coming from airport, i just brought my bagage to our house in Antipolo and after a light breakfast i headed out again. i got an errand to do in Ortigas, in Greenhills, in Ayala, and Mandaluyong. a pretty hectic day i got there...:D with all that i mentioned, believe me i still managed to have a sidetrip in MOA. i had coffee with peeps i met last summer...it always feel nice to get to know other people and it is so amazing that you can share laughters and even tears with those people you've just met once. i like that feeling of lightness towards others...yun bang parang you can talk everything under the sun like topics are neverending...hehe (too bad walang picture hehe) an encounter we all don't know if there a second time...hahaha.

Sky Experience Adventure @ Crown Regency Hotel and Towers

This is the highlight of their last day in Cebu, and of course for me as well who experienced it for the first time!

Oh only for the four of us since our two companion are both scared of heights.  They didn't even think about it, it was a big NO right away! 

As for me that would always want to experience new things, I didn't let this chance to pass.  Crown Regency Hotel and Towers is one of the tallest building in the country and just started its operation 3 years ago.  It is a 38-storey building that made its top floor into an amusement facility which includes a roller coaster that runs around the edge of the building and a stroll with a safety protection of a harness.

Picture Perfect! Amazing view up there!

Sure thing we were all a little nervous, me nervous but excited at the same time.  Even when we were not yet starting to walk, I felt some tickling rush coming from my feet up to my head.  I said this is it, no backing out!

Skywalker look!

City Stroll - CNT and SM City Cebu

Their last day in Cebu.  After a short rest at home, we took them first to the best lechon resto in town. Before we start our City Tour at least they are energized again and ready to beat the summer heat of Cebu outside.

Bantayan Island - Day 1 3.05.09

We are staying for 2 nights 3 days in the Island. We booked at Budyong Beach Resort. It offers a cottage type accommodation.  They got an aircon and non-aircon cottages.  The resort is situated right on the middle of Bantayan's Beaches.

by the entrance of the resort

After checking in, everybody did not wasted a time to take picture even just before changing.  We chose to get the beachfront so we can enjoy the scenery at any time from our position.  There were still few people at the time we arrived.  Maybe still sleeping? 

this is our air-conditioned  cottage and we love this hammock

our beachfront look at that beautiful sandbar

few more clicks and a quick dip and then time for lunch!

While we were in the beach, a man selling seafoods offered us his goods and told us that it is alright to ask the resort to cook it for us.  So we just bought some fish, crabs and a squids then ask the resort to cook it for us. Bantayan Island first treat for us.  We just had a super fresh and delicious lunch on our first day.

lunch at the resort restaurant

After were done with our lunch. They chill for a bit and hit the beach again.  Did some photos and prepare for their Island Tour.  But before that they visited first Ogtong Cave which is also in Sta. Fe.  By the way, Bantayan Island have only 3 municipalities.  Sta Fe, Bantayan and Madridejos.  Look at this Island Map.  .

this was their mission in their 1st afternoon in the Island.  explore it by only riding a motorcycle.

TOP 03.04.09

viewing deck and the bee-hive-like ground

the gang

Last destination of the day before dinner. TOP or TOPS is one of the tourist here in Cebu.  It is located in Busay.  It is just about 30 mins drive from IT Park.  It is about 2000 above sea level so from there you can see the whole City of Cebu.  It was just in time for sunset (though good sunset cannot be seen here) and they still got the chance to see the city in daylight from the top.  Stayed there for 30 minutes I think. Just took some snap shots and had a short snack while we enjoy the cold wind.

Here are some photos taken at the place.

After Top, we went to Larsian Fuente Osmena for dinner.  Larsian this is where the best place for bbq and puso (hanging rice) in town. Everyone super enjoyed the dinner. 

enjoyed their first larsian experience where they only used hands only covered with plastic :)
