Islet of Bohol

It was 2005 when we visited bohol and stayed in our friend's grandparents house for a week. I forgot the name of their place. That was a fun vacation and we also toured Bohol during that trip. We bought our own food and rented a jeepney for that tour only. There is a nearby islet in that town so we went there and got drunk. It was a private islet. Not all our friends went with us to that islet because they were scared with the small boat. We rented a couple of small boats that will take us to the islet.

Bohol is one of the most visited island in the Philippines that is located in Central Visayas. Bohol is the tenth largest island of the Philippines. The best and common form of transportation to get to Bohol is by boat.

Bohol has 75 islands and islets. The largest island is Panglao which comprises the town of Dauis and Panglao and faces Tagbilaran City in the southwest. Lapinig, in the northeast, is the second biggest island which was formerly a progressive barrio of Ubay.

Tuesday Travels | Uber Exposed {Moalboal}

Warning: picture uber exposed!

I just created a new travel blog as replacement of the other travel blog that I lost interest updating with. The domain says it all what this blog all about.

Starting today, I'll post all my Tuesday Travels to this blog. So here you go;

This photos were taken a long time ago (2004 i think) in Bas Daku Moalboal, Cebu. I found a new group of friends at the gym, besides hanging out with my real and close friends. After class or work, I went to the gym and did some mouth work out because we spent time chitchatting instead of doing some workouts and aerobics. Going to the gym was one of my stress reliever back then. I enjoyed the company of these liberated gals.

That ladies in the right (both pics), the ones with perfect body tone and shape were the serious girls in the gym. They sometimes joined competitions. Anyway, one night the group decided to spend the weekend in the beach so we headed far South and stayed in a friends house for couple of days. I was supposed to proctor the Napolcom exam the next day but i totally forgot. I got a call from my co-teacher asking where i was because my partner was looking for me. I had fun as always and did not even bother to worry about what happened.

As I've said these people were very liberated and modern. They never care about how they look like in front of the public beach. From Bas Daku beach we headed to Kawasan Falls in Badian.

I miss going to the gym though and also miss this places in Cebu. It's funny because we spent hours in the gym but there's no changes with the body. Look at those love handles, aren't they gorgeous hehehehhe.

Bantayan Island, Cebu {Philippines}

Have you been to Cebu City? Have you tried exploring the island of Cebu? Cebu have so many beaches from North to South, just take a pick and you'll enjoy every bit of it. Located just west off the northern tip of Cebu Island you'll discover the Bantayan Island. It is also the main and largest island of the Bantayan Island Group that is roughly the geographical center of the Philippines. Bantayan Islands are considered as Cebu’s fishing ground from where boatloads of fish are transported daily to Cebu City and Negros. The island can be reached via bus from Cebu City then a ferry that will take you to the island. It's a long bus ride but it's all worth it. The place have nice hotel and resort to stay with and the people in this place are very hospitable and kind.

It was 2001 when a friend from Bantayan Island brought us there for a week vacation. We stayed at his place and accommodated us with the abundance of crabs, shrimps and seafoods. Believe it or not, the crabs and shrimps at this place are easy to catch. We even tried to catch some and gobbled it endlessly. It was by far the best experienced I ever had.

Sugar beach is one of the nicest beach in this little town. The sand is white and the cottages were very cheap. You just have to be careful going farther in that ocean as it also have tons of sea urchin and one of them got me. Yup, I was drunk and went to the water to cooled off and stepped on the sea urchin. They said the you won't get the sting if a man will peed on it. So, I asked my friend to peed and put the pee in a container. It was gross but i washed my foot with his pee and yet the stink still there.

This experience happened a very long time ago but in my head still fresh and made me smile just the thought of it.
