Sun-Kissed Summer 2013


Another cowboy trip with my awesome friends heading to Moalboal (located at the southern part of Cebu). Unlike the rest of our friends, Eden and I do not have the luxury to plan our summer trips and if we do, that's called a luck! Most friends already went ahead and enjoy the beach and the party at Bantayan (where people in Cebu mostly visit).

As for us, we chose the less crowded beach and made an overnight stay at Basdaku, Moalboal! We were even very lucky to get a beach-front cottage, good for 5 people for only Php 2,000.00! The cottage is composed of 2 rooms with individual rest room, a queen-size bed and a fan. Despite the heat, the temperature inside was still cool and kept you sweat-free!
I'm ready to swim with my camo trunks!
I am truly blessed with these people and how we made our quick trip wickedly awesome!!! ILY guys!

Quick sun bathing before hitting the beach!
Swimming time!!!
Is it just me or Ced looks fat here...teehee!
My one and only Eden! I miss you already loves! See you soonest!
All we need is just one kiss!
The beach is calling me...
I was born from the beach and just being near it makes me glow and shine like a diamond. LOL! Our trip did not end there. We went to this very intimate Beach Resort called Hale Manna and I was surprised how lovely this place is. Hale Manna is THE perfect place if you want to get away from the city-stress and just rest in their cozy environment. You may also do some flexing by trying their kayak. Thanks to Dale for inviting us!
Hale Manna's house rules and reminders.
This place is just wonderful! The perfect place to meditate and relax!

Heart-shaped white sand.
Perfection!!!
Below are the photos of the room that Dale and family took. There are 2 queen-size bed, 1 single bed , a huge rest room (seriously, it's like a walk-in closet and still has an extra space for gym equipment).
The bed...
The other bed...The room is actually air-conditioned so I honestly don't know why there is an electric fan here. lol!
Cedric sitting on the single bed.
...and it's time to do some flexing!!!
Come, sit on me and enjoy the sound of the beach while you slowly stroke the paddle and glide with me.
Cedric on the lose! :D
Eden and Dale with there big smiles!
Time to relax and eat after kayaking... :D



What a worth-while weekend indeed! I'm very excited for the next trip to come!

Whale Shark (Butanding) Experience in Oslob

So much for an active blogger! LOL! I'm deeply sorry for being such a whimp and not posting new stuff here. I just got too hooked up at work. I need to prioritize work for my basic necessities. Hihihi!

Anyways, this is a post of my first time encounter with the whale sharks (a.k.a. Butanding) and it was a day spent well. This trip was like months ago when a friend from Melbourne came to visit the Queen City of the South.

We decided to go to 3 lovely spots in one day. We first went to Oslob since it was advised that we need to be there early in the morning. I was able to get a contact and had ourselves reserved for the whale shark experience.

You may contact Alice at 09228412633 for reservation and inquiry.

Helping the local with our boat.
Butandings here we come!
Our first sighting of  the whale shark. There were 3 of them during our trip.
I couldn't stop myself from jumping in the sea.  
This is the closest photo I have with the whale sharks and I am way satisfied! :D
More photos below:

This was when we lost track of the whale shark the boatmen were shouting it's underneath us!!! LOL!
We started our trip with too much adrenaline rush so we ended up relaxing on our next stop: The Kawasan Falls at Badian
Our cute cottage in Kawasan Falls.
Great shot!
Group photo! :D (I, Eden and Jason)
Listening to the sound of the falls just makes my body float...such a relaxing place indeed.

Lastly, we went to Moalboal for a quick deep and to watch the beautiful sunset.
Basdaku, Moalboal -- the white sand here is like Boracay's sand.
Enjoying the beach!
Underwater shot!
Wacky!
And here it is...the sunset.
What a trip! I wish to do this again with these 2 partner in crimes! Good vibes!
