Hello to my fellow hivers, hiveians and to the whole Hive community. This quarantine, our way of living has changed a lot and for sure, all of us have our own ways in order to continue our studies, our work and find entertainment to compensate for our boredom. I am sure that all of us really missed going to the malls and go shopping, go to church and express ourselves to our almighty God, go outdoors and hangout with our friends.
The countries are doing their best to produce a vaccine and a medicine for Covid-19. But no one exactly knows when is this gonna be over.
And I am sure that all of us got postponed plans due to the lockdown and for certatin, I know you all are gonna ba doing that plans after the lockdown.
I've got my own plans when this virus will be wiped out. When all of this ends, I would really go to places that I have not gone to and places that I want to visit again.
I just want to share the beautiful places that I want to visit when this lockdown ends and for sure, you might also want to visit these places, especially those who are in Cebu, Philippines.
Go Back again to Basdaku White Beach in Moalboal, Cebu
When all of this is gonna be over, I wanna spend time with my friends on the beach. Enjoying the cool sea breeze, sitting on the sand with liquors beside and talking about crazy things. Have a good time on the beach and enjoying the beach night.
I want to go back there in Basdaku, White Beach Moalboal, Cebu. We went there in Basdaku White beach last year with my college friends. We meet up first at 7-eleven and then we headed to the South Bus Terminal. From there, we rode a bus bound for Moalboal(the bus with a sign Barili or Badian). After more or less 3 hours, we then dropped off at Gaisano Grand Mall Moaboal. The travel duration really depends on the traffic conditions.I suggest that you go there on weekdays than on weekends because the traffic is not that worse. Outside the mall, there are already tricycle drivers waiting for us, it seems like they already know where we are heading to. We then rode a tricycle going to the beach and the fare is 30 pesos per person. As we head to the entrance of the beach, a fee of 5 pesos or 10 (around 0.1 or 0.2 dollars) each person(I really forget) , will be collected. Then, we already reached the Basdaku White Beach.
When we get there, we did really witness the beautiful white sand, the mediterranean blue waters and the very welcoming people. Actually when we get there, we only have just enough money so we decided not to avail cottage or a room and just place our tents on the sand. But the problem is that, our friend, who has tent, have left it in his house so yeah we just planned that we will just be sitting on the sand. Unexpectedly, we saw our classmates from our major class and they share us their cottage and tent. And yes, we are really glad about that because as what they say, the more, the merrier. We then played Kings or the Ring of Fire, where every person has to pick a card and each card( like ace, 1 , 2, 3) has a corresponding action to do. To know it more, you can search it and I can say, that it really is fun. Because of the game, some of us are really unlucky in picking the cards that requires to drink a shot of liquors so they got to drink several shots of liquors. As a result, some of us really got sleepy and some puked real hard while me and some of us just laughed and took a video while they are puking. After a while, we just sit and lie on the sand and just enjoying the relaxing sound of the waves and the beautiful view of the sky.
Of course, food will always be part of the vacation. Don't you worry because there are many inexpensive delicacies on their sari-sari stored and food stalls. In breakfast, fresh baked bread and "puto"(rice cake) with "sikwate"(choco syrup) is already available and you just wait there in your cottage because the vendor will just be roaming around. In the lunch and dinner, you could easily go the food stalls and "karinderyas" and try our filipino delicacies.
Aside from that, when the evening comes, I want to try having a campfire while I and my friends or one of us, will be playing the guitar and just enjoying the music. We will be singing along and on our hands are a bottle of liquors while we're talking about life and funny experiences.
Mountain Trip in Mt. Manunggal Eco Adventure Park
I also wanna go on adventure on the mountains. I wanna experience the fresh mountain air and try camping and just relaxing in the mountains. Actually, I and my friends planned to go to Mt. Manunggal Eco Adventure Park in Balamban, Cebu. My college friends and I want to spend some time on the mountain. We already had planned that when our school year will end, we will be going to have a mountain trip. Unfortunately,this March, when the school year is about to end, coronavirus has gotten worse so our country has to be placed under a community quarantine. And yes, our plan was postponed.
I wanna try Biking on a zipline or Skybiking. I wanna do this with my friends to see their funny,scared faces while I am beside them enjoying the view and their reactions. I am not really afraid of heights. When I was a kid, I am really afraid but I guess, I get used to be on those kind of places so I am not afraid anymore. I even enjoyed watching the view when I am on top of places.
I also wanna try going on a mountain climbing or trekking. I want to go to the peak of the mountain and enjoy the view on the top. Taking photos and capturing the funny moments on that mountain trip. I really have seen several photos of my facebook friends being on top of these rocks and I find it really cool. I am envious to them, so I really wanted to go to this amazing spot.
Actually, I have not tried horseback riding yet because I felt like it seems a bit dangerous and I think that it is real hard to drive or direct a horse. Well, I really wanna try sometime to know how it really feels. My friend did say that you will be instructed how to direct a horse, how to turn left or right or how to stop. Also, if you do not want to be alone, a guide can accompany you while horseback riding. I want to roam around the plain part of the mountains while riding a horse.
Visit Anjo World Again
Last year, we have gone to Anjo World right after our class. Our class may have consumed our energy but who cares, we are going to an amusement park making us feel alive again. We just waited outside our school since there are many buses heading to south just in front of our school. Since we did not really know the exact place of the park, we just told the driver to drop us in Anjo World. We purchased a Super Tres Ticket(3 rides ticket) which costs 180.00 pesos (nearly $4). Since we only have 3 rides to choose, we decided to have 2 extreme rides and 1 relaxing ride.
This is the first ride that we had experience. As we have waited for our turn for the ride, we could really hear the screams of the passengers and we could really see how the pendulum swings back and forth rapidly. One of us is really afraid to ride but we really convince her to ride the boomerang with us. When it is already our turn, the boomerang swings at a slow rate and gradually, its speed increases. I really screamed so hard because it feels like my body is left on the air whenever the boomerang is gonna swing from the top and back to the bottom. I really wanted it to stop because I really wanted to pee,haha. Anyways, after the ride, one of us really felt dizzy and he really puked in the comfort room. We then rest for a while a went to our next ride.
Pharaoh, Spinner Coaster, is our next stop. We really waited for a while in this ride because the waiting line really is long and people are going in groups so some chairs are left vacant. When it is already our turn, the ride move very smooth initially and then it will go up and suddenly, it just spinned and we did not really noticed it( You can not notice how the coaster goes because you will be facing two people and one person is beside you). And in the sudden spinning of the coaster, I really did see the shocked face of one of my friends and it really is very funny. If ever I have superpowers and take photos with my eyes, I am gonna show it to you. And for sure, you're gonna laugh hard. And yes I really laughed hard. The ride is full of sudden twists and turns but it really ends so fast. If you try it, you could really say thay you want to try it again.
Last stop is the Ferris Wheel. We choose this because we really had enough with the extreme rides that we had. We sat inside the Ferris Wheel chamber for about 10 minutes. The chamber was really spacious because maximum of 4 people is allowed and also it really is relaxing because of the cool air inside. We just talk about random stuff and funny experiences that we had while riding on those 2 extreme rides that we had. We took some pictures while inside and just enjoying the view on the top. Unfornately, I lost my phone so I lost all the pictures and as you can observe in the Moalboal part of this blog I only have few pictures. I just retrieved those from my messenger and IG stories. But, it does not matter anyway. Memories matter more than those photographs that we have. But it's still good to have pictures though, haha:)
