Island hopping!
The day started out with my mom waking up me up at ten in the morning; it was Tuesday. She told me we were going to the beach… "What? We’re going to the beach? Umm… Okay! =P" I went down for breakfast, something was different though. My aunt and uncle from Manila’s here! =D The thing is we don’t have any relatives here in Cebu, so it’s a bit of a big occasion. =)
We left for Mactan at 12 and took a quick stop at Ayala before that. We took one of those bangkas (or whatever you call those native boats! The one with ‘wings’ =P). We took the boat to this restaurant situated right in the middle of the sea! And there are a lot of Koreans there. Haha We began handpicking the seafood freshly caught from the waters below us. We had some scallops, crabs, squid and some fish. My dad started complaining though about the slow service, it took us half an hour to get our beer and they weren’t even cold!
After a few minutes the food came and we finally got what we wanted… cold beer! The wait was completely worth it; nothing tastes better than fresh seafood. =D After finishing our meal, this bassist and guitarist came… Music! My uncle requested for a song, the "Magellan" song! He joined in the song; oh yeah, did I mention he’s like the "choir master" (or however you call it) at church. Then he sang a Frank Sinatra song… He was unstoppable!
In the end, he finally finished. We went off to Bantayan! =D Since the time I woke up, I decided not to swim. Just in case, I placed my phone in the bag because I wanted to sit at one of the boat’s "wings". Here’s a pic!
That’s me hanging at the wing. =P
After sitting around, I tried walking at the edge of the wing without holding anything. Guess what? I fell! =P That’s when I decided to swim, Haha. That’s when I realised "Oh my God! I still have my wallet" Here’s a pic. That’s my wallet I’m holding =)
After the beach we went off home to rest. A few hours later, we went off to Lai Garden (home of Cebu’s best siomai =D). After a hearty meal, we went of to Aziza for a drink. I finally get to try a Singapore sling! Haha
We ended our day with a nice massage before going to sleep… =)
