Tagbilaran - Carmen, Bohol
After our hectic day in Cebu we set out to our main destination... Bohol. :) We availed of a tour package by kuya Levi, the package he gave us was a real bargain. It included hotel transfers, Bohol tour, Panglao tour, and two nights accommodation at the Panda Tea Garden. Upon our arrival at Tagbilaran, we just left our luggage in the hotel and started out immediately to enjoy the sights of Bohol.
First stop: Sandugo Blood compact monumentsymbolizing the first treaty of friendship between the Filipinos and the Spaniards
Famished that we were, kuya Levi took us next to Rio Verde floating restaurant
We had our lunch and enjoyed a peaceful Loboc River Cruise
After a kilometer or so of cruising we were greeted by the Ati Tribe
We went down to take pictures with them and gave a few pesos donation to the tribe
A unique primate (Just to be clear I'm referring to the Tarsier)
The famous Chocolate Hills. Although they look like dirt mounds,
they are actually limestone formations covered with grass
A close encounter with butterflies at the Butterfly Garden
Take away: butterflies don't cause blindness
We passed by the magnificent man made mahogany forest
Then we experienced crossing a hanging bridge
After crossing I rewarded myself with a coal cooked saba (yummy!)
Travelers tips: souvenirs here are cheaper (except for peanut kisses)
Finally our last stop: Baclayon Church
This is the 2nd oldest church in the Philippines
