The Philippines nosebridge (El Nido) — April 2015
12 April 1961 Soviet cosmonaut Yuri Gagarin on the spacecraft "Vostok-1" was launched from cosmodrome "Baikonur" and the world's first orbital committed circled the Earth. How symbolic that day to say (write) "let's Go!" when this day coincides with the first day of the holiday.
So there you go: because of the current economic situation, the availability of Japanese drift for Russian citizens has decreased significantly (i.e., a dream to go to Japan to Ebisu, buy the car there to drift was covered with a female genital organ), our journey will be called "the Philippines disabledskin".
Route: Moscow – Hong Kong – Manila – Puerto Princesa (island of Palawan) El Nido – Puerto Princesa – Cebu island town of Oslob (in any case, do not insert the letter "e") to Caticlan (Panay island) – the island of Boracay – Manila – Hong Kong – Moscow. A little about the difficulties in the preparation for the journey. A day trip to the Bank and subsequent purchase of tickets and booking of accommodation – in the morning I evacuated the car (minus 4.5 hours of personal time and 12 thousand rubles). A couple of weeks before departure from the airline Cebu Pacific came to the notice of the transfer time of departure from Manila to Puerto Princesa for 3.5 hours earlier than originally. Attempts to get an answer to a letter asking to rebook or call the above phone were not successful. To be safe, I had to buy other tickets for this flight at Philippine Airlines, but more expensive and no Luggage. And last: a week before departure Anna sends a link to the news that the Pacific originated by super Typhoon "of Masak" and moving to the Philippines. It is clear that by the time we arrived everyone was already quiet, but the point is this: if I didn't reschedule his vacation at the request of Anna for the week ahead, I'd be there during the Typhoon...
Poor Filipinos – first the Typhoon, now Karbivnik... all three of them )))
In my head "spinning" is only one word that describes the feeling on the first day — 3,1415926 Bonk. An hour in a taxi to the airport, at the airport in three hours. Ten-hour flight to Hong Kong, four hours to transplant two and a half hours to Manila, four hours for a transplant, an hour in the queue for take-off stood on the plane, half flew to Puerto Princess, the hour picked up the Luggage and was looking for a mini bus. The mini took the three little torgovavshis. The road is hard, night, fog, the hills, the road is very winding in places without asphalt under the wheels climb monkeys and dogs. Drove 6 hours to the hotel in El Nido. We must pay tribute to vodatel — drive carefully and do not risk the whole way clocked on the wheel only one dog. Tired, going — look at the guys, Chet depressed. Think to myself: "who the fuck ever came up with to go here?". And so it is just me. Arrived. Hotel right on the beach was full of sludge. It seems to me that even in the dormitory I lived more comfortably (at least to sit on the crystal throne, I did not have at an angle of 45' with respect to the axis of the product). Arrived in the morning, went to bed. In two hours the night began crowing roosters. Crow. Cocks. Blah, Philippine Paradise, just a dream. Morning. Sitting in a delicious cafe on the beach, delicious food and alcohol began to form a good mood, at least its beginnings.

So: in a bad mood vanished under the influence of freshly squeezed juice with local rum and beer San Miguel. We are in El Nido is a resort town in the province of Palawan and 238 km North-East of the administrative capital of the island Puerto Princesa. El Nido, which translated from Spanish means "refuge, shelter, nest", located on the northernmost tip of the island of Palawan. From the North it is washed by the Strait Linapacan, to the East is the Sulu sea, and the West – the South China sea. The resort city consists of 45 large and small Islands, each of which is notable for its structure and nature. The highest point of El Nido, located on the island of Cadlao peak stands at 640 meters above sea level.
Time cigars, rum and live music. Andreitch wants Russian songs, but this is not tai and Pechenegs Russian songs do not play. I remember Tyurin in Tae booze under the "star called sun", and there just is not any heart Russian bourgeois tracks. And in General, us — Russian there are only three ))))

Thoroughbred cabitto was just lying on the road...
Enrolled in a spectacular (for reviews awd) on tour With, and its because of the strong waves overturned. Agreed on the tour A. Well, XS. Go. The sea is restless. Wave. Really big waves. Go. At the moment swimming is us Philippine tour guide and asks:"you from where?" we answer:"we from Russia", he said,"okay, big" and makes a gesture with his hands, said:"there was one Russian jumped from the highest point in El Nido with a cry — "I'm Russian and I don't care"" but we have a divided opinion (due to difficulties of translation) — maybe he fell on rocks and blood from the hand of all flooded felts his arm amputated. Fire — after the Russian himself had no reputation even then...
Had a busy day. Burned. When riding on a boat during excursions on the lagoons, the sea was a strong wave of thought will collapse. The pilot (skipper) of the boat was similar to johnny Depp. And the Asian johnny Depp is really cool led ship, and when drisch assistant was unable to pull the anchor, without further ADO, he dived and snagged the anchor himself, then climbed on the boat and as if nothing had happened — continued to steer the boat.
Our Luser ))
Pleased to supper and to bed. Morning rise at 5:00, go out with things, and mini bus no. There is a slight anxiety that I will miss the flight. Called. Vodatel in the way. Was late for 15 minutes. But we still were glad to see him, because the prospect of Riding for 6 hours on the tricycle — no one smiled. At a roadside cafe and bought a snowcone. To suck on for Breakfast. Local sosisony and weather-beaten eggs did not inspire confidence. I got a snowcone with marmalade. A strange feeling. Very.
Getting from El Nido to Puerto Princesa 6 hours on the mini bus. Vodatel the same. After a successful road left him "cheese" ( another story — annealing A.), and he 2 hours later wrote us a SMS that we was great, ahaha. At the airport full of the farm, had to fit 4 hours. Flew the same airline Cebu Pacific, which employees (conceived with a finger) suffered a us flight from Manila to Puerto Princesa and we had to buy more tickets for this flight. Flew an hour. In the clouds a couple of times and shook — I was ready (like a paratrooper) to bite the wire but nothing happened.
Experience El Nido: the place is cool, untouched (nazarana) tourists nature, unique bays and coves, clear water and white sand, beautiful island, but once to get from Moscow hard. The idea is you need to take a hotel in Hong Kong or Manila, but two weeks is very little that all the time — I had to go without stops (more than 30 hours). In my opinion, the island of Palawan developed worse (in terms of infrastructure) than Boracay — but (apparently) over here and ride tourists.
Verdict: recommended to visit.
to be continued...
Well, here again, kalorik read again and the mood rises!)) Question if not a secret how much cost the trip one (karbiwnyk)? Thank you in advance!)
Hey, yeah well, the trip :) Palawan is such a thing :) definitely rocks Boracay in many ways. Zhdems continue, I wonder now your vision Boracay )
Yes, they do not care how much you fire water out, they're all good. From Ty when he was only gaining popularity 100 pipers took out the drawers. No one said anything. But our customs do not care if it was)))))
From Fiji 3 years ago with his wife, too, a box of rum dragged, so we at the airport in special containers offered that would not be broken. Although the rules no more than 2 litres on the nose;)
Yes, it is written that you can take out about 1 liter for 1 person, I carried almost 3 liters of don Papa one) brother and his wife do the same ))) San Miguel taxis)
Oooo! I still have a t-shirt with a San Miguel house dangles =))) and three years ago we brought home with Phil 20 liters of rum for three, three customs not consumed still don't understand =))

nifiga "in disabledskin"...
All right, the main amount of this back and forth.
130 — 50 flights = 80 — 8перелетов = thousand 35 food housing
Akhiron
Okay.
We have his wife in that year, this route was + whale sharks.
The budget for two = flights + food, beer, Scutari, ferries, 110 thousand in all.
And you what ?
And action camera Sony campaign.
Cheap to get))
Sharks is something that you've done a lot of pictures and videos but all are too lazy to do the film.
only housing) free food, booze, and gifts to friends ) I agree about the madness )))
Most likely. Food and housing. And most likely the movement on the Islands, we actuaily, scooter + we had no Luggage, IN it is basic. If you do not have Luggage the airline tickets for less .
In General nice to look at those places where he was. Well, to understand that you're not the only one insane.
we have 21 days 8 flights + ferry 110 , but I have a "handicap" --- Jack doesn't drink.
we also had sharks ) I got married 2 weeks — 8 flights and accommodation in 130 K)

"Niasilil" text — so how much in total did it cost to ride?
Super! Two years in a row with his wife in a Pattaya go... Very much. I want this year, natives, catch Vietnam, Hong Kong, Thailand and Cambodia. For the money it should look like just from Pegasus to Pattaya to drive...
I, too, was always there, with an overnight stay in Manila. Sea, sand, beaches, sunsets and sunrises super. The hotel took from 10tr per day, so roosters were not)))
