Cebu Weekend Getaway with my BabySis

Touchdown: CEB 1530

It's my first OOT trip with my babysis. Our flight was delayed due to technical problems so we had some last minute change of itinerary. 

This was our first shot at the airport while waiting for boarding.


After checking in at Crown Regency Towers, we (me and Leli) galloped away to Ayala mall to wet our lips with Cebu Lechon. 


It was almost 6 pm so it was an early dinner for us. After a mouth watering dinner, we grabbed ourselves slices of our somekinda favorite cakes at Dessert Factory at the Terraces.


We didn't eat alone. We were with smurfey. :)

We stayed at the Terraces for a few hours and went back to the hotel for a warm bath and some good chats before we closed the curtains goodnight. 


Next day was a big day. We started our morning with a breakfast at Brown Cup at IT park, visited the Sto Nino basilica, Magellan's cross and Taboan Market.




After immersing ourselves with Cebu pollution and absorbing the scent of danggit from the fish market, we went back to the hotel to freshen up and started our sky adventure.




As seen above, we tried the combo 3 (Tower Zip and Sky lift combined with Edge coaster and Sky walk).

After checking out, we went straight to Plantation Bay in Mactan (45 minutes from Mandaue).

We biked around the resort after checking in and showed my sister the attractions and activities available for us.

We parked our bikes near the cafe and had our second full meals of the day.


Next stop: Aqua Sports Area

We rented a jetski and roamed around the adjacent resorts with Leli trying the motorbike first, then ended up being my passenger.









Next activities: Swimming and Kayaking




We also had some photo shoots within the resort.



Next stop: Dinner at Casa Verde in Ramos.

We initially tried the one in Ayala Terraces but because of the long waiting time, we decided to transfer to Ramos. While waiting for our ride, we grabbed our favorite donuts at Krispy Kreme near the pick up/drop off area of Ayala mall.

After 11 groups, dinner's finally served. :)



Next stops: Mactan shrine, Magellan Marker, then Tops :)




So how's the weather in Manila, Nigga? Lol. It was so damn freezing cold up there. Brrrrrrrrrrrr.

So was it a short trip? Yes it was, but was fun-filled.

We closed the trip with loads of pancakes, bacons and sausages.


Until our next trip! Ciao! ;)
