It was still dark when Kent and I left for the airport to meet up with Feds and Le
ah. Our flight was 5:30am and we were all hungry already. We arrived exactly 7am at Tagbilaran airport and we waited at least 10 minutes for our driver (Mang Noli from Mang Rod) to arrived. Before heading to our itinerary for the day, we asked him to stop for any open foodstores for breakfast and guess what... we had breakfast at McDonalds! hehe nasa Bohol na kami McDo pa din... 
Our first day itinerary was the city tour with Mang Noli. Our first stop was at Bry. Bool where the Blood Compact was held. Mang Noli told us a little history about the event of Sandugo festival every June. Next stop was at the Baclayon Church, the oldest church in Bohol dating back to 1596 and it is made of stones. And 
if you look at the construction from outside, you will see an image formed like a face of a man and a figure of a woman and a child near the virgin mary altar. It was really something... Then after Baclayon church, we went to see the tarsiers. But unfortunately, we weren't able to touch it because someho
w they get stressed. They were so small and their eyes were so round and big. We fed them some insects and they eat so fast, and they also moved quickly! (sa harap pa ni feds!) Leah was a little bit disappointed, hindi siya makapaniwala na ganoon lang kaliit ang tarsiers..hehehe then, we stop by at the man-made forest in Bilar, it was reallybeautiful!!! This mountain area seldom sees the sun shine and most often than not, it rains here. Imagine lang kapag gabi, nakakatakot dito, ang dilim! Then we went straight to chocolate hills, and we had to make around 200 steps to reach the top!!! Exercise ito.. :) Siyempre may kasamang pahinga.. My opinion was medyo brown na yung chocolate hills maybe because medyo mainit na yung weather, sabi din kasi ni Mang Noli nagiging green daw yun kapag tag ulan...
On our way to the hanging bridge, we saw a carabao!!! Mang Noli stopped
the car for me... it was a dream come true! hehe I had to take a photo with it.. 
:) i don't care what others think.. kanya kanya ito :)... and when we crossed the Hanging Bridge, we all got dizzy... It was bloody scary, never been scared of heights like that before. The swaying of the bridge made it harder for me to ignore the heights. Yet, we still managed to cross and found there the “Buco King” who was once featured in tv to be the fastest guy to peel Buco using his teeth, too bad i wasn’t able to take pictures. We hung out there for a while to take a break..if isn't for the souveneirs we're going to buy, hindi na talaga kami tatawid sa kabila.. sumakit talaga ulo namin dun... Then at last, we decided to head for lunch at the Loboc river. The lunch was good and it was really nice when somebody is singing for you while you eat. It was a good thing we were already inside the 
boat when it began to rain, though it feels relaxing after all that walks. Then after lunch, we went to see the ancestral house of Clarin, located at the town of Loay,it is the residence of Don Aniceto Velez Clarin, a former governor of Bohol. Hindi nga lang namin sila kilala..hehehe.. Then off to see the giant phyton, and it was really huge!!! Feds stayed on the car no even she was alone there... talagang ayaw makakita ng snake. So, kent, leah and I went to have our picture taken with it, but Leah didn't had the chance kasi medyo gumalaw kaya natakot na din siya. After that, medyo pagod na lahat pati si mang noli, we decided na wag na ituloy yung panglao tour and straight to our resort in Dumaluan.
