Side trip to Kalibo, Aklan

Our side trip to Kalibo, Aklan. Wished it was their Ati Atihan fest....

Left by the boat going to Looc, Tablas Island after our Boracay Christmas unplanned get away, Edith and I were convinced by some Aklanon who were in a jeepney waiting for more passengers going to Kalibo, to visit their place. We also thought of going to Iloilo but took the first option, otherwise, our itinerary would turn into a mess. 

We arrived in Kalibo after more than 2 hours ride. We asked some residents for a possible good place near the sea where we could spend our night. They suggested Tambak, a few km from the town.

While in the tricycle, we almost suffered from stiff neck looking around expecting to see nice beach resorts. Unfortunately, we felt betrayed. We were dropped to an inn near karaoke bars and pubs and were surprised to be asked "short time?" by the caretaker. Instead of  fussing about this experience, we decided to walk around and let our regrets be drowned by the furious sound of the sea waves. 

My eyes captured the waves lambasting the stones in the shore line.Little did we know it was a broken sea wall when we went nearer.

Stunned for a while, we watched the strong current as it mercilessly bumped into the the almost submerged shattered sea wall bringing more havoc to it.

Then we decided to take more pictures standing on the sea wall but the waves came to us before my killer smile and Edith's Ms Universe pose were captured by the camera. It either showed its hostility or just wanted to play with us. :) We chose to believe the later.

Even the fishermen too were enjoying, showing their skill in swimming while pulling the net fish as the waves continue to dance with them. 

Bothered by the wave's trick, we hurriedly headed back to our rented room. We woke up early to catch the only trip going to Looc, Tablas, Island.

On our way to the jeep's terminal, we saw the overnight creation of the tricky waves as it left evidence. It was not only the broken sea wall but also the road/ highway which is slowly eaten away.
