Bohol - Around Panglao

First day at Bohol, our flight arrived a couple of hours before lunch. The package included only an island tour with river cruise for the second day. Finding ourselves with free time on the afternoon of the first day, we availed of the Panglao tour. (P.S. Please don't ask me the names of the places we went to. Sorry!)

Bohol - Flushing Meadows

Last September, availing of a CashCashPinoy promo, my parents, Bruks, Porkchop and G (from the office) went to Bohol. The promo included airfare and resort accomodations and an island tour, organized by Indochina Strings Philippines.

The people at Indochina Strings were very helpful in booking everything especially since I caused them some difficulty. Apparently, they had 4 reserved seats per flight for those availing of the promo. But after some follow-ups, they accommodated our party of 6 to be on the same flight. Yey!

Our flight was with Airphil Express and amazingly, the flight landed a few minutes early.

Our airport transfer provided by our hotel was already waiting for us. We stayed at Flushing Meadows. It's a relatively new resort (visit their webpage here), and really quite beautiful.

I liked the villa-type styling of the buildings. It was only later that I realized that the names were tennis-inspired. Hihihi. And the grounds were immaculate.

Their portion of the beach was a bit ho-hum, but we were always too tired to actually swim.

I'd like to have this kind of walkway in my house.
