CHAPTER 30 - Mia's Birthday Week

"Good morning, darling." He whispered into her ear as they cuddle in the bed whilst listening to the waves crashing on the sand. Mia opens her eyes and strokes his cheek, "I never thought waking up next to you would make me feel so happy." She said. Jeff smiles, "Likewise. You are the only person I wanna see when I wake up." He said then wrapped his arms around her waist and kissed her.

After cuddling and making out for a while in their bedroom, they head outside to find their breakfast meals ready. "It's so beautiful here." She said while looking out into the ocean. "But even more beautiful with you in it." He complimented her as he hugged her from the back. Then they sit down and start eating.

"So what's the agenda today?" She asked. He smiles, "It's a surprise." He answered. "Why won't you tell me?" She asked. "Because I don't want you to worry about anything. I want this trip to be as perfect as you." He replied. She was flattered and got all red, "You are so cheesy it's annoyingly cute!" She said.

Once they finished eating, they change into casual beach attire. Jeff wore a white linen button down shirt with black base and gray horizontal striped euro board shorts paired with his brown boat shoes and put on his Ray Ban wayfarer sunglasses. Mia wore a printed bohemian sundress paired with brown sandals, a black panama floppy hat and classic Ray Ban aviators. Then Jeff grabbed his camera and the bag while Mia got her tote bag.

As they walk towards the front desk, Gerald, their guide and chef led them to the boat that they will be riding in. "This is called a bangka. A boat that is made up of wood and kawayan. Kawayan is a kind of bamboo." He said. "We will be riding this to the city proper and back." He added. Jeff and Mia smiled, "This is very cool." He said.

Then they took a picture of it and in it then proceeded to the city proper

Then they took a picture of it and in it then proceeded to the city proper. A couple of minutes later, they arrive at Puerto Princessa where they were taken to the super market and the fish market.

Jeff and Mia play around while shopping for some ingredients like fresh produce and fresh seafood. They took pictures of each other joking around in the market sometimes playing with the fishes.

"Is it just me or have I smelled worse than this?" Jeff said smelling the fish market. Mia laughs, "I feel like you have." She went along. "But oddly enough, fresh fish, busy ports, noisy vendors calm me down." He replied. "Don't forget sweat!" She added and they both laugh.

"So let me guess, we're in a market buying fresh produce and fresh seafood, we're cooking aren't we?" Mia asked. Jeff wraps his arm around Mia and laughs, "Why are you so smart?" He joked and then kissed her on the cheek.

So after they picked out what they want to cook Gerald takes them back to the boat and headed back to Amanpulo.

When they arrived, they went to their villa and started setting up. Gerald taught them the basics first and showed them how to do it before actually doing it together.
