Tabor Hills

A blast from the past. I once visited Tabor Hills in Talamban Cebu City. Here are few snaps that I had using my Alcatel camera phone last December of 2009.

Catholics usually visit this place during Holy week.

Chocolate Hills

This is our very first family vacation since I left home to work in Cebu. The very first trip for 5 years where we're complete. I so thank God for this day!

Few snaps from Bohols' Chocolate Hills last 10.21.2010 using a point and shoot camera.

Ready to go up?

wish you were here with me

Cebu's Larsian Barbecue

Cebu's Larsian has been my all time favorite barbecue haven when I was in Cebu. I am a super fan of barbecue. For almost 5 years staying in Cebu, my palate has been accustomed to Larsian barbecue's taste. Now that I have left Cebu for good, I will never miss a chance to dine in Larsian every time I visit Cebu City.

This has been our favorite after work dating place when I was with that special someone before (hahaha). Hmmm Cebu you'll always be a part of me. 

Taken during my latest visit in Cebu last 10.20.2010. Cebu's Larsian is located beside Chung Hua Hospital in Fuente Cebu City

My all time favorite!


Thanks Dimlight Barbecue

Took the pictures using a simple point and shoot China Made digital camera.

Starbucks Coffee Finally in CDO!

Finally! Starbucks

an amateur shot from Nique.. checking out the new tumblers

hmmmm the Christmas blends...





Finally Starbucks is here. Eventhough it's in CDO, I'm happy that I don't have to fly to Cebu when I crave for one. I have my little booklet now, I hope I can get the planner. But even if I won't, the taste of Starbucks coffee will always be in my favorite coffee list.

Starbucks Coffee House is in Limketkai Business Center in front of McDonalds. See you there!

Banana Cue (Sweetened Fried Banana on stick)

Banana cue and Camote Cue a Filipino all time favorite snack.
Banana cue (Sweetened Fried Banana on stick) and Camote Cue (Sweetened Fried Sweet Potato on stick) is a Filipino all time favorite snack. It's budget friendly too. Now a days it costs Php 5.00 to 10.00 per stick. 

During the All Saints day we bought around 20 sticks for snacks while in the cemetery visiting the grave of Grandpa and GrandMa in the Clean and Green City of Oroquieta.

Explore Balicasag Island

 Exploring the underwater world of Balicasag Island. This is one of the must try and must go places if you'll be visiting Panglao Island in Bohol. Visiting the Island is part of the island tour package that Kuya Dodong offered. However, snorkeling is optional. Majority of the tourist would not try snorkeling, but I tell you this is one of the fun part during the trip. Swimming with the fishes, touching them and most of all having pictures with them. I highly recommend you bring a underwater/waterproof digital camera or purchase a disposable or reusable underwater film camera from Bohol, because it's already x3 from the original price when you'll but it in the island.

In this photo, we used a Kodak disposable underwater film camera.

If your planning to have a vacation in Panglao Island Bohol, you may want to get Kuya Dodong's island tour services. You may contact him through mobile 0908.153.4117. We got the island tour  for only Php 2000 and that's good for 6 already. The boat is medium size and clean. They also have snorkeling equipments available for rent but I would recommend to bring your own if you have one.
