Cebu Day 2 Photo Diary

We woke up extra early on our 2nd day at Cebu to catch the 8 am island boat trip. We met up with keith's other friends at mcdo then we headed to savemore supermarket to buy food for our island hopping. We had quite an adventure going to our destination because we rode in a pick up truck. It was my first time to do that and it was fun, i felt cool that time with my aviator shades while the wind is gushing to my face ;)




 Julienne and I, goofing around ;) 



With our new found friends :) 

 We definitely enjoyed sight seeing while we were on the boat and the reason for that is this breathtaking view...

 The Pandanon Island  




Our country is really beautiful, who would have thought we have this picturesque beach. I immediately fell in love with Cebu. This is paradise people! :)


Blue skies, white sand, clear blue sea, best girlfriends + new friends..This is the life! :) 


                                                                                  My sexy loves :)



Jul and I

We stayed at Pandanon Island for almost 3 hours, we also had our ihaw ihaw lunch there. Our next stop is the marine sanctuary where we had the chance to snorkel and swim in the middle of the sea. 





We are ready to jump ;) 

It's actually my first time to swim in the middle of the sea without a life jacket. :) 



 The gang  

 Tanned and happy girls on our way home 

I'm a beach lover, so i would say that this is the highlight of my trip in cebu. This is the most beautiful beach that Ive been to so far. Isn't it too obvious in our pictures that we enjoyed this day so much :) Our day hasn't end yet because as soon as we got home and clean ourselves, we went to a videoke place to experience Cebu's night life. The place is named IT park, the vibe is similar to Makati or Alabang. 



As you can see I'm always singing in the pictures. I really love to sing, im a frustrated singer! I'm good at dancing but i cant sing to save a life :)) 


Our Cebu trip will never be this memorable without them :)

Cebu Day 1 Photo Diary

Last January 18-21, 2012 me with my two best girlfriends Zhantelle and Julienne went to Cebu. Its our first out of town trip together, like, an airplane ride trip kind of thing. So, imagine our excitement when the day finally arrived. Thanks to cebu pacific's 12 php fare promo, we were able to go there without spending tons of money for airfare. Another good thing is that we stayed at julienne's friend at Korea, Keith :) we really saved a lot for this trip. It's also nice that keith is there to accompany us, he's a local at cebu and he really showed us other places in cebu aside from the usual tourist spots.  

 Our first dinner upon arriving Cebu, we ate at a restaurant named "Chika-an" they have yummy baked scallops :)


                         First stop during our day tour: Lapu,Lapu and Magellan's shrine  






                                                    Keith (Those lens!)  

 At Fort San Pedro 

 The town's history 


                           
                                            At Basilica De Sto. Nino                       

   
St. Augustine  

  We took a picture with them because we had the same uniform when we were in CSA



BPI Cebu Museum  

 We were not allowed to take pictures inside, you should really visit their museum because they have the old coins and bills during the old times, its quite interesting :) 


 
The infamous Magellan's Cross


After our tour to all of these sites, we went to sm cebu to grab a quick lunch and stroll around the mall..we also saw this really cool car made of abaca (not sure) ;)


 After our trip to the mall, we went to taboan to buy pasalubongs for our loved ones in Manila. I bought some otap, danggit, dried pusit and dried mangoes :) 

Old Manila Vibe 

We also went to Taoist temple 


Before going to crown regency hotel for our skywalk adventure, we had to fill our tummy first because were all tired from the tour we had that day. We decided to eat at Handuraw Pizza, i only have three words to describe it. BEST.PIZZA.EVER :) Its really so good! We ordered their handuraw special and cebuano special. The latter is a little spicy for my taste, so i only had one slice of it. 


After dinner, we went to crown regency hotel for the skywalk adventure. Keith, Zha and I tried the edge coaster ride where in you'll be tilted from your sit 45 degrees from the 38th floor of the hotel. Its really scary, i keep screaming my lungs out while  we were on the ride. Nevertheless, it's a fun and extreme experience for me :) too bad jul, didnt tried it because she is afraid of heights, but im really glad she's conquering it one step at a time because she accompanied us in the sky walk :) 


 We survived the skywalk adventure :) It was a fun and thrilling experience for all of us. Our friend keith is somewhat our fellow tourist also because even though he lives in cebu, he doesn't go out that much so most of the things we did on day 1, he experienced it first time too :)
