I'm heading back to Cebu/Bohol for my 2nd trip.
My 1st trip was more of a "date 5 women" and see if any are worth starting a relationship with, and it was very promising.
After my return I started a "relationship" with the one girl from Manila, but that turned bad when she realized that I want nothing to do with Manila. She also was extremely jealous and very short tempered. Needless to say I dumped her and moved on to another prospect which I never stopped communicating with since my trip. In fact after I thought about it I should have picked her from the start. The only reason I didn't is because she is "married" but in the process of annulment. She has a hearing on 9/27 with Judge for her case. I'll believe it when I see it.
Moving forward we chat daily on Skype I am flying into Cebu to see her for a week. I fly in late Saturday night. We are staying 2 nights at the Mandarin Plaza by Ayala Mall. It was only $40 per night with free breakfast. I never been before but figured I would start trying out a few different hotels. Then we depart on Supercat to Tagbilaran for 3 nights in Alona Beach at the Lost Horizon Beach Annex $33 per night but no breakfast. Then coming back to Cebu for 2 nights at the Wellcome Hotel at Ayala too. Same price of about $40 per night with free breakfast. I will review all hotels in my TR.
Here is the kicker.................. I avoided all advice and WU my girl 10K php...........................
She didn't ask & didn't want.............. WTF!!!
I figured since it was going to be a big deal to meet all her family (23 live in 3 house adjoining). Originally I was going to just take them all out to dinner and thought 10K php was a fair price for a decent meal out. My girl agreed but wanted to look at other options (beach, island hopping etc). I read a post on here about Villa Tresita in Talisay City just south of Cebu. She investigated and the family agrees this would be best ( I guess everyone likes swimming).
Entrance fees are 90php per adult 60php for kids. 600php cottage fee, 50php corkage for cases or drinks and 40php per kilo of food to be cooked. For my 10k php we are getting 24 people into resort, renting a cottage for 25, bringing 4 cases beer & 2 case soda/water, fresh fish, pork, rice, vegetables, lumpia, and fruit salad. The family is also renting a jeepney for the trip from Consolacion to Talisay City. Since they are riding just south of Ayala they will pick us up along the way. We will be walking down Mango so I decided that we would stop at the San Jose bakery and pick up fresh baked goods for the day. The event is planned from 9am to 5pm. Right now she says she still has over 3k php left. After everything I've read this girl must be either crazy or she is truly a "good" girl.
Of course I'm from the "show me" school so I will see when I get there but if she will pull all of this off and give me back 3k php, I think she is worth keeping. by the way she thinks 4 cases of beer is too much cause it will only be 6 men drinking but if Philippines cookouts are anything like American cookouts that 4 cases wont be nearly enough.
While in Bohol I will also check out the Aggenstein character I read so much about and look at his project. I will update with pictures on that too.
Friday morning September 6th I will be somewhere in Cebu watching the season opener of the NFL Ravens vs Broncos, if anyone is in town and interested, let me know.
Sorry, I'm not much of a mongerer but I do love the site and info.
