We have always spent christmas as at home as a family except for 2 or 3 times when I had to be on duty in the hospital. For the past 3 years we have made it a bit of a tradition to go out of town and spend christmas in a different place.
This year we spent it first in Boracay. I have been there 3 times before (2000, 2005 and 2008) and it is still paradise for me.
Even if it has become a lot more commercialized over the years, it is the only beach I've been to that actually pulls me into the water. Powder-fine soft white sand, crystal clear waters that seem almost freshwater-like, and cool breezes that have the right amount of humidity mixed with bright sunshine... Perfect! :D
