sorry that i haven't write for a while everyone. i have been busy lately, hanging out with my friends, playing catch up mostly since i haven't seen and talk to them for like ages. and also try to walk normally again. even though i can walk but i'm not fully healed again. but never the less, it feels great that i can finally go out and smells the fresh air. you know what i mean.
anyways, speaking of going out, today i wanna share with everyone some of the places which i know mostly all of them are islands, that i really want to go. most of them, okay, all of them are totally expensive places but i have to admit, all of them are very very beautiful places. sandy white beaches, beautiful architecture, nice people, extraordinary sceneries and so much more. alright, before i babble something stupid, i'm just gonna show you. so here we go.
HAWAII, USA
According to the Official Tourism Board of Hawaii, they said Hawaii is "The fresh, floral air energizes you. The warm, tranquil waters refresh you. The breathtaking, natural beauty renews you." see, even the slogan is very catchy. just look at the picture. it is so beautiful. i know the place has great beaches and beautiful scenery but there is more than meet the eyes. there are a lot of activities you can do here besides swimming and sunbathing. for example you can go visit Pearl Harbor, climb mountains to discover volcano crates at Maui's Haleakala Mountain, whale watching, attend luau dance, tour at active volcano at Kauai's Waimea Canyon, visit Diamond Head State Monument, swim with the dolphins at Dolphin Quest and/or sail and snorkel in Oahu. oh yeah, one more thing. great place to have a wedding too.
ST BARTH, CARIBBEAN
Ahhh.... the white sandy beaches and the blue ocean. it's so beautiful just to lie around and sip iced tea and relax. perfect. alright. just so you know, this island is owned by France. figures. the place looks good enough for lovers. anyways, just like in Hawaii, there are activities can be done either as a couple or families. here in St Barth you can go and visit the art gallery, horseback riding, go to festival which is whatever festival they are doing at that time, watch the motorboats show, visit museum, go sailing, snorkeling and/or diving, play tennis, watch watersports, go on tours and/or excursions or if you think all that are boring, you can just go and shop around. there are a lot of boutiques and most of them are very well knows and come to think about it, major expensive. hmm.... i don't think i'll be doing shopping there.
BRITISH VIRGIN ISLANDS, CARIBBEAN
looks beautiful isn't it? looks very peaceful. just what i need right now. well, since its name is British so yea you got it, this island is owned by the United Kingdom. just like the previous i have mentioned, if you got sick of the beach and you decided to do something else that does not involve bikinis and sun tan lotion, you can go visit the Dog Island which has some of the beautiful sites for scuba diving. or if you just want to sit and relax, you can always go for a spa and/or massage and/or yoga which is perfect for cleansing your body, mind and soul. or you can involve in sports and/or activities such as boating and sailing or you can try fishing and of course not forgetting surfing or you can visit parks where you can see lots of regional wildlife. other than that, you can do shopping or snorkel at the Treasure Point Caves, or scuba at Wreck Valley or scuba dive at Alice in Wonderland (yes, that is the name, for real), or if you are into cultural stuff, you can just go visit museums, historical buildings, or sightseeing by helicopter.
BORA BORA
bora bora.... my dream getaway. there is no better place to have a vacation than this place. total seclusion from the outside world. just surrounded by ocean and you can definitely relax and find peace. just like St Barth, this island is owned by the French and it is located at the Pacific Ocean. but just because this place is secluded from outside world, that doesn't mean you can't do anything here. there are a lot of activities you can do here such as snorkeling, shark and ray feeling, visit lagoonarium, take the Papeete Inner Island Jeep Safari Tour, cruising with the Moorea Sunset Cocktail Cruise, enjoy the Moorea Circle Island and Belvedere Lookout Tour or the Circle Islanf Le Truck Tour.
ST TROPEZ, FRANCE
yet again, this island belongs to the French. man, the French seems to have all the good island. i wonder why? hmm.... anyways, besides the beautiful beaches, great for sun bathing, and breathtaking scenery, you can do a lot of stuff here. activities such as hiking at the Sentier du Littoral aka Coastal Path, visits museums and historical buildings such as Citadelle Museum and Announciade Museum. you can have your breakfast - orange juice, croissant, bread with jam and butter plus coffee and hot chocolate - at Cafe Senequier which is a great place to watch the yachts getting ready to set sail. or you can just walk around shopping where at the end of July, they have a 50% off and sometimes 70% off. at the end of October in Braderie, they have a real bargain sale. if you still want to stay near the beach, you can involve in water sports like sailing, windsurfing and jet skiing. also you can go cycling too because cycling is one of the popular activities in this island.
MALDIVES
Maldives is also one of the places that i am craving to go actually. i've been thinking about going to this place for a while. besides the obvious reason to visit Maldives, it is also one of the best place to scuba dive and snorkeling. it has an amazing view down there. other than that, you can participate in other activities such as big game fishing to catch fishes such as marlin, tuna, and so many more. you can also visit the cultural centre at Dhangethi Island and see the local school, learn their architecture and crafts, and their foods. other than that, you can join fishing where at dawn, you can try fishing the Maldivian style using the hand-reel line. next, they have Island Hopping which consist of 3 islands where the first one is the place for sightseeing, the 2nd is the perfect place for snorkeling, sun bathing and picnic lunch and last island is to just relax and refresh and possibly for snorkeling again. moving on, you can play with the Spinner Dolphins. you can also join the snorkel safari to see so many animals such as turtles, sharks (eekkk!!!!) and manta ray. if you have so many ka-ching, you can always join the Sunser Cruise where you can watch the sun setting. and of course, where there is island, there is always yachts. so here too, you can rent a yachts to sail around Maldives and see its true beauty.
BAHAMAS, CARIBBEAN
wahhhhhh.............. im loving this place more and more now! i'm not sure if i can afford though but it does looks soooo.... appealing. just like other islands, activities such as snorkeling and scuba diving and you can watch the sharks, play with the dolphins, see all the shipwrecks. or you can also join the big game fishing where you can catch fishes like tuna, snapper, barracuda, and so many more. or you can involve in watersports like jet skiing, sea kayaking, parasailing, windsurfing, sailing and banana boating. if you enjoy sightseeing, there are a lot of places to visit such as the art galleries and monuments. if you want something more challenging, you can go to the national parks for hiking, horseback riding and bird watching. and if you want to try to earn some money, there is a casino nearby in Nassau and Freeport. oh, i forgot to mention, there are at least 700 islands in Bahamas. so, there are definitely many places to go.
PUERTO BANUS, SPAIN
Spain.... such a lovely place. here in Spain, if you are bored with swimming, you can turn your tail and go and visit the Plaza Antonio Banderas. yes.... Antonio Banderas the actor. this plaza is named in his honor because he was born there in Malaga. in this particular plaza, you will see a lot of market in tents selling clothes and souvenirs. also, you can rent the luxury yachts which can get as big as a ship or yachts is too much for you, you can just go and shopping at the luxury boutiques such as Prada, Armani, D&G, Jimmy Choo and so much more. if you don't have the money to rent or buy, you can just walk at the Boulevard where you can see the extremely expensive yachts and expensive cars such as Lamborghini, Porches and so much more parked. you can also visit the Statue of La Victoria or if you want to do some travelling, you can go to Gibraltar which is only a few hours drive. if you visiting the island in June, then you can watch the Flamenco Festival which involve the ladies wearing extremely sexy flamenco clothes, food and drinks all around the place. moving on, you can enjoy the sand carvings, street theater, visit the lovely tower at the harbor, and other statues all over the island.
CABO SAN LUCAS, MEXICO
