We flew in Friday night and it was a super cute town. It is the capital of Palawan and my favorite part of the city was the cute lights they hung from the trees all over town. The city is bigger don't get me wrong though. There is a mall and stuff. We saw two movies while we were there. The third divergent and a Christian movie Sunday night called Miracles from Heaven maybe? It made me cry of course. Wasn't a fan of the divergent movie. Sorry Liz. One of my favorite parts of the whole week was riding on the back of Brads dirtbike. Sorry mom. And Andrew. Don't worry, I didn't even hold on to him and it definitely wasn't as cool as the motorcycle. But I did kind of feel like Lizzie McGuire all week. On Saturday to get to the underground river we drove the motorcycles which was like two hours. It was so beautiful! I loved it! I couldn't listen to music or books like everyone else but it was such a fun time to just think and look around. This place is kind of like Hawaii but third world and even prettier! The underground river was cool. One of the new seven wonders of the world I think. It is basically seeing a cave in a boat. With bats everywhere. They have to close around five because there are so many bats coming in and out. Oh we stayed at a place called Nelly's Nipa hut off air bnb and it was actually pretty fun. The host Jessica was awesome. It was a fun city! Sunday we went to church, drove around, and went to visit Bennie's, one of the mentors, family. They fed us SO much mango shake. His niece plays tennis and is apparently pretty good which means they must be doing alright. She is super cute. That night something was messed up with the bookings and we stayed in this other hostel which was awesome. We slept in a bamboo hut. The next night we woke up bright and early and headed to El Nido. A 6 hour bus ride everyone needs to make in their life!
