philipines planning
yea!yea! finally i managed to finish my high level itineraries for my philippines 2006 trip. a little worried about the banaue trip. most ppl plan for mnl-banaue-mnl but i was hoping to save some $$ and time by doing a mnl-banaue-angeles. this makes sense as i'll departing from philippines via crk/clark.
a high level of my itineraries :
day1 : arrive in crk. transfer to mnl. check out all the tours i've booked. walk around. spend a nite here
day2 : early morning flight to bohol. hopefully can check in early to hotel. 3d2n here. do a bohol country side tour.
day3 : do snorkelling/swimming/lazing @ pangloa island ...
day4 : depart bohol to cebu via ferry. tour cebu city. shopping? 2d1n
day5 : more shopping. take afternoon flight back to manila. walk around mnl.
day6 : depart early to los banos for 3d2n. day trip to pagsanjan - shoot the rapid thingy.
day7 : day trip to hiddenvalley @ alaminos until evening.
day8 : depart early to lake taal or tagaytay. awaiting confirmation for transportation?? 2d1n there.
day9 : depart for mnl. leisure @ mnl. take nite (10pm) bus to banaue. which is a 9 hours journey.
day10: reach banaue early morning. 3d2n. as i am still awaiting some info from various tours. not sure on this arrangements .. which is a little worrying ...
day11 : banaue
day12 : depart banaue for angeles (if there is a bus going there). reach angeles evening. rest.
day13 : day trip to either subic or mt pinatubo??
day14 : lepak in angeles? actually i got one day buffer just in case ... not sure i really want to spend so much time in angeles as it seems to be a girly place. maybe i will spend another 2 days in mnl after the banaue trip to enjoy the local culture?
day15 : depart for crk either from angeles or mnl. depart for home :)

pretty confusing. not sure whether is too demanding. a little worried cos going with mom. for me i can just either push myself or forgo something n lepak. i think it would be the latter...
