Tady pan ceněný zaměstnanec se naučil, že když si říká o hraní hrubě a my ho ignorujeme, odejde a spořádaně se vrátí s hrajátkem, které nám položí do klína.
Onehdy jsem ovšem měla plné ruce, takže ani když si řekl takto hezky a vychovaně, nemohla jsem si to hrajátko vzít.
Co proběhlo ve štěněcí hlavě: Podnět - Hrajátko!!! → Problém -Hrajátko zamítnuto?! → Konkluze - Hrajátko nelíbí! → Řešení - Hrajátko, líbí???????
a odklusal
a vrátil se s tlamičkou nacpanou třemi různými hrajátky
a ty mi všechny hodil do klína
a pak si sednul a strašně napjatě čekal, který si vyberu.
Snažim se jen říct, že bulim a toho psa miluju. ♥
On mi dal MOŽNOSTI :((((( 😭 💔💔💔💔💔

You don’t need to justify who you love, what you love doing or why you love them. You just do it.
You have your own choices to make in this world so you don’t need to explain why you choose to prioritize the things you love.
It���s really all about whatever pleases you and the people you love to please. This is absolute.

Oh wow, it took me almost three months to write this second part, and I’m not sure if the things I’m going to write here are accurate. I have a terrible memory and I am also a lazy bum, so this entry will be short.
Nov 25, Friday – We rented a scooter and went to Nacpan Beach. It was around a 45-minute to an hour’s drive from the town proper. It has a long stretch of shoreline with soft golden sand, crystal-clear water, and a long line of palm trees on the side. It was not crowded when we got there, so it was really nice. We stayed there for about 3 hours and decided to return to our Airbnb since the weather was really unpredictable. It actually started to rain when we were halfway back. I must say that the ride home was one for the books.
We went to eat at Cafe Athena after we freshened up. They served Greek and Mediterranean food. It was okay. Food lacks flavor, and it was pretty expensive. Most probably won’t go back. Anyhoo, we also drove around the area still using the scooter we rented for the whole day. We couldn’t find any souvenir or specialty shops around, but we were glad we were able to buy some sweet treats for our family and friends the next day at Puerto Princesa International Airport.
Nov 26, Saturday – Flight back home! The whole day was spent traveling to and fro.
It was a short trip. We couldn’t squeeze in other activities or destinations like the underground river without feeling exhausted. So yuuuuup. Will surely come back! I can’t wait to visit more places in Palawan.

Nach der 5h Fähre sind wir sicher in El Nido angekommen. Dort haben wir dann 5 Nächte in einem Air BnB etwas außerhalb der Stadt verbracht. Wir sind mit dem Roller zu einem einsamen Strand gefahren und haben dort nur mit ein paar Hunden und ab und zu Einheimischen die Stille genossen. Für den Sonnenuntergang sind wir zum Nacpan Beach gefahren. Auch dort waren nicht viele Leute und man konnte richtig entspannen.

As the day draws to a close, there's no better way to cap off a first-timer's visit to El Nido than by witnessing its legendary sunsets. Whether you choose to watch from the comfort of a beachfront bar or aboard a sunset cruise, the sight of the sun dipping below the horizon, painting the sky with hues of gold and crimson, is a moment of pure magic. As the last rays of sunlight dance across the waves, one can't help but feel a profound sense of gratitude for having experienced the beauty of El Nido in all its glory.
One of the quintessential experiences in El Nido is embarking on an island-hopping adventure. With numerous tour operators offering tailor-made excursions, first-time visitors can easily explore the region's most renowned landmarks such as the Big Lagoon, Small Lagoon, Secret Lagoon, and Shimizu Island. Each stop along the journey unveils a new facet of El Nido's beauty, whether it's snorkeling amidst vibrant coral reefs, kayaking through hidden coves, or simply basking in the sun on secluded beaches. As I set foot on the powdery white sands of Nacpan Beach, I was immediately captivated by the sheer magnificence of my surroundings. Stretching as far as the eye could see, the azure waters of the sea melted seamlessly into the cerulean sky, forming a breathtaking panorama of unparalleled beauty. Towering coconut palms swayed gently in the ocean breeze, casting dappled shadows upon the sand. It was a scene straight out of a postcard, a vision of paradise realized.
my first visit to El Nido, Palawan, was a transformative experience that left an indelible mark on my soul. Through the pristine beauty of its landscapes and the boundless wonders of its seas, I discovered a profound connection to the natural world and a renewed sense of wonder and appreciation for the miracles of creation. As I bid farewell to this enchanting paradise, I carry with me memories that will forever serve as a reminder of the beauty and majesty that exists within our world. AND I WOULD SAY THAT I WANT TO BACK AGAIN AND AGAIN BEACAUSE OF THE BEAUTY AND THE HEAVENLY VIEW!.

Alpha guys in the locker rooms are often very funny. You don't have much time to laugh to their jokes, since you usually have your mouth stuffed with their socks already.

Nacpan Beach, El Nido, Philippines
Nacpan Beach, El Nido, Philippines
    In this episode, the FAQ is: How should I celebrate my birthday when on a trip?
.
Today’s Destination is El Nido, Philippines, Part 1, Nacpan Beach
Today’s Mistake- Getting a bug in my ear
Travel Advice: Renew that passport
  FAQ:  How should I celebrate my birthday when on a trip?
  Answer: Happy Birthday. It would be best if you undoubtedly celebrated it, especially when you are traveling. Make sure you have plenty of drinks for free that day, from a 7-11 Slurpee to a Peet’s Coffee, Jamba Juice, and a shake from Sonic, Del Taco, and Arby’s. It’s a great day to eat at Denny’s, for the Grand Slam is free, too. The notes list lots of freebies for you, so celebrate the festivities solo or with friends.
  https://www.rd.com/list/freebies-on-your-birthday/
    Today’s destination: Nacpan Beach, El Nido, Philippines
  El Nido is a Philippine municipality on Palawan Island. It’s known for its white-sand beaches and coral reefs and as the gateway to the Bacuit archipelago, a group of islands with cliffs.
  One of those beaches was Nacpan. I  took a ride from Mark on a trike. I brought snorkeling gear and spent the day swimming, lounging, and relaxing. Listen in a few minutes to hear my mistake about an ant.
  The beach is well maintained and tourist-friendly, without being too commercial. There are resorts on the water and a restaurant/bar with decent food. They also have plenty of filtered, free drinking water for those who need hydration. The free showers are accessible to all, and the restrooms are clean. For all of this, there was a small entrance fee. In addition, we paid about $10. US to use a chaise lounge all day, which was acceptable for convenience and shaded.
I took several long walks along the beach, which was too hot to walk barefoot on the sand, except by the water. The waves were calm. The water was shallow and clear. It was ideal for a relaxing day at the beach.
    Today’s Mistake-Getting a bug in my ear
  While relaxing on a chaise lounge at Nacpan Beach, I enjoyed the shade of a tree and the chance to rest and doze a bit. Then, all of a sudden, I woke to a real scare. Something was in my ear, and I could not get it out. I’ve never felt this before, and it was a big deal. I was alone, and I got up and spoke loudly, so when I asked a stranger for help to look in my ear, he was patient and kind and said, It’s only an ant, and removed it. That was traumatic for just a few minutes, but I guess it happens often. I hope this never happens to you, but if it does, don’t worry. The ant does not want to be there, either.
    Today’s Travel Advice-Renew that passport
  Check your passport expiration date: If you have less than six months left, get it renewed now. Many countries will not allow you entrance, and it is best to get it done before you forget.

Chill at Nacpan Beach
Tumblr media
Deserted golden sand, clear blue waters, and a surreal view of the ocean await you at Nacpan Beach. Just the thought of lounging under the sun in this paradise makes you wish for that dreamy escapade. It's why joining an inland trip in Nacpan Beach is worth the wait.
The 45 minutes to 1-hour drive from the El Nido town proper is well worth it once you set foot in this slice of heaven. Read a book, listen to music, or watch the waves kiss the shoreline as you take in the beauty that Nacpan Beach has to offer. Local and foreign tourists rave about the 4-km long Nacpan Beach in El Nido because of the laid-back vibe here.
Nacpan Beach is part of the Twin Beaches with the adjacent Calitang Beach. You can climb up to the highest point and see the view of the two beaches. If you're trying out Nacpan Beach tours, buy some drinks or snacks in the beach bar as you work on your tan. The sunset in Nacpan Beach is also a must-see, the cherry on top for a perfect tropical getaway in El Nido, Palawan.
Marvel at the Beauty of Big Lagoon
Tumblr media
This majestic lagoon in Miniloc Island looks like a scene straight from a destination movie. It's like you're transported to a different dimension where you're surrounded by towering cliffs lined up to watch over you. It is one of the highlights of an El Nido Big Lagoon Private Tour.
Tumblr media
As you enter through the Big Lagoon, everything is a sight to behold – the crystal-clear blue water, the ray of light peeking through the top of the cliffs, and the luscious limestone formation. It has become famous for being featured in several movies and postcards because of its beauty, as seen from drone shots to kayak views.
Tumblr media
Due to the local government's efforts to keep the pristine condition of El Nido islands and avoid overcrowding, island-hopping boats are not allowed to go inside of the Big Lagoon anymore. The time spent and the number of tourists is also strictly controlled.
Tumblr media
Tourists, however, can board kayaks and paddle their way through the shallow entrance that will lead to a giant natural pool with turquoise waters surrounded by towering limestone cliffs.
Kayak in Small Lagoon
Tumblr media
Another Miniloc Island destination is the famous Small Lagoon. As the name implies, it is relatively smaller compared to the Big Lagoon, but can't be discounted when it comes to the beauty and charm it exudes.
Unlike the Big Lagoon where the opening can be easily entered, the Small Lagoon has a smaller entrance. You can swim or ride a kayak and go through a crack on a limestone wall to get inside during your Small Lagoon tour.
Once you’re inside, you can take a dip or kayak around the peaceful waters of Small Lagoon and enjoy its calm surroundings with the sound of nature as your default soundtrack. Its serene turquoise waters that make up a natural pool in the middle of cliffs are the perfect spot for floating or kayak rides.
Similar to the policies implemented in Big Lagoon, the number of tourists and time spent in Small Lagoon has limitations as well to keep its enchanting vibe.
Do you enjoy reading my blog? So now you have another learning's that's great I'm hoping for your support guys see you for my next blog!

#NATURE ESSAY
"TREASURE" 
The Philippines is a country located in Southeast Asia that boasts a wealth of natural beauty. It is an archipelago of 7,107 islands surrounded by pristine blue waters teeming with marine life. The country's beaches and natural landscapes are among the best in the world, attracting millions of tourists each year. From crystal-clear waters, powdery white sand, lush forests, cascading waterfalls, and majestic mountains, the Philippines has it all.  
              One of the most beautiful and iconic places in the Philippines are its beaches. The country has a coastline of over 36,000 kilometers, with a variety of beaches ranging from secluded coves to busy beach resorts. Each beach in the Philippines has its own unique character and beauty. Some of the most popular beaches are found on the islands of Boracay, Palawan, and Siargao.   Boracay is a small island located in the Western Visayas region of the Philippines. It was voted the world's best island in A2012 and is known for its powdery white beaches and crystal-clear waters. The island's main beach is White Beach, a 4-kilometer stretch of powdery sand that is perfect for swimming, sunbathing, and water activities such as parasailing and banana boat rides.
             The island is also home to other beautiful beaches such as Puka Beach, Diniwid Beach, and Bulabog Beach, which are less crowded and offer a more secluded atmosphere.   Palawan is another popular destination in the Philippines known for its stunning beaches and natural wonders. The island has two UNESCO World Heritage Sites: the Puerto Princesa Subterranean River National Park and the Tubbataha Reef Marine Park. Palawan has pristine beaches such as Nacpan Beach, a 4-kilometer stretch of powdery white sand that boasts clear turquoise waters. The beach is perfect for swimming and sunbathing and offers an excellent view of the sunrise and sunset.
             Other notable beaches in Palawan include El Nido's Seven Commando Beach and Coron's Malcapuya Island.   Siargao is a hidden gem in the Philippines that is slowly gaining recognition for its beautiful beaches and world-class surfing spots. The island is located in the province of Surigao del Norte and is known for its Cloud 9 waves, one of the best surfing spots in the world. The island has numerous beaches, such as Daku Island, Naked Island, and Guyam Island, which offer a more quiet and secluded atmosphere.   Aside from the country's beautiful beaches, the Philippines also has a wealth of natural attractions that are worth exploring. The country has a diverse landscape of mountains, forests, and waterfalls that offer a different kind of adventure to visitors. Some of the popular nature destinations in the Philippines are the Banaue Rice Terraces, Mount Pulag, Mayon Volcano, and Pagsanjan Falls.  
                 The Banaue Rice Terraces are a man-made wonder that is often referred to as the Eighth Wonder of the World. It is located in the Cordillera mountain range and is made up of thousands of terraced rice paddies that have been carved into the mountainside. The rice terraces are 2,000 years old and are still being used by the locals to grow rice.   Mount Pulag is the third-highest mountain in the Philippines and is located in the northern part of Luzon Island. The mountain is surrounded by a virgin forest that is home to various plant and animal species.
               The summit of Mount Pulag offers a stunning view of the sunrise and the sea of clouds, making it a popular hiking destination in the country.   The Mayon Volcano is an active volcano located in the province of Albay in the Bicol region. It is known for its near-perfect cone shape and is considered one of the most active volcanoes in the Philippines.

Visitors can ride a canoe or bamboo raft to reach the falls and experience the thrill of going through the rapids. The falls offer a beautiful view of the surrounding forest, and the cool water is perfect for swimming.  
            In conclusion, the Philippines is a country blessed with natural beauty that is unmatched by any other. Its beaches, mountains, and waterfalls are among the most stunning in the world and offer a different kind of adventure to visitors. The country's natural wonders are a testament to its rich cultural heritage and diverse ecosystem, making it a must-visit destination for anyone who loves nature.

TOURIST SPOT IN EL NIDO PALAWAN
1.) Marvel at the Beauty of Big Lagoon
Tumblr media
This majestic lagoon in Miniloc Island looks like a scene straight from a destination movie. It's like you're transported to a different dimension where you're surrounded by towering cliffs lined up to watch over you. It is one of the highlights of an El Nido Big Lagoon Private Tour.
As you enter through the Big Lagoon, everything is a sight to behold – the crystal-clear blue water, the ray of light peeking through the top of the cliffs, and the luscious limestone formation. It has become famous for being featured in several movies and postcards because of its beauty, as seen from drone shots to kayak views.
2.)Chill at Nacpan Beach
Tumblr media
Deserted golden sand, clear blue waters, and a surreal view of the ocean await you at Nacpan Beach. Just the thought of lounging under the sun in this paradise makes you wish for that dreamy escapade. It's why joining an inland trip in Nacpan Beach is worth the wait. 
The 45 minutes to 1-hour drive from the El Nido town proper is well worth it once you set foot in this slice of heaven. Read a book, listen to music, or watch the waves kiss the shoreline as you take in the beauty that Nacpan Beach has to offer. Local and foreign tourists rave about the 4-km long Nacpan Beach in El Nido because of the laid-back vibe here. 
Nacpan Beach is part of the Twin Beaches with the adjacent Calitang Beach. You can climb up to the highest point and see the view of the two beaches. If you're trying out Nacpan Beach tours, buy some drinks or snacks in the beach bar as you work on your tan. The sunset in Nacpan Beach is also a must-see, the cherry on top for a perfect tropical getaway in El Nido, Palawan.
3.)Kayak in Small Lagoon 
Tumblr media
Another Miniloc Island destination is the famous Small Lagoon. As the name implies, it is relatively smaller compared to the Big Lagoon, but can't be discounted when it comes to the beauty and charm it exudes.
Unlike the Big Lagoon where the opening can be easily entered, the Small Lagoon has a smaller entrance. You can swim or ride a kayak and go through a crack on a limestone wall to get inside during your Small Lagoon tour.
Once you’re inside, you can take a dip or kayak around the peaceful waters of Small Lagoon and enjoy its calm surroundings with the sound of nature as your default soundtrack. Its serene turquoise waters that make up a natural pool in the middle of cliffs are the perfect spot for floating or kayak rides.
Similar to the policies implemented in Big Lagoon, the number of tourists and time spent in Small Lagoon has limitations as well to keep its enchanting vibe. 
4.)Dip in the Secret Lagoon 
Tumblr media
This unique natural pool in El Nido's Miniloc Island is also known as the Hidden Lagoon. This popular El Nido Big Lagoon has a sweet surprise that awaits you once you enter a small opening on the majestic limestone cliffs.
When getting here, your boat will make its way to a small white sand beach in the southern part of Miniloc Island. You'll pass through a hollow rocky cave-like opening so be extra careful and dock your head. You can easily wade into the opening if it's low tide.
Once inside, you'll be greeted by a small natural pool surrounded by remarkably high limestone cliffs –  this is the Secret Lagoon.
You can dip in the natural cold pool and bury your toes in its beautiful white sand. Unlike the Big Lagoon and Small Lagoon, the water here is cooler because of the cliffs that cover it from the sunlight.
However, a Hidden Lagoon tour is done during low tide, the water is only knee-high deep and activities are limited to quick dips or picture taking. But the mysteriousness of the Secret Lagoon is what makes it a worthy destination. 
5.)Discover the Hidden Beach
Tumblr media
Similar to the Big Lagoon, you will need to board a kayak or swim from your boat to get to this Hidden Beach. The pristine small stretch of white sand beach called the Hidden Beach is usually a part of Matinloc Island Premium Private Tour.
Boats cannot fit in the entrance to go to the Hidden Beach. Since the distance from where the boats dock and the beach itself is quite far; the best way to get inside is by riding a kayak from your boat where you'll pass through towering karst cliffs.
You can choose to swim going to the beach, but I'm telling you, it will take time. At the end of your kayak ride (or long swim), you will see a pristine beach with a stunning view of another opening going to the open sea, framed by two walls of pointy limestone cliffs. Truly a breathtaking view.
The crystal clear water here is more shallow than the Big Lagoon and Small Lagoon and is excellent for a relaxing swim. The white sand of Hidden Beach lined with lush greenery is also the right spot for sunbathing or building sandcastles if you have kids with you.
6.)Find the Secret Beach
Tumblr media
El Nido isn't done yet with hidden and secret places! A highlight and must-see during an El Nido speedboat island hopping tour is the Secret Beach. This hidden enchanting beach in El Nido is said to have been the inspiration behind the novel "The Beach," by Alex Garland. It was then adapted into a film starring Leonardo di Caprio. 
Once your boat arrives, you'll see nothing but a big wall of limestone cliffs with no beach in sight. To see the Secret Beach, you'll need to swim through the hole under the towering cliffs. A sweet surprise in the form of a hidden unspoiled beach awaits you behind the wall that surrounds it.
Be careful when swimming through the hole, especially if the waves are strong. Kayaks cannot go in through the hole, so your only option is to swim. Your tour guide will provide you with life vests and assist you as you make your way inside. But the struggle will be all worth it when you see the immaculate Secret Beach. 
7.)Relax at Shimizu Island
Tumblr media
Shimizu Island (also spelled as Simizu Island) is the perfect stop for you to relax in its cool white-sand beach or whip out your snorkeling gears to explore its colorful marine life. In fact, a Shimizu Island tour will let you lounge on one of the best beaches in El Nido and a popular lunch stopover as well.���
8.)Lounge in Seven Commandos Beach 
Tumblr media
The 320-meter long Seven Commandos Beach is said to have been named after seven soldiers who were stranded here during World War II. You can visit this when you book a Big Lagoon tour. 
Seven Commandos Beach is a postcard-worthy white sand beach lined with coconut trees and a massive wall of limestone cliffs in the background. It's the perfect last stop for tourists to lounge by the sand with a freshly opened coconut in hand. 
The Seven Commandos Beach has a shore wide enough for tourists to play beach volleyball or work on their tan. The beach is also known for its gentle waves; you can relax by the crystal-clear waters after a tiring day of kayaking in the lagoons.
It's also the right spot for snorkeling because of the calm waters and precious marine life. But you can always opt to have a lazy afternoon on its shores and enjoy the tropical island life.  
9.)See the View from Matinloc Shrine
Tumblr media
Unlike the beaches and lagoons of El Nido whose main highlights are their pristine white sand beaches and crystal clear waters. This island-hopping stop in a Matinloc Island Premium Shared Tour is a unique one.
The Matinloc Shrine, specifically the Shrine of Our Lady of Matinloc, is an abandoned spiritual oasis that sits on top of Matinloc Island and offers one of the best views of El Nido.
There's also a mini-museum on the island where you can learn about the shrine's history. The story says that a Matinloc devotee had a vision of a dome with 12 pillars and inside was the image of the Virgin Mary.
The shrine was built based on this vision, and once it was complete, they were blessed with a bountiful harvest of fish, thus becoming a holy place for Matinloc devotees.
10.)Lie on the Sandbar of Snake Island 
Tumblr media
Snake Island, aptly named because of its s-shape white powdery sandbar that connects a small island to the mainland of El Nido, is a popular attraction included in a Cave Exploration Private Tour. The sandbar only appears during low tide and is truly a sight to behold. 
Snake Island excursions feature gorgeous sandbar strip, hidden in Bacuit Bay, which is the perfect spot for a romantic stroll as you take in the breathtaking view. Dip your feet in the sand or lounge by its shores as the waves meet from both sides gently crash into you.
