Manticao - Cagajan de Oro - Camiguin Island - Another trip to paradise!

Mabuhay! 

During the time in Mindanao Johnny, Glenn, Claire and me had a trip to Camiguin Island. For that pretty close place we needed 7 hours to travel to. By car Johns mum took us to the bus station in Cagajan, which took us approximately 1,5 h. Even if we started at 1 am in the morning the streets was pretty crowded. But when we arrived at the Bus Terminal the journey started for real. We had to pay 150 PHP (philippine pesos) = 3 € each for the ticket to Balingoan, where the ferry to the island deports. 

El Salvador - Divine Mercy Shrine, Jesus just got real!

Mabuhay, 

one of the most classic tourist attractions is the "Divine Mercy Shrine", which is an 15,24 m high statue of Jesus himself. 

The fact, that the Philippines are one of the most christian countries in the world is just materialized in this shrine. The area around Jesus is about nine hectare and it is very beautiful to walk through the gardens . But just check for yourself. 

Here is the crew (Johns's family) ready for the inspection. 

Mindanao - Manticao - Cagayan de Oro - Johns Origin

Mabuhay,

I know it has been quiet a long time for me not to write, but without any internet connection for 10 days it was impossible to keep our adventures updated. So I just sum a little bit up. 

Johnny and me took a Cebu pacific flight from Boracay back to Manila and from Manila directly to Cagayan de Oro, where his family has it's origin. 

Isla de Carabao! - San Jose - Another day in paradise!

Mabuhay, 

yesterday John and me went on a tourist trip around Boracay, including boat sailing, snorkeling and a motorcycle ride. Oh, if I did forgot... drinks, BBQ and snacks were included too!

Spider House - Sundown of dreams

Mabuhay,

today John and me slept quiet long to end up drinking at one of the coolest places I had drinks in my life. We went by Tricycle with our new friends from Brazil and Australia to the Spider House, which is a bar/hotel/restaurant thing. In order to go there we had to drive 10 min and then walk through some rock formations to go to the very end of the island. There we had a wonderful view to the see.

White Beach Boracay - Beaches and Blessings

Mabuhay!

Yesterday was a very lazy day for Johnny and me. We Just had Tocino and Longaniza breakfast and after that we went to the beach.  

Manila - Caticlan - Boracay

Mabuhay,

today was again, surprise... a very long travel day! After having breakfast at the hotel (Toast and french fries) we went to the airport by taxi. We were super good in time... german genes I guess.... but the rest of the world over here didn't work that way. But before complaining about our traveling problems I can show you some nice shots from the area around the hotel and the promenade.

Berlin - Zurich - Abu Dhabi - Manila

Mabuhay,

if you read this... it is traveling time again! This summer Johnny and me travel the Philippines.

We started in the early morning in Berlin, where Elisa took us to Tegel to wave us goodbye. From there we had our first flight of our 28 h journey. We had to go to Zurich in order to get the flight to Abu Dhabi. So in the very first our of our journey I ordered a coffee on the airplane... Guess what happened. Most terrible thing that can happen to you in the beginning of your holiday.

I spilled it all over my pants. So I had to wear coffee-jogger until we arrived in Manila where I was very happy to see my luggage rolling around in order to change my pants.
