Siargao Adventure: An Epilogue


We left Travellers Resort at almost 4AM on Tuesday, Sept. 23. We were all very quiet on the way to the port. Perhaps we were sleepy, perhaps we were musing, or perhaps we were simply in disbelief that this one good thing has come to an end.

The rest of the trip was uneventful. We rode the Fortune Angel and left Dapa at 6AM. I stayed at the upper deck and watched Siargao slowly disappear into the horizon...

*********************

Ronnie left Siargao a day after us. Dondi came to Butuan yesterday, Saturday. I invited both of them to a small dinner gathering at the Flores house in Doongan. It was Uncle Gumer's death anniversary. We introduced Dondi to our other friends, Janice, Caryl and Lynn. Jurgenne also came with Ronnie.

If our Siargao nights were crazy, this night was a laughfest. Dondi was visibly in awe of Lynn's hilarious antics. After all, Lynn/Lino, is the one who gave us "Gigicamer", "T-Fronter" and "Chikert! Chikert!" - all seemingly meaningless words but words that, to us, bring a million laughs...
