Philippines - Cebu - Airport Adventure


On the return back to Hong Kong we slept the night in the Airport then endured the entire following day at another... As anyone knows airport prices are extortionate. We certainly got fleeced for food & drink...

HoBo...

Dont Over Pack!!!!

Philippines - Cebu - Malapascua Island - Rooster Rumbles

I honestly didn’t think I would ever witness this... Even though every Sunday, it’s carried out across the nation! Cock Fighting is huge business & along with Boxing & Basketball it's an obsession....


This is a warm up!!!

Philippines - Cebu - Malapascua Island

Initially we were stranded here due to another Typhoon, it rained all the time, paths were water logged & the days where generally greay & dull... Thankfully as soon as the skies cleared, the sun came out the island was transformed...




Not everything is picture perfect...
