summer get-away

so soon...
since february, i have been planning for our summer get-away... too bad, i was having second thoughts on where to go and what to do's...
first, there's bohol....
then, there's coron, palawan....
then, there's boracay...
then, finally there's bohol once again...
okay. let's stop right here before i think about davao and cdo-camiguin....i have always been fickle minded and i really can't make up my mind where to go... i can't be in three places at the same time so i have to choose before p would even think of banging my head on the wall... wink...wink...
so what's with bohol? well, boholanos would surely know the answer but as for me who's been down south all my life, bohol is the place to be... there's chocolate hills, there are tarsiers, there's loboc river, there's mag-aso falls, there's baclayon church and baclayon museum, there's the blood compact site, there's hinagdanan cave, there's sagbayan peak, there's the bilar man-made forest, there's candijay mangrove, there's balicasag island, there's sandugo festival and much much more...oh i even forgot the famous bohol delicacy which is the peanut kisses....
with all those tourist spots in bohol, i think a five day visit won't be enough... now that i have finally made up my mind on where to go, i only have to worry about our airline and our accommodation... first option was the flag carrier but it surely would depend on the availability of seats on that certain date and the budget of course. i intend to stay in dao diamond in tagbilaran while we are on our countryside tour and perhaps stay in bohol beach club located in panglao island for some swimming and snorkeling.
by the way, dao diamond bed and breakfast is owned by the International Deaf Education Association Phils. this is my first option because 100% of the profit will benefit deaf children in bohol and leyte for their quality education... that's really something eh? you can visit their website here!!! how can i arrange everything when p's arrival will be on may and not on june!!! can i arrange everything in such a very short notice? arrggghhh...panic mode
