kengkoy moments.....
1. Sitting at the boat for 6 hours was very exhausted, try to hire an
Airplane for they have a runway at the island.
2. Since it was a fishing boat, expect that the smell of the fish will
be your smell to,,( ayoko tlga nito.)
3. You are not comfortable int the boat because you are sitting in
a wood which is part of the boat with no back rest. (sandalan)
4. Pick friends with unlimited stories to join you. you will not survive the trip without this.
5. dont tell stories telling sinking ships, the locals will kill you.
From the moment you will arrived at the island everything will be glorious...
