View from the hill...

Everytime I visit Cebu I like it more, each time for different reasons....vantage point this time was 2,000 feet above sea level, behind the city of Cebu. Nice cool, fresh air and a beautiful view, what more could anyone ask for..although, judging by one couple up there who had a bottle of vodka and a couple of glasses with them, the view is just not enough for some!

It's a nice drive up and there are quite a few restaurants on the road up that take advantage of the view.






An Italian restaurant on the way up (name escapes me, sorry!).


Views from further down the hill.




For those of you that venture to Cebu often, this little gem lurks on Mactan, just down the road from the Hilton...at present only the restaurant is open...but that in itself is lovely, apparently come Chinese New Year, there will be 9 rooms available...it really is worth a vist...we need somewhere like this in Manila!

Unfortunately, only the little camera was with me (so, no change there!)so a fair amount of camera shake due to the fading light...

Getting down to Cebu was stressful because of the Friday night traffic, fortunately the flight was delayed by about 20 minutes....getting back to Manila was a dream...left the apartment on Mactan at 8pm...back in my apartment in Manila to see the 11 o'clock BBC news...not bad going!
