Photo AlbumDay 1: The Cebu City Tour 02 (49 photos)Sep 18, '08 7:16 PM
for everyone

The City reminded me of Manila – Quiapo-Avenida part of Manila… lalo na ang Colon Street (Sayang wala akong pictures of the street due to some matters). This Album will give you a glimpse of the Cathedral Museum, Taoist Temple and Ayala Mall Cebu. The Taoist temple is quite similar to the one found in Baguio City too.

 

:: The Church and Convent of Sto. Niño

:: The Church and Convent of Sto. Niño Museum

:: Magellan’s Cross

:: Metropolitan Cathedral (Hindi masyadong ornate at medyo modern ang architecture details sa loob - mostly faux ang mga detail sa labas pero convincing from a distance)

:: The Cathedral Museum (Pwedeng mag picture sa first floor only)

:: Taoist temple (Tandaan bawal kunan ng picture ang mga Gods and Goddesses sa loob ng temples)

:: Ayala Center Cebu: Roma Mia (Dinner) - Hay naku mabagal ang service at hanggang sa pagbibigay ng bill mabagal padin hmf


Part 2: (I have divided the album into two due to the number of photos) 

Photo AlbumDay 1: The Cebu City Tour 01 (43 photos)Sep 18, '08 11:22 AM
for everyone


Using the free travel guide in the airport and asking people on the way these are the places I have visited in my first afternoon in the Queen City of the South. (Jeepney mode lahat ito except on the way down to the Taoist temple kasi mahirap maghantay ng sasakyan). The City reminded me of Manila – Quiapo-Avenida part of Manila… lalo na ang Colon Street (Sayang wala akong pictures of the street due to some matters)

 

:: The Church and Convent of Sto. Niño (Madaling mahanap at siyang tunay na maaalala mo ang Quiapo kung saan pipilitin rin ng mga vendors na bumili ka ng bulaklak at kandila at tutusukin/tutusukan/kakabitan ka ng kung anu-anong stampita at pins)

:: The Church and Convent of Sto. Niño Museum (sa paghahanap sa Magellan's Cross na nasa mapa ay napunta kami dito - interesting exhibit sayang di pede magpicture sa loob)

:: Magellan’s Cross (Sa wakas ang nakatagong Shrine na ito ay nasa loob pa pala - right after the School Building sa side ng Basilica - mahirap magpicture dito in fairness lols - I miss Kalai hahaha)

:: Metropolitan Cathedral

:: The Cathedral Museum

:: Taoist temple (Still uploading pics)

:: Ayala Center Cebu: Roma Mia (Dinner)

Photo AlbumIlocandia tour: Vigan sa Umaga (44 photos)Aug 16, '07 1:45 AM
for everyone

Day three: This is the fifth album of My Ilocandia tour (with Pat and Karla), This album will cover the walk in Crisologo Street after the sudden rain in the evening . Ang Calle Crisologo sa umaga ay kakaiba sa gabi, tila isang bagong lugar. Ang aking napansin sa lugar na ito ay tila nakita ko na ito dati. Magkahalintulad ang ilang mga arkitektura at paraan ng pagkaka-ayos ng mga edificio sa lugar na ito at sa aking bayang Malabon (I'll try to post pics so that you may cross reference) Isang interesanteng araw at nakakawala ng pagod (kahit na pagod)!
