after we accomplished our mission to find the seashells…we then head out to island and resort hopping. a local enticed us to go island hopping to Virgin island, a 30 minute ride with a pump boat which costs us only 800.00 from the 2000.00 that the resort service is offering us.  he cautioned us not to tell the resort that he offered us that price since they do not allow it.  and so we changed into our swimming attires and head out to another resort where the pump boat is waiting…

we took turns taking a pic while we were riding in one trisicad...all three of us with cindy in front

our pumpboat that will take us to Virgin island

a quick pose before we ride the pumpboat...heading out to Virgin Island

i was pretty apprehensive with riding a small pump boat that i had to ask assurance from our employee in that island who accompanied us with the trip if it’s ok and if it don’t get wavy or something that might turn the boat over (i have to make sure!!!) thankfully, we had a smooth sailing 30 minute trip to Virgin Island. the water indeed is very much crystal clear…

crystal clear water that we can see through the corals...starfish beneath

josh so behaved during the entire trip

Virgin Island

there were sea shells around that cindy couldn't help to take with her...afterall it's free!

bye2X virgin island!

we only stayed for a couple of minutes in Virgin Island, it was just too hot and Cindy had a bagfull of seashells already.  Snorkeling is best at the waters of this island since there are a lot of corals. It is a secluded island fit for couples who want utmost privacy.  we were informed that there are cottages around if we’d want to stay overnight.  On our way back another pumpboat with Korean tourist is heading out to the place we just went into.
