the fishes in Coral Garden, we went back to the resort to rest, have some snack with my cousins (my treat, got tired from the snorkeling activity, haha) and waited for the sunset at Puerto Galera (sooo nice!).We were also able to experience the night life at Puerto =) Walk around the beach to look for a restaurant to have dinner. My cousin want to have a dinner at the Floating restaurant but we decided not to because we might throw up because of the waves (haha).
April 19 - Last day at Puerto, since we only availed of an overnight stay. What would be the best way
to spend the last day at Puerto? Shopping Galore!!! =) We left Puerto Galera around 10:00am to travel from Puerto Galera to Pinamalayan, a 3 to 4 hours drive! Soo tiring! We also passed-by one of the tourists spots in Mindoro, the Tamaraw Falls. We had a stop over and had our picture taken. Also had some snack and the Banana Cue that we ate was the BEST! hahaha We reached my Tito's house at Pinamalayan around 1:00pm, soooo tiring!!! I got to bond with my cousins and niece by playing with them and Videoke! hahaha I feel like I'm a kid again =pApril 20 - Time to go home. Last day of my summer vacation at Mindoro. Until next summer! =D
