Boracay 2024 Day 2: A Day of Thrills, Slpills, and Surprisingly Chlorine-Free Pools: The Disney Princess Edition   Our Boracay 2024 adventure continued on Day 2 with a thrilling dose of adrenaline. Parasailing and jet skiing had left us soaked, windswept, and utterly exhilarated. But the adventure wasn't over yet!

Jetski Staff, however, seemed less than impressed.   Next up: the speedboat. This wasn’t your average, gentle putt-putt. This was a Sumo-wrestling-champion-on-water kind of speedboat. The ride to the parasailing platform felt like a James Bond movie, only instead of suave sophistication, I was clinging to the side, shouting like I was on a rollercoaster ride...
