Touchdown at Mactan-Cebu International Airport

The airport is the Philippines' second primary gateway after the NAIA airports in Metro Manila. The terminal building incorporates both international and domestic flights with a combined capacity for almost 5 million passengers. It's my second time to visit the Queen City of the South. I remember last time we had fun with my friends ken, vic, cha and vivelyn last December 2010. It was an early flight at NAIA Terminal 3, 4am bound to Cebu City and abu\out 1 hour and 15 minutes. Mactan-Cebu International Airport is one of the major cargo airports in the Visayas and has major international flights nowaday. The airport is nice, clean and easy to access by car,taxi or multicab.If budget is a concern, stay away from those yellow airport taxis. Expect P250 to 350 for your ride to the city center since you have to traverse Lapu Lapu City and Mandaue City to get to Cebu City. If you're heading to Talisay or Danao, then taxi would be an expensive option.

White Moon Bar at Manila Ocean Park

White Moon Bar is called by many as a hidden night-out gem in the heart. We had an event that night so I take some photos and post to my travel travel blog. The perfect spot for enjoying the bay breeze and Manila’s famous sunset while lounging in their comfy sofas. If you like the idea of a 'drink with a view', this is the place for you. Head down there towards sunset, grab a spot on the bar's white leather seats. So the next time you want to escape the city, don’t go too far and just visit WhiteMoon bar. Too bad they’re open only until around midnight. But I guess that’s okay, because I think the perfect time to be there is really during sunset.
