Sam & I enjoyed 4 beautiful days & 3 relaxing nights at El Nido Lagen Resort in Palawan, Philippines. It was amazing!!
We took hundreds of breathtaking photos, but haven't had a chance to sit down & organize them all quite yet. So, in the meantime, I will just post a few of my favorites. In the coming days, however, I hope to post our day to day adventures & escapades in paradise. I never want to forget our fabulous 11th anniversary celebration! I'm not sure we can ever top this... unless we come back! :-)
Our first day at the resort, we hiked to a private beach on the opposite side of the island. On the hiking trail, we passed this massive tree with roots that towered above us. It is hard to appreciate the enormous size of these roots until you see them in person.

Amberly, that is just beautiful! How cool that you guys got to take advantage of your location and go somewhere like that for your anniversary? Awesome!

Looks like such a wonderful place! Glad you could enjoy it and have a special time together!! How ironic my verification word on your site today is seatank :)
WOW!!!! What a beautiful place to celebrate your anniversary! You both look great! Congratulations!!!
Man, it looks so beautiful! I'm so jealous. Wished we had the time to squeeze Palawan in before we leave. Your pictures are wonderful. That underwater camera was well worth the money. Can't wait to see the rest!
It's not expensive to visit the islands of the Philippines.
The most misconception about the islands that they are not safe but Amberly and Sam prove them wrong.
Happy Anniversary.
Your family makes The Philippines more beautiful!
Thank you and God Bless.
Achilles, thank you so much! We love living here! Would love to stay longer, if given the opportunity, but we are grateful for each moment! It is a great country & very safe. Friendly, hard-working people who are so proud of their paradise home... love the Filipino culture!
