Cebu
I got by ferry , from Manila . It took 24 hours to get Cebu . The ferry was very comfortable , they gave me a bed and food three times per day . As prison breakfast , lunch and dinner after a big line . A little rice and chicken , for free . If you want more , you had to pay extra . Nothing to do in the ferry , eating and sleeping .
To get Cebu , downtown , I took two jeepneys . Marcus , my host , picked me up . Marcus was very friendly and hospitable guy . I spent two days with him . First day , I went to downtown , by myself . I really liked local markets .
Cebu is a big city . Aproximately , 4 000 000 people . Many cars , street markets , jeepneys . People speak bisayan , its different to tagalo . Cebu is the largest city in Bisayas . The best plan was , on Sunday . Marcus , invited me for a birthday party .
They rented a boat , the whole day . There were 20 people , mixed between local and foreigners . They were really nice people .
There was everything , beer , alcohol , food … They bought a lechon , small pig . It was really good ! I ate a lot , I knew that in Australia , Im not gonna have the chance to eat like that . We went to a paradise island . It was amazing !! White beach , clear water . The weather was warm and sunny . We were playing voleyball , swimming … Its part of the trip , sometimes , you sleep on the floor a month in a raw and sometimes , you enjoy a luxury day .
On the way back home , the boat stop a little bit . So we could swim and watch the sunset . At night , we got home , we were very tired . It was really nice but hard day . Next day , I spent my last filipino pesos , buying food and I went to the airport by jeepney . I took 4 jeepneys to get the airport . The airport was so small … From Philippines , I was going to Perth for work .
