Day 40

We have an activity list for today - fly fish, banana boat, Zorb, zip lining, para-sailing,  kite surfing, jet skiing, helmet diving, snorkeling, island hopping.....and we ended up doing... drum roll.......more DRUM ROLL.....
walking, shopping, swimming and eating!  Oh, after much coaxing from Rina, we ended up jet skiing.

A half hour, 45 MPH Sea-Doo ride around a set pylons which were sometimes impossible to spot due to glare and waves. We rode tandem with Rina going at it first but after a couple of rounds she asked me to take over.  It was pretty hard to control going full speed and when the craft starts planing and skimming over waves.  It was in a turn when I started easing off on the throttle to make a smooth right turn on a pylon mark when a freak wave broadsided us starboard making me lose my grip on the throttle thus slowing the craft down considerably hurling Rina over my left side and into the drink.  It took a couple of tries to get her back on board as we were laughing so hard.  We finished our half hour with more respect to the craft and the element.

Kudos to the Boracay Island Adventures crew who were on the scene immediately to render assistance.

That night, we bought a bottle of tequila thinking that it'll be enough to get us at least giddy before hitting the clubs - oh how wrong we were!  Oh well, its already day 41 (Sunday 12-ish AM) so we decided to head on over to Epic.  Yey, Roselle and I elected to have a full body massage first to get us loosen up - it was a half hour of pure heaven - I wanted to hit the sack after that but the music emanating from Epic was so inviting so we hooked up with the rest of the gang, ordered myself a mojito and danced away till 3AM.  It was a fabulous end to a long fun day!
