My First Yacht Experience - Local Cruising ... Blog #002

in #ocd4 years ago (edited)

Wazzupp dear hivers!! Hello! Hope you are all inspired and motivated. @mhissfhey again here, sharing to you my 'one of my firsts'.

Yacht, seems so classy right? Cruising, seems so expensive, isn't it? But here we go, would you believe, my first yacht and cruising experience cost me nothing on it? Yes, I had it for free.

In the middle of pandemic, last first week of May in this current year, one of my beloved friends celebrated her birthday (a post birthday celebration). This birthday celebration is not an ordinary one because mama Lorna (that's how I called her) turns 70 this year. By the way maam Lorna is the eldest among of the friends I had. That made our friendship so unique. Going back, since this natal celeb is very special to mama, she only just inviting some of her special friends to be with us in this cruising within Mactan. A party and food trip around the ocean of Lapu-lapu City.

Regulary, the capacity of the yacht is about 50pax but since its pandemic they limit it in 30pax.
In our case, mama Lorna booked the cruising as private, no joiners so she needs to pay the special rate of 45,000 with lunch buffet as inclusion instead of 1,100/pax.

INCLUSION:

  • 6 menus (according to your choice)
  • 1 dessert
  • 1 round of softdrinks to all the guests
  • with welcome drinks/snacks

(PS. the lechon is not part of the buffet, we brought it)

ITINERARY:

  • Talima, Olango Island
    (first stop, the yacht will stop for the lunch of the guests)
  • San Vicente, Olango Island (San Vicente Sanctuary)
    (the guests were given the chance to swim together with the fishes and if lucky to see with the sharks as well)

The cruise is within 5 hours from the docking area situated in Artera Hotel and Resort in baranggay Punta Engaño, Lapu-lapu City to Olango Island and vice versa.

All the guest, including me, or all of us, the close friends of mama Lorna had so much fun with the trip and had an amazing experience. We enjoyed a lot and savour the moment that we were able to experience the once in a lifetime adventure since money is of value due to the crisis we are facing right now. Me, personally is so thankful to this experience given by mama Lornz. Truly a happy and wonderful experience. We enjoy the food, the moment upon sailing, the view, etc. very nice. Let me share to you our precious moments together, because the most important thing here is our bond and the happy moments shared from one another.
