Sweet Escape

Before the semester ended, a midst all the tension brought about by the finals week, my friend Shelly and I decided to take a breather and visit Asturias. No school to think about. No stress. No boyfriends.No worries.

To get to Asturias, Cebu:
Ride a vehicle for hire or V-hire that goes straight to Asturias, just ask the driver.
Fare: P100.00
Travel Time: 3 hours via Trans-central Highway.

This route may be scary and sometimes considered dangerous, but I think this is the best route to take especially if you use your own vehicle.
Enjoy the mountains, cold fresh air and the scenery.

Shelly, Jude (Shelly's brother) and me.

Way to the beach from Shelly's rest house.


Hello beach! 


I was never good at biking. :/


Hello doggy!!

On our second day, we decided to eat lunch at Wild Wild West, Balamban.
We weren't able to try the adventure rides or go fishing but we did try their food.
Honestly, I was a bit disappointed.
The place was great and the people were nice, it's just that the service was terrible. You can actually see the crew getting all rambled up. They mixed up the customers' orders and even forgot some of it. We had to keep on following up on our orders. For the food that we ordered, all most all of it was okay but for the ones I was really excited about was bland--the soup with the shrimp and lechon kawali!
Food price was okay though. They have set meals too.

The view once you arrive at the Wild Wild West Restaurant.


To get to Cebu City from Asturias:
You can either wait by the main road for a V-hire or you can ride a tricycle to Balamban terminal.
Fare: P100.00
Travel Time: 3 hours via Trans-central Highway


I can't wait to visit Asturias soon.
