Jagna Rocks rocks!

Well, this summer brought lots of adventures for me and my family (thanks to my Mom, Sis and her hubby, and my brother). We went to Bohol during election day, but of course, we were still able to exercise our rights to suffrage. Bohol is such a wonderful place. People there are awesome as well, first in the line is our very accommodating grandma! Lola is such a blessings at her age of 89. 
It's been a nice day indeed

Anyway, one of the highlights in our 5-day vacation there is the Jagna Rocks where my sister and Eric opted to stay. It was a resthouse by the cliff where on its edge is a deep ocean. Since, they're mystified with the majestic wonders of the sea, everyday is a SWIMMING AND SNORKELING DAY! I'm just glad am a no-swimmer, otherwise I'll become a sea creature too. The place was truly a wonder! Aside from the fact that the entrance fee is so low (₱25/head), they served a really good food. So, the next time you'll set sail for Bohol, make this a part of your bucket list!
