Hi All
We've just come back from our family summer hols. We went to the Philippines, but instead of my wife's stomping ground of Manila/Cavite etc, this time we went off to Cebu, a large island half-way down the archipelago. We had a good time and the weather was mixed, raining at least once a day, but hey - I live in Oman, not known for high rainfall, so a bit of wet works for me ! Cebu was the first part of the Phils to be landed on by the Spanish, indeed Ferdinand Magellan was the first there in 1521. He was later killed by a local king, Lapu-Lapu. Cebu City boasts Colon Street, the oldest street in the Phils. Cebu also has various 16th Century Spanish churches and forts.
Here's a few of the pix we took during the holiday. I hope they're not boring !
