We went Island Hopping with Nate and Airi on Wednesday. It was another blue sky and puffy white clouds day. When we boarded our Bangka boat in Maribago, it was low tide, so they brought in a smaller boat to get us out to the larger Bangka. Maribago, on Mactan Island, isn't far from JPark where I took some photos the other evening. There are over 7,600 islands in the Philippines, and we passed by some of them enroute to our first stop on Nalusuan Island. I wanted to go to Nalusuan because we visited that island 4 years ago, not long after it was hit by Typhoon Odette. The long deck that was completely destroyed by Odette has been replaced by an equally long concrete one, and a bunch of people were snorkeling at the end where you can see other Bangka boats anchored. I think I took about the same number of photos as the number of islands they have here :), so this will be #1 of this year's island hopping posts for us.
