hale manna part 3: mornings by the beach

we did take a dip when the tide rolled in the night before so our time at the beach wasn't wasted at all. tired from the late swim, we slept early and woke up early enough to enjoy the cold morning breeze. the tide was mid-level and we were able to kayak safely over to the hut on a raft in the middle of the sea and swim with the fishes. the water was so clear, you don't need a snorkel to see the corals and colorful creatures below it. okay, okay, so i am a good swimmer but i cannot snorkel for the life of me. i don't know, i've tried it several times but end up getting water up my nose. sue me! LOL. 

after the swim and before our sumptuous lunch, we spent the great part of our morning lounging, the best way we know how.

we went home around 3PM, hearts a little heavy and promising to come back soon. my sister will be leaving for Sydney in a few days and we had other duties to attend to but our stay in Hale Manna will always be something we will remember. 

we couldn't pass up the chance to grab yummy dessert on the way back to the city and dropped by the milk station in Barili. a cup of homemade ice cream (okay, i got 3 cups, shared with Harry since i couldn't decide on flavor) and locally made barquillos completed our weekend vacation.
