Etched Trip in Dakak


I was still in third year high school when I’ve gone to the place named Dakak Island. We spent our grand reunion there for almost a week. In actual fact, I was amazed by the beauty of the place, its fine white sand, the cold seawater and pool, attractive places, freezing breeze of the wind, and of course those luscious food served to us. Every time I see those foods, it made me feel so starve, and its pungent smell causes my stomach to groan. Well, I must not waste time, so I ate a lot and feel every bite.

I’ve also experienced riding in a pump boat. The crew let us wear those life jackets, safety first. The mid-floor of the boat is a translucent glass that helps you see the under water. I saw various fish and gigantic coral reefs under water. And as we go on farther, the hygienic blue seawater became a green one. I almost don’t want to step out of the boat for I want another ride, but my mother would not let me. My cousins and I were only barefooted because we love to feel the fine white sand as we walk around the place. I’ve seen numerous sea urchins in that island and when you accidentally step on that, it would hurt you and causes a wound on your foot. And I was perplexed knowing that urine would help heal the wound. From knowing that, it causes me to feel petrified, so I started wearing my slippers thinking that I might accidentally step on that cluttered sea urchins. And I’m also scared that I’ll have wound and they would sprinkle urine on it (hehehe). But that sea urchins never stop us from admiring the place. But now, we've heard that no more sea urchins exist there. The cottages were also nice that you would feel comfortable staying on it. I can really say that, the place is really stunning one. And also seeing those good-looking coast guard added the beauty of the place. We slept in the sand, we just put a blanket and then lay down. Seeing those sparkling stars in the skies above, makes me stunned. And feeling the freezing breeze of the wind makes me solidify. We just stayed at the nearby water and waited till the sunset appears. And as we woke up, we’ve seen the sun as it rises, exquisite. The experience is really great, I hope that I can go back there and spend a day.
