Puerto Princesa. Oops, we could have missed our flight!

Feb 17

Our following two days are pretty low-key. We feel the aches from the miles we tackled on day one.
Our morning is spent planning and booking our next stop, shopping, picking up our new glasses, and walking around the area some more, dinner, and an early night.

Only, an early night was the original plan that included sleeping through the night and having a lazy morning before flying out.

Back in our room at 9 pm, we decided to check in for tomorrow's 2 pm flight to Puerto Princesa only to discover that we booked it for 02:00, not 2:00. Our plane leaves in 5 hours!
I was so disappointed, not because we messed up the times, but because the breakfasts here are really, really good, and now I'll miss it.
So we packed our bags, tried to nap for an hour, and headed to the airport. Our plane left at 2 am. for Manila for a 1.5-hour layover and arrived in Puerto Princesa around 6:30 am. I am feeling pretty sleepy by now, and looking forward to some RnR at the resort.

We check in but have to wait for our room to be ready as check-in is not until 3 pm. We enjoy a nice breakfast (not as good as the last hotel, but still very good) and head to the poolside to tackle more trip planning.
It's a nice resort and the staff are very accommodating, we are fortunate as we can access our room before noon.

We had lunch, booked a rafting tour for tomorrow, had a little nap by the pool, planned more of our itinerary, and then went off to bed after supper for an early night's sleep. Tomorrow will be a full day, so we must catch up on some shut-eye.
