El Nido!!!































































Have you ever been to a place you can honestly say is magnificently beautiful?  I have!  I am sure there are lots of places here on earth that can be described as such,  after all our world was originally created to be so.  However, to be able to experience such beauty firsthand is a totally enlightening experience.  It was in the islands of El Nido that I had this experience.  True beauty and serenity is emanating from the beautiful landscapes of the area.  Located in the northernmost tip of the province of Palawan, lies islands and islets made up of unique geological limestone formations comprising the province of El Nido.  It was such an adventure for me to go island hopping and snorkeling in the area.  The marine life was unbelievably rich.  My eyes feasted on corals and fishes of different shapes, colors and sizes.  Unfortunately,  I was not lucky enough to see a sea turtle of which I was really hoping to encounter.  Nevertheless,  the entire experience was totally amazing for me.  Staying in one of the modest resorts in the area, our room was facing the Bacuit Bay.  It was such a delight waking up with such a beautiful view...the bay dotted with its islands and islets.. and ending the day facing the sunset with a promise of another adventure for tomorrow.  I tried to capture the beauty of the place through my photos but i do not think i have done it any justice.  You have to be able experience the place to fully appreciate it's magnificence.  For now,  i hope these photos will wet your appetite to see El Nido and experience God's signature in this beautiful world!
