With the said wishing list, comes several itineraries that I direct maintain prepared ahead when the 24-hour interval comes. However those itineraries are designed for solo or for couples, making it partially useless for this trip. I was non expecting that I'd live going to Palawan amongst 5 other people.

The 6th fellow member of the grouping was my dad who was already inwards Palawan during that time. It was really him that arranged this household unit of measurement trip for us, perfectly timed for his birthday celebration.
