Going To Aklan

Assalamu Alaykum…

Last March 20, we went to Aklan. We left the airport at 8:30 am. The check-in finished at 9:05 am. We waited at the check-in counter for about 20 minutes. Then we proceeded to the next counter where you pay your terminal fee. The fee was 200.00 pesos each so all in all we paid 1400.00 pesos. Then we went to the part where we put our things in the second x-ray scanner. The first one was at the entrance. In this second scanner, you are required to remove your shoes too! Maybe it’s because more bad people hide weapons on their shoes already. Lol…

Then we proceeded to the waiting area. On our way, we stopped by a corner so that those who wanted to pee could go to the CR.. While waiting for the others, a fellow Muslimah asks where and how could she get to “Gate 119” (It was a long way to that gate from the corner where we were). So Inah told her to go straight ahead.

Then all of us went to Gate 119 because that was also where we would wait our flight. We waited for 3 very exhausting hours… I think it was just because the three of us were very excited. Until it was time to board the plane. Zakiran kept on asking Inah, “That’s our plane already, right?”. It was very funny to see the way they carelessly threw your baggage to the airplane.. Ombellen’s painting which had a note “Handle with care” in it was about to be thrown just like the others until the man saw everyone looking. So he simply dropped the painting slowly…

All the things I experienced during this flight is what I call, our Sky Journey…

When we arrived at the airport of Kalibo, we were greeted by the sight of green trees everywhere, fresh air, and the smell of the sea. It was really a province!

Lolo Rex and Lolo Cristin were waiting outside the airport and Auntie Melrose arrived after a few minutes to take us home.

The house was big enough to accommodate 7-10 people. It wasn’t really small, I’m just used to seeing a big house I guess.

Our days in Aklan were full of fun! And we were always with our cousins…

Feeling shy, Playing, Pillow fighting, Swimming, and the last thing they all did, was being sad because we only stayed there for 4 days. They were already making some reasons for us to stay.. But I guess it was already late. So they said, the next time we go there, we should stay longer…

Wassalam…
