Travel

Our flight to the Manila in the Philippines was only half an hour late. However, we then had to wait about 5 hours to connect to another island, Cebu in the Visayas.

The flight to Cebu came and went. We arrived, grabbed a taxi and headed across Cebu City to the southern bus station. The taxi ride was really far but so cheap compared to Bournemouth!

We immediately caught the next bus leaving for the tiny village by the sea,Moalboal. We were getting fairly tired from travelling and hungry too!

Luckily, a man got on the bus selling his freshly made ... Dunkin' Donuts! We couldn't resist and a bag was purchased! Darryl enjoyed them, whilst watching English movies on the bus. Whilst Christine pretty much slept the whole journey!

The bus driving had intensified and we were glad to arrive. A food stop was calling and we enjoyed a local Philippine dish, as we needed the energy. Next, we caught a tricycle (tuk tuk) to the beach. Moalboal has one of the top dive sites in the Philippines, even the world, and we are itching to explore this underwater world!
