Sky Experience Adventure at Crown Regency Hotel, Cebu City

After the delicious lunch, again we rode the jeepney bound to Fuente Osmena for the Sky Experience Adventure at Crown Regency Hotel.  Because I'm afraid of heights, I had second thought in this Edge Coaster Ride and Skywalk. But since I'm already in Cebu I want to experience it also. JoAnn and Roel back-out. That's why Seysey is crying!  The crying lady! Eventually, Seysey and I are the brave one!  For rates and other inquiries: http://www.skyexperienceadventure.com/ Tower 1, Crown Regency Hotel and Towers, Fuente Towers, Fuente Osmeña Blvd., Cebu City, 6000 Philippines Telephone Nos.: (032) 418 - 8888 / (032) 418 - 7777 Monday - Friday (Open from 2pm till 12mn) Saturday - (Open from 10am till 2am) Sunday -...

Where to Eat in Cebu: CnT Lechon, Cebu City

We went to SM Cebu to freshen up. we left AJ at a playground for 1 hour so we can take our lunch.  Too bad! bawal ang lobo sa loob ng mall.  When in Cebu, you must taste the Cebu Lechon! Just across the street from SM you can find CnT Lechon. The facade of the restaurant looks like parking lot.  We ordered 1 kilo for the 4 of us. 1 kilo is P360.  Lechon Cebu taste a little bit salty. Pero masarap talaga siya compare sa lechon sa Pampanga kasi pati yung laman malasang-malasa. Wala nga lang ng nakasanayang sarsa. Suka at toyo ang sa Cebu. We really enjoyed our lunch at CnT. *Tip - Be there around 11am to avoid long queues as many people are dining at C...

Where to Stay in Cebu: Golden Valley Hotel, Cebu City

 As I've mentioned, we were suppose to stay at Sampaguita Suites but due to some misunderstanding, we are now here at Golden Valley Hotel in Pelaez Street, Cebu City. The security guard and the receptionist greeted us warmly. Because we were so tired, we didn't have time to take a picture of the room. We got the Family room (triple occupancy) for P1,595 and just paid for the extra person charge for P400.

  Next stop is the Plaza Independencia and Fort San Pedro. From Casa Gorordo we just rode the jeepney.  Plaza Independencia is one of Cebu's historical remains from the Spanish Era. Its location captures Cebuanos and tourists since it is near the Port of Cebu.

It was elevated as a metropolitan archdiocese on April 28, 1934 with the dioceses of Dumaguete, Maasin, Tagbilaran, and Talibon as suffragans.
