Have pity on her, she’s an old girl.

@Khamzat Chimaev
I guess that you could say that they’re swimming with the fishes! :D

Correction: those black fishes arent Lapulapus, they’re nothing but just Tunas and Blue Marlins.

Stupid me. 😬

I was able to provide for my mother.

So… much… water! :O

Nice seeing all the fishes, and great pic of the falls and you and your mum!

Here’s a much better picture of the falls we visited yesterday.

It feels like I’m living in a fever dream that I keep hurting myself to see if I am really awake.

Were still yet to visit the “Enchanted River”. Which is one of the most beautiful natural landmarks around this place.

@Khamzat Chimaev
Spectacular.
That one looks worthy of a photo magazine/website!

Today has been most entertaining.

Local antics, lots of food and a river of beer

I GOT UP CLOSE TO A MANTA RAY YOOOOO!!!

Imma upload all my vlogs about this whole trip on YouTube when we got back home tonight.

@Khamzat Chimaev
Aha! A fellow manta ray buddy! /)

@Khamzat Chimaev
This further cements my ideology that we can pet anything.

What a cute and flat boi

We just finally visited Enchanted River.

My goodness, this place REALLY lived up to it’s name!

We swam this river and the water there is soo prestine, you can easily see the bottom of the surface.

We just visited 3 different tourist destinations in just 2 days in just the very first 2 days of 2023… FUCKING CRAAAAAAZZZYYYYY!!!!!! 😍😍😍😍😍

First, we went to see that amazing waterfalls, then rode a boat going into that Fish Cage Hotel.

We stayed and slept overnight on that hotel with those manta rays, sharks, and tunas.

The next day we swam and fed those fishes before we left and sailed towards the Enchanted River.

It has truly been a wild, adventurous, and family-relative bonding first 2 days of 2023 trip ever and it will be etched in my mind as one of the greatest and most memorable trips in my whole entire life. It has been awhile since I saw and swam the seas since 2017, rode a boat since 2015, and also saw a first times like interacting with sea creatures like manta ray, swam alongside those creatures, and swam through a prestine waters of the famous river.

I rate this trip a 9.6-10. This will be remembered in my mind for many years as much as my long past trips several years ago.

A Local Cyberclub (a place with locally installed PC’s to play) has announced Guitar hero competition on January 4th, training myself for it!

So instead of going back home last night, we actually went straight on to my mother’s relatives’ own beach resort for a family reunion.

Oh goodie I may not be fond of family reunions because I usually find it cringe but the views here are relaxation for my eyes.

@Khamzat Chimaev
So, the fun continues!

@Khamzat Chimaev
That would make a killer computer wallpaper

I caught something cute and nostalgic on the beach this afternoon.

@Khamzat Chimaev
’Ey! A hermit crab!

I know that “Good job, internet” is supposed to be sarcastic but I want to believe it isn’t.
