Litratong Pinoy #4 – Dalampasigan July 31, 2008

Ito ang isla ng Boracay noong 1996. Virgin pa ang dalampasigan ng Boracay noon hindi tulad ngayon. Ang hirap pang puntahan ang kabilang dako ng isla kung nasaan ang white sand. Sumakay kami ng tricycle at naglakad ng malayo bago kami nakarating. Medyo maputik pa noon at sinisimulan pa lamang ang pagtayo ng hotel at golf course. Alam ko marami ng pagbabago ngayon sa islang ito. Kelan kaya ulit ako makakapunta dito? Basta ang alam ko hindi na ito tulad ng dati.

This is Boracay Island in 1996. The beach in Boracay is still virgin during this time unlike today. It was hard to get to the other side of the island where the white sand is. We took the tricycle and walked far before we reached our destination. It was a bit muddy at that time and they were still starting to build a hotel and golf course. I know that there’s a lot of changes in this island now. When can I visit this place again? All I know is that it’s not the same as before.
