Speed

Yun nasa Isip mo Lang speed, brake, maneuver, control, rocks, iwasan Ang Sanga, Daanan Ang lubak.   Instinct!   Parang "life is a highway I can ride it all night long". Not sure if Tama Ang lyrics ko.   Alam ko Lang joy ride & slow down daw.  Masaya dahil sa control ko adventure ride ko.  Numbers of slopes and turns.

HAPPY BIRTHDAY TO ME,  LIFE BEGINS .......


Thank you Lord, I woke up with a smile... A new day ..... texted "sick leave"
Last night feeling pressured leaving 30sh behind celebrated with few friends, beer & pancit. Last  Sunday, simple merienda with family at San Mateo
First time @ home in xxx # of years I'm always out there .....travelling.
Rhinitis attack & hangover =(

Thankful, everything happened decade ago, chased my dream and last year it was a blast of adventures in life.

Another year and decade, new goal, maybe new beginning .... work hard & earn more ..... Save for the next dream and new inspiration.

CEBU CITY, ALCOY, OSLOB, MOALBOAL, MACTAN












October 27 to nov1 2015, girl power duo trip with Elisa
Night 1. Beer drinking at mango square to save accommodation for 1 night
Day 1 - Alcoy beach, via CEbu bus terminal 3hours away. Manong pababa po Sa Tingkoy beach Sa Alcoy via Ceres non-aircon bus

We spend whole morning at Alcoy, bakit Ganun #2 Na best beach sya pero not what I expected. Nkita ni isay disappointed Ako, we did not stay overnight Sa Alcoy Ang mahal pa ng nipa hut room. Entrance fee p20 then table is php200 cr php10. Sumakay kmi ng trike going to market to eat. Carinderia & buy some bread. Walk around the beach and may spot for swimming. Kelangan ma-dip ka.  

Few walks away while waiting for the bus, long beach is scenic we even saw baligtad Na rainbow. Then Ceres bus again going to Oslob we decided to spend overnight there. We met habal habal man and negotiate for the whole day service php700 each. Check in Sa resort with Ac, swimming pool for php1200 per night. It was so hot after lunch simula Na ng mahaba habang inuman Sa resto. Aftn swim Sa pool, dinner time few drinks then borlogs Kse we need to wake up early thefollowing day.

Day 2. Oslob eto Na po Ang adventure. Isay rented camera & snorkel while I pay for our entrance fee. Orientation then Yun Na 2 kmi Sa boat + 2 boatmen (1picture & 1 guide) panic attack Ako Nung nilubog Ako (di Ako marunong lumangoy). Panic#2 ayan Na si sharky imbis si Kuya hawakan ko si tail Ni sharky nahawakan ko( panic kala ko kakainin Ako). 

Aguinib
Osmena peak
Hope matandaan ko Yun ibang town super scenic ng place via habal ride 

Lunch and head to Moalboal
Check in Sa Tipolo resort & stayed 2 nights
Moalboal beach snorkeling, one of the best underwater species (Talaga) at show off Ang mga sardines parang may circus Sa ilalim ng tubig,  

Head to mactan Sutukil pricey turista price 
Last stop coffee & drinks Sa airport

U STORY & MY STORY AT SIQUIJOR

Almost missed out my flight "again". Nagpalit ng gate habang nsa resto Ako. Cebu pacific Talaga, halos isa Ako Sa last peep Na sumakay ng bus.  
Welcome to dumaguete! Work, I have pendings at work Na I need to coordinate. As I read Sa trip advisor & blogs, wala raw signal Sa smart esp Sa resort.
Before lunch I went to MB then head to Port. Ayun sailing sched at 12pm thru GL Lines
Upon arrival, a polite driver tour guide approached me. We went to tourist center then haggled for the price for island & mountain tour. I can do it daw for one day but selected places. I optnot to

Php300 one way to Ustory, malayo sya true enough since it's located in tag-Ibo

Wow!!!!!! Super Ganda ng place, there you go "NO SIGNAL". Met Laurence glad I reserved for a bungalow months before my flight since they only have 4 rooms and open from Nov to May only. Reason: they go back to France with his Pinoy hubby( bartender ng coco grove, famous resort in siquijor)











When I looked at the menu super mahal ng food. I ordered chicken spring roll for php120 and a bottle of beer. Taste: imagine chicken fajita rolled in lumpia wrapper deep fried. TripAdvisor is so true-Lala, ambiance, room & food 5 star perfect!

Then staff accompanied me Sa room, so cutee & sweet. Window, veranda bed, roofless bathroom, so many sockets, interior, view, restaurant, warm people, everyone remember my name. Even tissue holder is so cute. Perfect small paradise. I missed out Yun sunset Sa sobrang antok ko. I fell asleep for 4 hours, 9pm Na pala.

So I have to wake up early morning to check the view. No wifi no fon signal anu ba Gagawin ko "play ng games" at watch movies Sa I touch. I forgot charger Ni surface at si notebook pen at book 

Dinner was so good squid in lemongrass butter & calamansi "why not". Side dish super Sarap din. Sabi nga "the price is right"





I spent 3D/2N in this resort, no tv just the fan with mosquito net.  Open window sa gabi sobrang comfortable.   Relaxing ang place 'coz sa veranda may double size bed, sarap magrelax.  

Early mornings, woke up at 6am to feel the breeze of air on the seaside area.  Sobrang ganda as in parang wala sa Pilipinas.  I love the interior =)    May Buddha by the beach!

Homey, privacy, chillax, good food ... Thumbs up!

Btw, Lauren is very helpful on best places to go.  She even recommended Infinity Resort.   Surprisingly for additional few bucks aircon si Infinity but for me I love U-Story =)
