Boracay

I went to Boracay for Chinese New Year! We stayed in the White Beach area and had fun on the beach reading and making sand castles and in the water, body surfing. We went out on a catamaran to go snorkeling and sailing. Half way through the trip we hear snap, boom, bang...the mast broke and came swinging towards my friends who ducked quickly. We all got really wet and had to make a crash landing further down on the beach. We had fun and walked home instead of sailed.
