Boracay Revisited!

It was four years ago when I last visited the famous Boracay with the DDB people. I went to Boracay last summer with Reggie and his cousins. Things have changed on the island but so have I. I return not only as an Art Director, but also as the Artist Chef. :-)

Gazing at the beautiful sunset and glancing at some scenes that are still the same through the years. Then again, a lot of things changed for the worse. It's too crowded and the improper garbage disposal makes me sad.

With Carrone, Donna, Lorraine and yours truly, The Artist Chef.

Powdering myself with the soft and white Boracay's sand. I can't help but smile because of the new red Calvin Klein shades that replaced my old red eyeglasses.

I posed in this same spot at Waling-Waling Beach Hotel back in 2003.

We had fun eating at different restos in BORA like, Mango Ray restaurant, Hawaiian Barbecue, Gastof & Michel's Crepe. But I had so much fun with Manana and Cafe Mediterranean. I just love mexican and mediterranean food.

I'm glad that Cafe Mediterranean invaded Boracay already.

This photo was taken at Jonah's where Reggie and I ordered their famous shakes. After we finished the shakes Reggie fell asleep and then this butterfly landed on his shoulder. I immediately got the camera to capture the moment then Reggie woke up with this reaction...

I always see photos of couples in gettyimages and other stock photography sites with poses somehow similar to this. I just had to have my own version!

This is Reggie having skimboarding lessons with the very nice kiddo.

This is my photo opt with the local Boracay kid. Thank you kiddo for being nice and for patiently teaching me and Reggie the ways of skimboarding.

Nice to relax and take a nap in front of the beach ... 'til my next Boracay visit.
