28 Aug 11: point of direct flights from Shanghai, arguably the Philippines Cebu should be 29, 2: 30 arrive at Cebu airport, but because the aircraft was delayed take-off, so we arrived at Cebu airport is around 3: 30 am.
And fill out the entry form, we almost is finally out of the Cebu airport.Out of the airport, they started looking for Shangri-La airport pickup man, poor man, wait for our nearly one and a half hours.
See out of the airport for Peso 1: 46, we will ask people here to pick up money buy? he suggested we go to the hotel. We sent up the hotel business car, we gave up at the airport of 1 dollar tips, watch out for him very happy.The hotel check in, we will use dollars pesos, here's the exchange rate is 1: 48.8, I watched online mix posts written in the most cost-effective SM is money, so we don't have much change, want to go to the SM for the afternoon.
To the room wash nongnong after the breakfast time, we went downstairs cafeteria, as girlfriend were smoking, so give our outdoor seating, where the breakfast variety many, Japanese, Korean, Chinese and Western cuisine. During breakfast, we find here the Sparrow is not afraid of people, you sprinkle a little bread-grain or grain cake on the Earth, they would rush to grab food to eat, but only just a fertilizer, compared to Shanghai's Sparrow look weak. Breakfast, around the hotel, go in a circle, the last in the swimming pool edges found four chaise, Shangri-La's swimming pool and the sea even in very close, here relax while listening to the ocean atmosphere. Afternoon we went to the very famous SM malls, the first thing is to change pesos, the dollar, the result there and the exchange rate is 1 peso: 48.5, said in Shangri-La change money is the most cost-effective. Also see online friends say change money with denomination larger for cost-effective, but in fact are the same. How much you swap, exchange rates are the same, in the hotel for more convenient, without any formalities, fill in the SM-for-like, such as the list on our English is rather poor, how simple how good. Because the next day I and one of his girlfriend to Mint Island to play, so we changed it a taxi after the peso to the boat pier to buy tickets. A taxi from SM to super cat Terminal is 50 pesos, got there, haven't got off to a group like dockers appearance surrounded us, a little scary that posture. And so we get off, only one person brings us to a counter, inside man took out a quote, we look at is the Peppermint Island Tour quote, we say that we only need to buy tickets, Filipinos this point very well, when they know that we only need to buy a ticket, they will never die chanlan fight adhesive you, will take you directly to buy tickets, due to the round trip time of mint Island, we have a taxi to go to another oj Pier, where we met later become our friend Amy, she ranked ahead of us, me and she appealed to ask some questions, and later she told us tomorrow morning to Mint Island tickets gone, she would go to another Terminal, asked us to do with her, she can drive take us, so we went with her weesam express Terminal, where we bought on the day of the second day, round-trip ticket of Amy's hometown in mint Island, she's to celebrate the birthday of her father back, so she is the third genius from Peppermint to Cebu, buy up votes, Amy asked us then go, we're going to see Magellan Cross and the Cathedral of the Holy Childhood, but also want to go to Karl this market, hear it's cheaper than SM of fruit, Amy said where the market is very confusing, if you have local people to accompany us to the OK, if you two foreigners go, I'm afraid I can't buy anything, she advised us or go to the SM supermarket, rather they are more expensive, we accepted her offer. And then she drove us to the Magellan cross there, let's go there a vow of the Church. We visited the Church and then a taxi back to SM and the other two girlfriends join in SM found a family gas comparison Mong restaurant (Shanghai people eat is like this, look at the restaurant of the crowd, felt so good), Cebu's shopping centre is at the door, so we go a bit anxious, first day didn't buy anything back to the hotel, call from SM 300 pesos is returned to the Shangri-La (General driver asking price is 400-500 pesos). Back to the hotel we hurried to change money.The next morning we got up at 6, wash nongnong after down to breakfast, the ship is 9 points, but 45 minutes to advance, so we go to 7: 15, taxi, hotel have a car, we'll let the front desk help us, they said to 600 pesos, we directly go to the hotel to hire a car, taxi Cebu is small, the old saw a half a day, he asked for 500 pesos, I didn't go, and then, finally wait until 300 pesos, we arrived at the boat pier, probably around 8 o'clock yesterday to buy tickets for local check our seats, a young man is very enthusiastic and we said hello, I think yesterday we here to buy tickets in time to see him, and so we check after the young man takes us into the waiting room, in a form to fill in our name, from where, and so on, my girlfriend and I said, it is estimated that if the boat was wrong, they can know what people were killed, HA HA!, Amy came very late, soon on the boat, the girlfriend of seasickness, medicine, in the boat has been in bed, I and Amy began chatting, I asked her if she knew she was in Shanghai, that don't know, I am very depressed, now almost no place for people who don't know, I said that Shanghai Shanghai is a city of fashion, you should come to Shanghai, she told me she thought that China is a very poor (in fact, many have been to China of foreigners think China is a very poor, very poor countries, their Governments only promote Chinese is not good, never describes China's good place, it is contempt for them), in fact, Shanghai do not know how much better than Cebu, of course, I can't speak with Amy, and I'll keep her introduction to Shanghai, like he is the image of Shanghai
Ambassador. 1 hour 45 minutes passed quickly, Amy help us in mint found a driver when we landed, the driver will just be waiting for us, we bid farewell and Amy, they started Mint Island Tour, we took a Nissan cars, 2500 pesos, we do not know the price of expensive or cheap, in short to chocolate hills are indeed the full distance. Our first tour Krobo River, in the ship to eat lunch buffet, 300 pesos a person, it is not good, I eat this usually is not very sophisticated people are eating. Of course, come out to play, not only to eat, the ship's atmosphere is very good, feel happy, a Filipino singer sang in front of the familiar English country songs, go to the Philippines tourism of Korea were many, singer also sing 2-3 first Korean songs. Swim River, we went to the famous chocolate hills, good far Oh, away for a long time to get there, the ticket is a person, good 50P bargain. Drivers give us half an hour tour of the chocolate mountains, we climb the viewing platform to see the surrounding hills, like chocolate, unbroken KISSE, has a lot of character. Half an hour later, the driver time to meet us, last stop, go to the glasses monkey. Ever seen a post on glasses monkey photos, feel a bit like ET, a bit scary, but it got there, see these little guys, feel good and lovely, really like. After bought some glasses monkey refrigerator magnets, the price now, I saw a post is written, but now 100P5 has risen to a point price 25P, or not. Back to Cebu, they are the other two girlfriends carved up the four. But I didn't think of is when we put the glasses monkey refrigerator magnets for Shanghai's relatives and friends, even someone because they feel scary and don't give up. 4 p.m., the driver took us to the pier, we take a 4: 30 in the shipping back to the Cebu, girlfriend or wait for us at SM. After disembarkation, we want to call a taxi, results, etc. There's a taxi to see these aliens, resolutely refused to play the table, the Terminal to the estimated maximum 60P SM, may also not be. Of course you wouldn't play table, I wouldn't sit in your car. We will pass by taxi, the results to a car battery (usually in Shanghai is in the Park and the type of car), I asked where to go, the result is to go to the SM, I asked how much money a position is bus passengers said that "free" I immediately called my girlfriend fast, very successfully reached the SM, good luck man. Or in the restaurant yesterday's dinner, where the waiter also have known us, when we point and mango juice, he asked us to do with ice, anyway, in the Philippines, gives people the feeling is very comfortable, Filipinos are very friendly to people. Dinner 8: 00 end has been fast, quickly go to the supermarket to buy some fruit and mango stem back to the hotel in a hurry.The third day, was finally sleep wake up a natural feel, but because of too late, so breakfast was nothing fancy, breakfast, girlfriends went swimming pool play, I don't know how to swim, just look at their edges, saw many foreign children only a little larger, the parents will take them to the water, let themselves go to swim, I'm off to watch really worried about them, so small, in the case of a tour to the Middle tour did not move, later told me that they can't swim will float on the water, don't worry.
When Amy called to say her afternoon 1: 30 you can go back to Cebu accompanied us to play. In the afternoon we take the hotel's shuttle bus to another AYALA malls, Amy in there for us, AYALA new than SM, feeling a little more upscale than SM, girlfriend is there to buy something, then by AMY recommended a characteristic restaurant in the Philippines, finally ate a Philippine style dinner. The vegetables in the Philippines are very interesting, if you have no special attention, they will certainly be of vegetable and meat together to burn, but in the menu, you see is the name of the vegetable. Supper, girlfriends to go to experience the Philippines massage, then Amy took her husband called, carrying us to find a massage Pavilion in urban areas, the place to let ourselves get Word is not found in any case, called the girlfriend who said to do body massage, Amy and her husband helped us and proprietress on price, they say is Tagalog, so we can't understand, discuss, Amy told me 1 hour 450P, amounting to $ 70 is not that cheap, they do back massage is done on the front, girlfriends said just do, Amy also let the proprietress help we will back to the hotel by car, even the price is also to help us talk about the good, the price is 300P, and reasonable because, usually in the evening we returned to the hotel from the urban area is the price. We are very grateful to Amy, we in the Philippines full 4 days, she accompanied us 3 days, I do not know who really thought that we knew of friends, we are sincerely invited her to come to China to Shanghai to play. Journey back to the hotel to than SM, near to the hotel, the driver asked me if I could add more money, so I gave him 50P. Back to the hotel, only 9 points, went to the pub songs sung by the singers and the Mint island cruise on singing almost, almost all in English, because Korea Korea guest points, so they also songs to sing Korean songs, one of the first is the theme of winter love song ".The fourth day, it is our last day, we decided to stay at the hotel play Sea project, we go to sat junk, the staff recommended that we change the swimsuit is going to play, I think I can't swim, so I didn't change, a sailboat, know your own "medicine", because it is sitting in the boat, sitting place is like braided rope, so when the boat moving forward despite the crest, eggnog is wet, go back to the shore, it becomes just a drowned rat.
Quickly change good bathing costumes, continue to the next project, banana boat. Ride on the banana boat is generally to make people turn to the sea, a girlfriend also can't swim, so it is very afraid of, let me follow we peer over the lifeguard says not to, because I can't swim, so of course I said with a lifeguard, HA HA, this time the trip,Because I'm the only one in four people can speak a little English, and several others have good listening to mine. The last item by parachute, is also the most expensive one project, amounting to $ 500, but not expected so exciting, feel or first two water projects more stimulation, go on the air, we see a panoramic view of the entire island of Cebu and the deep blue sea, endless. But sitting on it feeling very tired, it's good that more than ten minutes. We swap in addition when two friends, suffering under this head, the top of the ship, not for a moment, I am sick of life, and finally realize what seasick. Just wait until the end, we returned to the pool edge and lay down, as it was a Tuesday, I do not know why, the days hotel out of playing guests surprisingly little sea activities until only four people, returned to the pool edge, or a few individuals, we point out two pizza, even for lunch. In the evening, we heard about a hotel nearby seafood restaurant, own groped, Philippine people encountered on the road are very enthusiastic and we greet, however they are we all say "yo" Anita San, we can imagine the Korea, here's the countless people in Korea. The seafood shop before the results after a police station, where the police see we are and we waved Hello, it's very warm and friendly too. Seafood shops as we think so much, only 2 home, we chose a relatively fresh seafood looks a bit, but the price is slightly expensive one. Because we're in the early hours of flight back to Shanghai, as a result, I would like to handle as much as possible out of pesos, US elections seafood, aside for the attendant helped us work out the price, the results are not expensive, than we think to be cheap, but the taste of the vegetables, eat eat normally, or feel that we are the most delicious dishes of China. Back to the hotel to rest for a while went to check out, the front desk of the boy still smiling and greet us, also remind us to stay at the airport to 550P, pay, pay, I forgot. Then all the rest of the peso, not enough to pay off the part we use the US dollar payment, he will also change to us, we say no, where tipping, we gave willingly. Goodbye, goodbye, Philippines Cebu!We take the hotel's private to the airport, a strong man put our luggage from the car gets into a cart, we thought it was the airport staff and wondered how the service is so good, he has helped us put the luggage to the airline check in place, we gave him a dollar, to show his gratitude he pointed to the four of us, meant $ 1 per person, we terminally however can only give up.
But my heart is definitely wrong, and then into the departure lounge, where the staff attitude is also less, the airport is the only one left in our upcoming trip unfortunately places in the Philippines. Although Cebu looks shabby, and the Shanghai didn't completely, but passionate than Cebu people left me with a very good memories.
