Cebu City
-Jan, 2010-
It's my second time in Cebu and my opinion of the city does not change. I am still closer to nature and cities simply don't appeal to me as much. Still, Cebu has its own charm. We stayed at a cheap hotel for our last night. We would use it merely for sleeping anyway. We chose a hotel at the center of the city. It was a mere walking distance towards Magellan's Cross, our first stop after eating lunch.

Having my cousin Janice around was an advantage. She had a close friend, Jonel, who resided at Cebu. He picked us up and was our transportation from then on. Our next stop was the Taoist temple but it was already closed so we had our pictures taken outside the temple instead.
From there we went to the Edge Coaster and Sky Walk. It was time to conquer our fear of heights. Ira did not try any of the rides though, she waited for us to finish.
We first tried the edge coaster. You just had to sit on rides and you could tilt yourself downwards towards the edge of the building to have a real feel of the heights. I did not tilt myself as much though but I loved how the wind swept at my face out there.
Now for the finale, the Sky Walk. Ate Janice was so scared she barely moved.
Dinner ensued at Larshan's. We had puso for our rice and everything barbecued. I enjoyed our dinner.
To finish the night off, we had a girls night out at Cebu's The Walk. It just so happened that in one of the bars there, we met a couple of Nutri-Asia peeps (colleagues). We joined them and even met JSB. We hanged out chatting, with JSB mostly till late in the evening before heading back to our hotel having SML.
Our flight was due after lunch by the next day. We did enjoy the city before leaving for Manila.
