Iloilo - Capiz - Boracay

Before I forgot to share, I had traveled from Iloilo City to Capiz Province in order to arrive at Boracay Island.


My Lapaz Batchoy. I fill first my hungry stomach before continuing my travel. I love it when served hot.


I passed by this Iloilo Business Hotel and decided to take a shot to share here. To know more information about the hotel, you can visit their website here: http://www.iloilobusinesshotel.com/

Time to indulge once again in food. We stop by at Freska where we had our Bento Bento meal.





*burp* One thing I love about travelling is that I can savor specialty foods of the town. I'm not that choosy when it comes to food, not like the love of my life (-.-). So, I can't say anything not nice about this one.


We pass by the Capiz Province as we continue our travel. This is the Capiz arc that welcomes and bids goodbye to travelers.

Ilo-ilo May 2009

Approaching Panay Island. From here, we'll gonna see a wonderful landscape that covers the Island of Panay.

The New Ilo-ilo International Airport. It replaces Mandurriao Airport in Iloilo City proper which had been in service for over 70 years.
The airport is located about 19 kilometers northwest of Iloilo City on a 188-hectare site in Barangay Duyan-Duyan, split between the municipalities of Cabatuan, where the airport proper is located, and Santa Barbara, where the airport entrance and access road are located. It was about 45minutes drive to city of Iloilo.
Construction work on the new airport started on April 14, 2004. The project with a final cost of around 8.8 billion pesos was formally opened on June 13 with the arrival of the presidential aircraft at the new airport at around 9:50 am PST, with Governor Tupas leading provincial and city officials in welcoming President Arroyo to the new facility.

Airport access road. A newly developed access road was one of the new great sites in province of Iloilo. A long, well decorated by various plants, lighted in the night by street lighting post, and a green scenery makes your travel very entertaining and relaxing.

To give you some history about the humble start of this well-known food store in central Visayas, the story begins with this.
