" Let's go back to Basic - Anawangin Cove" ***This is just a continuation of my recent trip.*** **My longest Boat Ride** https://read.cash/@Lhes/my-longest-boat-ride-1a72ebf8 **Island Hopping- Capones Zambales** https://read.cash/@Lhes/island-hopping-capones-zambales-1117e8e5 After our island hopping at Capones, we headed to Anawangin cove which was our destination.

This is the place we are going too. While on the boat I already felt excited as who wouldn't? It's been a while I means since the last time I visited the beach. I was silently asking myself which mountain is for trekking, lol. I already imagined in my head what the view was when I reached the summit. After paying the entrance fee which cost $2 the resort employee directed us some rules in order to avoid some penalties which means our deposit will be forfeited. The boat man accompanied us to find a location where to set up our tent. There were already a lot of local tourists and the area near the comfort rooms was already crowded so we chose the near end of the resort. I was actually expecting there would be someone to help us in setting up our tent. Fake news, we were only escorted until the area we wanted and was left in there. Like okay guys you are all big enough. We could no longer contact the one we paid for a tour package as there is NO signal and even electricity. We were eleven and they provided us with 6 tents which is fair enough. Honestly I don't have an idea how but thankful as it was only a simple tent. Not complicated to assemble.

As you can see, our tent was just a few walks away from the seashore! The sea was actually inviting us but we still needed to cook and prepare our lunch. Correction I mean, they still need to cook, haha. There is no gas or kitchen. It is like " let's go back to basics" so we just cook using charcoal and some wood which is supposed for a bonfire.

I tried frying the fish " tilapia" , OMG, it was hard dude! I can't hold the pan if I need to check if the fish is already cooked as it was hot. We forgot to bring a pot holder and the pan was not non - stick so this is what happened to my fried fish.

I am not proud of it! I really sucks in the cooking department. I already accepted that I am just fond of eating but not in preparing what to eat. So I told them if they wanted to have a presentable and edible food they better do the cooking. So while they are busy cooking rice, frying and grilling fish , yours truly was just there. Standing in the corner, while hand on her waist. haha. Good thing they are patient with me or else they might say " ***hey you didn't cook so you are not allowed to eat***".

They manage to cook the fish and even the chicken adobo. Our only problem is the pork liempo ( pork chop) that is supposed to be grilled. We already ran out of charcoal and it was stressful to cook! My Boss and I were talking about how to solve the issue. So we walk around hoping to find means. We ended up knowing that there is someone whom you can pay to cook. 3kgs of pork cost $10 (grilled). It was expensive but we wanted to lessen the hassle. Oh, it was not me who paid, my Boss did. I just accompany her.

This is the area where we set up our tents. It was under the shade of these beautiful trees. There are cottages actually with CR and kitchen but we opted not to rent. We all agreed to have an experience " going back to basics". That's all for today and maybe I will be sharing our activities in my next article. Happy weekend! I know I been spending less time in here for the entire week. It is just still felt tired plus my internet connection sucks. I don't know with PLDT ( internet provider) but seems like connection was slower if the duedate is near. Every 5th of the month. I am usually requesting the payment on time but I just got busy. Since I am an impatient, to avoid getting mad. I just opted not to browse. 😂😂 **04:47 PM** ***05/27/2022_Manila Philippines*** **You can contact me here.** **Noise cash** https://noise.cash/u/Lhes ***Telegram*** https://t.me/Lhes18
