People love having fun with little danger from time to time. I love the crocodile park for letting us have a glimpse on the world of crocos and their like, however, seeing also children exposed to these kind of danger makes me think twice.

Just scuba diving...The most amazing place to dive :-)

It was just a 5-day short trip to Philippines, with 3 days in Boracay and 2 days in Manila. Boracay is a fantastic place, the long shoreline and the beaches, the sand is white, smooth and soft. You know, I think I can stay there for a month if allowed!
