Just last month, my family and I spent an unforgettable six-day vacation in Bohol. We did the first part of our Countryside tour as soon as we arrived at Tagbilaran Airport. Why? To save time and money! I got that tip from my online friends. That’s what tourists usually do since taking a taxi from the airport to any resort is really pricey. :car:

Anyway, our flight via Cebu Pacific was delayed for more than an hour so we arrived there at around 10:30 AM. Kuya Tatsky, our super nice driver and tour guide, was patiently waiting for us at the exit. And as requested, he immediately toured us around Bohol.

Our first stop was at Dumaluan Beach Resort where we had our early lunch. Dumaluan is one of the most popular beaches on Panglao Island. It has a nice beach front. The sand, as expected, is powdery white. Its public resort has a couple of nipa huts standing a few meters away from the beach. :hearty:

The weather was a bit uncooperative that day. It was raining a little eventhough the sun was shining. Unbelievable! :sigh:

After eating, we headed to Bohol Bee Farm Resort and took lots of pictures. This resort is popular for its organic products and restaurant that promotes healthy living. Everything they sell in their shop is made of veggies and they offer free food tasting! From home-made malunggay spread to salabat to squash muffins – name it! I ended up buying two packs of tablea coz it’s my favorite chocolate drink. Its aroma was undoubtedly enticing. Love it! :7:

A great spot for sun bathing and swimming at the cliff…The view from the farm was magnificent! k:

If you wanna go swimming, you need to go down from the wooded platform. The beach is a combination of corals and sand. But I won’t advise anyone traveling with kids to stay at this resort because the beach has no shore at all. Kids will be scared to swim.

We also visited the Hinagdanan Cave, Mag-aso Falls, Inambacan Cave and Spring, Punta Cruz Watch Tower and Dauis Church that day. But I’ll post about them next time. :bleh:

Just in case you’re wonderin’ why I don’t have my December blog entries anymore, they’re permanently gone. As I mentioned before, my host had a major system crash last month that’s why this blog was down for more than two weeks. Unfortunately, the last back-up I did was in November (I thought it was last July which is a good thing na rin). So all the posts and changes I made on this blog after the said month were gone. All your comments were deleted as well. Sad, I know. :sigh:

The blogs I linked in December might have been gone too so please check your blogs if they’re still listed here. If not, let me know so I can add them again. My apologies.

I’m finally done uploading all our vacation photos to my Multiply account. Click here to view them.

Anyway, I’m still very busy with work that’s why I can’t blog about our recent trip yet. Bohol is such an interesting place. Needless to say, it’s amazingly beautiful. You’ll miss half of your life if you don’t go there. I swear.

If you’re planning to go there in the future, let me know and I would be happy to send you the details of our travel expenses and itineraries.

Sorry if I still can’t update this blog. I’m super busy with work!

Have a nice day!
