the 2009 mossimo bikini summit gets blown over by a summer storm



This just in, as the Barefoot Baklesa was enjoying a round of drinks at Guilly's in Bora, the male finalists of this year's Mossimo Bikini Summit have decided to make an appearance. Just earlier, the long awaited search was brought to a grinding halt when the set-up for the said event lost it's footing against what Mother Nature brought in [as in within 20 minutes, the stage for the event was not fit for performance]...Thus the event was cancelled and moved to next saturday with the metropolis as the new venue -well, that's what couturier Eric Pineda told him personally...

But let us rewind the clock a few hours:

the barefoot baklesa suddenly found himself in a van heading for the Caticlan Port in Malay, Aklan from the de los Reyes ancestral house [Balay de los Reyes] in San Jose, Antique no more than thirteen hours ago...

Upon docking in Boracay Island late that afternoon, I realized that the 2009 Mossimo Bikini Summit was to have their finals that evening at Fairways and Blue Water -which is on the other side of the island. Of course, the Barefoot Baklesa was thinking of the really cute Andrei Endique and his "bishounen" bet: Jiro Shirakawa. Hahahahaha!!!

After getting freshened-up, we decided to take a stroll along the beach -that was around sunset- when a freakish summer storm blew in on one side. With camera on hand, I was able to take a shot of the dark clouds as they blew in... And as mother nature surprised us on one side, she was letting the sunshine out with the sunset just flawlessly descending into the sea which also made a pretty picture...



speaking of what should have made a pretty picture, as I was introduced to the guys by Mr. Eric Pineda [he designed and executed some of the swimsuit sets for this year], I forgot to have my picture taken with them!!! Argh!!!

thus spake the Barefoot Baklesa

are you still in bora? i stayed in fairways there one time. mas ok na ba facilities nila?

we just got back at the ancestral homea while ago.
i didn't stay at fairways though... we were hotel hopping through the beach expanse.

The Waling-Waling was quite quaint... years ago, we stayed at Sea Wind... and the Regency, though convenient, seemed too daunting after the expansion.

Next time, I wanna try Shang in Bora...
