Next stop sa crown regency

The edge coaster was under renovation. Which was the main reason why we went to crown regency. It was 550pesos for one ride, 750 pesos for 2 rides and 1000pesos for 3rides. we decided not to take any ride at all. So we headed straight to Oslob Cebu

We stayed at chateau de Tanawan homestay owned by ate venny, she can be contacted via mobile phone number 09179127783, Her homestay is right infront of Tanawan elementary school, 5mins walking distance to whale shark debriefing. It was 350pesos per night stay without aircon, and 450pesosper night for a room with aircon. She was very accommodating. There was free wifi and free continental breakfast. We arrived around 10pm. She was able to assist us into her homestay…

Ate venny had her friend Kuya Roger to assist us going to the Oslob whale shark watching.

As early as 6am after breakfast, we went to the Oslob whale shark watching. There was a bit a lot of people by then.

First was debriefing.

do’s and Donts whAle shark..

They taught that I was a foreigner… They wanted to get 1k from me.. Syempre I spoke Tagalog… Edi nanahimik silang lahat.. Hehe

We paid 500 for diving with whale shark

After whale shark watching

Next stop Kawasan falls

From Oslob to bato- 20pesos

Bato to badian- 40pesos

At the entrance, we were offered a tour guide with 300pesos fee. We refused since we read in some blogs that it was very easy to get to Kawasan falls and we needed no tour guide.

Our way to Kawasan falls

We paid 30pesos each environmental fee

300pesos – to rent a raft to the waterfalls

100pesos ( for men to assist u pulling the raft) it’s a bit negotiable. ) two men needed so we paid 200.

300pesos- to rent a table

Finally

Selfie mode… Happiness is the key

After an hour massage and fun… Hahah

We were ask to go canyoning.. But we refused coz we had plans already for osmena Peak in dalaguete. We won’t have enough time for canyoning.. So we told them prolly next time..

Our way back. Posing mode

Next stop osmena peak..

We made a huge mistake…. We were suppose to take a motorcycle from badian to dalaguete city which was much nearer for 500each. However we took a bus to carcar city for 78pesos each, A tricycle to dalaguete city 700pesos ( 235each ). Then from dalaguete bayan we took a motorcycle to the osmena peak. We hired 2motor.. The motorcycle charged us 400pesos each for going to osmena peak then back to Oslob… Anyways it was an hour from dalaguete bayan to osmena peak entrance… From osmena peak entrance it was about 30mins walk to the peak..

Our way to osmena peak registration center

We rented a scarf outside the monastery for 20pesos.

Entrance

Pangit ng itsura ko. Hehe

Wishing well

After a quick tour we headed to Cebu city.. It was about 3hrs bus ride to Cebu city…

We stayed at sugbutel hotel. Since we had no much time to search for a better hotel. It was a dorm type.

May 31st morning

We checked out early morning,went to travelers lounge Cebu city to drop our bags, paid 50pesos for storage..then we headed to crown regency..

We called crown regency and they informed us that the edge coaster was working. We were so excited.. However when we arrived there. They had a sign up that it was still under renovation… Napakamalas nohh super….. Then again Say NO to other rides….

At dahil under renovation ang edge coaster

Super pictorial kami dun

Pasabog

Pictures sa crown regency Elevator

Then we went shopping for dried mangoes, souvenirs and keychAins…

Afterwards decided to go to Mactan shrine for little tour

Mctan shrine is about 30mins from Cebu city 200pesos to 250pesos taxi ride. For me it’s cheaper to buy some souvenir like shirt keychAins, decorations at mctan shrine than at Cebu city.. But buy food pasalubon at Cebu city.. Mas Mura.
