Spending the weekend in Masasa Beach // May 6 to 7, 2017 (Photo Blast)

At Masasa Port

I've already made plans for the weekend, when Paulo initiated a getaway to Masasa Beach in Tingloy, Batangas with his other friends.  His persuasion skill is remarkable.  He was able to convince Trixie and Jerico, who already have other plans to come along.  A mandatory tour took place!
