Going Around Bohol

Every trip that Ken and I had occupies a special place in our travel-thirsty hearts but our recent trip to Bohol is our very first "just-the-two-of-us-trip" and that made it even more special. As promised in my travel video post (Watch it here), let me take you to a virtual trip to one of Visayas' gems.

(From top to bottom: Blood Compact, Hanging Bridge, Man-Made Forest, xZOOtic Animal Park, Butterfly Sanctuary)

Another famous spot is Bohol Bee Farm, a resort and restaurant which promotes an organic lifestyle from the food that they serve to their architectural designs (their walls and floors are made of coconut shells).
They also serve home-made Ice Cream. We tried their Malunggay Ice Cream and I soooo loved it that I almost forgot to leave some for my Mister. HAHAHA! 

We even had a mini field trip as we were toured around the resort. I'm so amazed by how they strive to make the environment a healthier place which left me thinking "Sana ganito din sa Manila". Bravo to the Bohol Bee Farm peeps!        


  

   
Just in time for lunch, we went to Loboc's Floating Restaurant. Though the food was just so so, I would still tag it as a Must-Try in Bohol. You get to eat all you can while cruising along Loboc River and being entertained by folk dancers and singers along the way. That's definitely an experience to remember. 



And then, we finally met one of the smallest primates on earth. Note: Ken didn't really touch that 16-year-old-tarsier. He's not that brave to do that. Hehehe!

And of course, a trip to Bohol won't be complete without visiting the oh-so-chocolatey-hills. Insert some drama here: "Dati sa picture ko lang sila nakikita. Ngayon, ako na ngpi-picture sa kanila!!!" Okay, enough of the drama. Hehehe! You just have to prepare to climb the stairs to reach the deck to have a magnificent view of the Chocolate Hills but believe me, it's really worth your 200-plus steps and your pawis. hihihi!

Thanks for visiting my site. I'd love to hear from you.
