Expectations | Boracay Island, Aklan, Philippines

You got to be careful if you don't know where you're going, because you might not get there.
~ Yogi Berra

Before the rain...

Station 1
White Beach
Boracay Island
Malay, Aklan, Philippines

(Behind-the-scene: Last day in the island and I decided to go out for an early morning stroll. I have been to this island 4 times since the early 90s and so much has changed. And when I say "so much" I am not exaggerating. They have Starbucks and Havaianas in the island now. They even have tricycles and passenger jeepneys for rent. Whence then everything was mostly basic. You walk a mile to get to your watering hole. No pun intended. And that was fun. But, ahh, anyways. At the end of my little stroll I espied these two guys. They weren't fishing. Not drinking any early morning beverage either. They were just looking out to the open waters. I don't know. But beaches do that to you. Make you gaze out to nowhere. Guaranteed. I was sure they won't mind, so i took this picture. Not too long later, the rain came. )
