They say that into every life some rain must fall...and it did on our way to Caramoan. After a choppy 2-hour boat ride, a rainy and overcast Guijalo Port greeted us when we finally arrived. An unforeseen weather in the middle of summer, it was a bit uncomfortable but it was also preparing us for the good times to come. We accepted it as a blessing, and it didn't dampen our spirits---after all, it took us almost 18 hours to get here. We were determined to enjoy our vacation! Our boatman assured us there would sunshine the next morning---and true enough, a luscious dawn and a golden sunrise welcomed us when we woke up.

this is actually the kind of weather that I truly love.
i enjoyed reading your text.
Beautiful picture and double beautiful story! My husband and I always say that the journey (no matter what) should be part of the adventure! Thank you for sharing your photos!
Wow, no need for a sunscreen...truly a beautiful sight and a place I'd wanna be. btw, I like your blog color.
A misty day has its charm as long as it doesn't stay. Nice shots.
So very beautiful, and glad you had a day of sunshine to follow.
It looks incredibly peaceful!
beautiful!
What it that tall pole by the rocks?
Lovely photos, lovely attitude! Hope you had a great trip.
It looks like a really nice place to come to shore, even in the rain.
Whatever you felt that day, I just want to say that "gloomy" is not a word that I can use for your photos. I love them! The place looks wonderfully misty and quite romantic. Glad that the sun decided to come out the next day though. What's a beach trip without the sun? :)
This is a favorite kind of day near water for me...the foggy surroundings the sounds...nothing better. Great pics.
My day's post is all about turtles. The release of 110+ baby turtles into the Gulf! With pictures galore. DIRECT LINK
Have a super Wednesday.
a place for adventure. excellent photos.
Happy Vacation! What a lovely place. I think the rain was probably worth it.
There's a certain beauty in the fog and an inviting mysterious feel, too.
It looks like an island paradise.
Mysterious place... like Godzilla's back when she is diving...
Sometimes we have to remember that rain is natures friend as well as the sun. Great Shot.
as much as i want summer sunny shots, gloomy shots comes close to it. i like misty, foggy shots like these.
I guess i would nog mind the weather as long as I could vacation by the water. Anyway, its nice to have a gloomy day now and then.
Nice place.
For me, this is not gloomy at all. It has a dreamy and surreal feel which I love. It's truly beautiful.
We had a gloomy day way over here today also. But your photo's still look pretty.
You have a great attitude to the weather, a blessing indeed. Your photos are lovely, glad the sun shone for you the next day.
Thanks for stopping by and hope your week is going well.

Your pictures certainly show a gloomy port, but I'm glad to learn that the weather dramatically improved the next day.
I'm sure that when it passes, the view will be spectacular! Thanks for visiting my WW!
Great photos, Luna! The port reminds me of my hometown port.
Thank you for stopping by
