More of Batan

There was a shooting of a coffee commercial (the new Nescafe commercial you can now see on TV- that's how late I am posting my stories hehe) being shot at Sabtang and they rented all the available transportation in the island so we were not able to see the island. We went to tour the rest of the Batan island instead.

We rented a van and they brought us at the Fisherman's Village and hiked up our way to the Spring of youth. We rented Muning's cottage and she prepared our lunch while we trek our way to the spring.It was a 20-minute walk to the spring, up hill and down hill. Summer had no choice but to walk her way to the spring since I was already carrying Winter and Omar, due to his heart condition, cannot carry Summer to the spring.
We enjoyed the cool dip at the spring. We had it to ourselves. It was my first to swim with Winter. He had his first dip with my in-laws. He just loves the water.
Good thing on our way back, tide was low so we were able to walk along the shore - well, more of over the corals. Summer had her way this time, though. She asked one of the kuyas to carry her on her way back and they were so kind to accommodate her request.
We had sumptuous lunch at Muning's then went back to the hotel to rest. We had our dinner at Batanes Resort - a resort operated by the provincial government.
For our last day tomorrow, by hook or by crook, we have to see the island of Sabtang!
