I love my friends and their adventurous spirits! A few years I randomly posted on fb who wants to go on a cruise and within 24hrs Veronica and I were set to sail on our very first trip together. We of course had to made a mandatory stop at Disney World, see Around the “Disney” World in 2.5 Days, as Veronica had never been.
This was also Veronica’s first time snorkeling and although she started off a bit rocky, she survived and had fun from what I was told. Even with the two of us got a bit cranky near the end of the trip it was a fantastic time and I, as per usual, got burn due to bad sun screen application. I had a lovely zig zag down my back!

Hello Lucy!
It was my first time snorkelling, I am not the greatest swimmer and my life jacket was a bit big for me so when we jumped in the water, I struggled to find my float and then I realized how claustrophobic I am when I had the mask on! So basically I just freaked myself out when I put my head in the water, and could hear my own breathing but could not breath through nose! I had a little bit of hysterics, Janna slapped me out of it so to speak and then I was all good 🙂 However, when we tried to go again in Disneyworld, I was a bit freaked out and could not follow through, so I do not think snorkelling is for me!
If you are claustrophobic, I would recommend testing out a snorkelling mask in like a sink or something just to get used to it. But definitely give it a try!

I love your blog! I’ve been to this island as well and it is stunning! Glad you had a great time – sorry about the zig zag burn. My boyfriend just got back from a solo trip and came back with patches of burn where he wasn’t able to apply his sunscreen by himself. Ouch.

Thanks! hehehe awww yeah I had someone apply it for me. So it wasn’t my fault, but being so ghostly white I’m used to it

Don’t be, at least not now. Beaches and snorkeling spots may be just a few hours away (I’m based in the Philippines right now so, islands everywhere), but it’s monsoon season and it seems that there’s typhoon almost every single weekend!
