Philippines - Cebu - Day 1

To do: Bohol Day Tour Upon our arrival at 4 am, our friend picked us up from the airport to drop us off cruise centre for our boat ride to Bohol island. Its an hour boat ride and we are really tired from our overnight flight. Fortunately for us, we are booked on the VIP seats and the seating is huge and comfy, allowing us to catch the much needed fifty winks. Most importantly, the upper deck VIP seats have security assigned considering that we have all our luggage in tow. Our assigned driver is at the harbour to pick us for our day tour around the island. While the person is familiar with the areas, his car rim is uneven which creates a lot of noise while we are on the road. Fortunately, it doesn't make our road trip any bumpier. Communication is slightly difficult to our dismay as the driver/guide knows only a smattering of English. So we just pass our list of sights to him and he drove us around. I am a little unhappy with him since he said he bring us around according ...

A Beach Wedding in Bohol Perhaps?

I chanced upon another wedding while vacationing at Bohol Beach Club. The ambiance as well as the sweet decorations reminds me of the beach wedding i had wished i had. The splendid sea views makes this place a perfection location for saying your vows by the sea, stars and moon. Bohol Beach Club A spacious reception area for guests to mingle before the wedding. Reception Stage to say your vows The red carpet and guest sitting The wedding in process As this is just a private wedding affair, this is as much pictures i could take without intruding. The hut that you can see in the last picture "the wedding in process" is an indoor area with seatings for the guests and where dinner is served. There's plenty of room for dancing after the dinner. From what i can judge, everyone clearly enjoyed the wedding. What's more at the end of the party, the guests are also treated with a grand fireworks display. So much for ending the night with a BAN...
