Bais Market and Lunch on the Bangka at the Manjuyod Sandbar

After breakfast we went to the public market of Bais and went shopping for lunch 🙂  Fresh seafood of course

Whaleshark food 🙂 Krill.  There is a limited supply already of this maybe because they have been feeding the whalesharks in the area 🙂  They say they have to get from Leyte

When you get to Manjuyod, there are 4 cottages for P 3,000.00 and there is one big cottage for a bit more but can fit more people which you can rent to hang out in and eat in – but we decided to just stay in the boat

We spent P 2,000 for all that we bought in the market and it fed 11 people on the boat and there were so many leftovers yet.  One of the best meals this trip

Indian Mango for P 10.00 a kilo!!  Tasted good but I found it a bit too fibrous it kept getting stuck in my teeth 🙂

    I am suddenly craving for a vacation in my province, Ms. Rica. Nothing beats fresh sea food, and postcard pretty views.
