TRAVEL | Appreciating the church and surrounding attractions of Boljoon, Cebu

Image
The full moon (well, almost) rising early over the Boljoon church. It was Palm Sunday, in Roman Catholic tradition the start of the Holy Week. We missed the last mass and the church doors were already closed, but the plaza outside was still pulsating with life--kids playing, people strolling, a couple of others on either bicycles or motorcycles, and food vendors attending to customers. What a lovely scene, I thought. Envious of photos Kwittiegirl had shown me before from her past trip to Boljoon , I've been meaning to visit this town in South Cebu for about three years now. Darkness was just around the corner, so we proceeded to at least go around the old church and save the interiors for another day.

TRAVEL | A quick look around Sorsogon City

Image
The beauty of the sunset afterglow. We took to Sorsogon City over the recent Labor Day long weekend not for anything really but to stay at the lovely Siama Hotel . Well, we did book a little island-hopping trip in Matnog , which was several kilometers away but still part of Sorsogon province. Before that, though, we decided to have dinner at some place in the city and hired a tricycle to also take us around town.
