El Nido - Apulit 3

Meals at Apulit were wonderful! There was so much food and such tasty food too! I had prawns every meal almost and there was a chocolate fountain each meal too! Each night over the weekend we were at Apulit, a wonderful group of musicians and dancers from the university entertained us with traditional Filipino music. It was really interesting to watch and listen to!

 Two of the evenings, supper was moved to the beach. This was truly an amazing experience, to eat your dinner feeling the sand warming your feet with heat it absorbed during the day, and hearing the sea lapping at the shore! The one night, the generator was shut down for an hour to take part in earth hour. It was inexplicable how quiet and beautiful that evening was. We headed for the pool. It was soooo warm and the island was bathed in a full moon...beautiful!

The staff were wonderful at the resort! Again, nothing was too much trouble. They really spoiled us and took care of us.

And of course, no Apulit update would be complete without more sunset pics :-)

Feeding the fish in the morning at the pier, was a highlight each day. There were three eels that lived in the rocks below the pier.

The fish completely swarmed when they were fed. And some were very possessive of their territory :-) One little silver guy really had a go at me, when I tried to hold on to one of the rocks.

More underwater shots to follow in the next update!
