It's a Mango Shake kinda day

Upsettingly we have to leave our lovely accomodation in Cebu Dive Centre that Cameron kindly gave to us as he had it booked up, but luckily we found somewhere else yesterday. So all is good. It has a shared bathroom and no AC but hey we can't have it all!

Will still wasn't feeling well so today is going to be another one of those days. In the morning we got up packed, went for breakfast, took our laundry and then found a place that had a lovely view of the sea and fruit shakes. I had a super yummy mango shake and Will had a pineapple one. All of a sudden I felt really ill and we had to go back to the room. Uh oh... I think I have what Will had! Hopefully I don't!!

As soon as we got in the heavens opened so it gave us an excuse to sit in an AC room till check out! After check out we sat and chatted in the common area with Cameron and other budding scuba divers until about 3pm when we were able to checkin. It's back to basics, a small room, electric fan and shared bathroom, but it did the business. After checking in we had lunch,, met a couple more people and then headed back to the dive centre for some more socialising.

For dinner we were able to get oursleves on the VIP reservation list (only 2 places left) for Smoke Night at the taco bar with Cameron and crew. All we knew is that he'd been talking about it all day and that it would be good so we went for it. What we probably should have checked was what the food would be and how much haha We arrived a bit late and saw people eating enormous meat platters. Each person had a whole chicken leg (thigh and drumstick), a rack of ribs, a beef fillet, beans and half a jacket potato. Me and Will looked at each other and thought jeeze we can't consume this much food!! However, luckily they only had enough for one platter and instead of the beans and potato they only had sweetcorn left so it was much more bearable. We met a Finnish and Belgian guy and sat chatting to them about our various countries and politics. When we got the bill we were even more relieved that they only had one. It was the same price as a dive! Phew! But it was different and something fun to do 😊Read more
