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 :)
