A visit to Simala.
It was December 13 of 2024 when my cousin invited me to her birthday which was held in Cebu. It wasn't literally her birthday though. It was more of a belated birthday celebration.
December 13, 2024, at 3 AM in the morning. I packed my things and changed into some proper clothes and waited for my cousin to pick me up. When she finally arrived, together with her family, I said goodbye to my parents since they weren't coming along with me. We traveled from De La Paz until Loon. We arrived at 5 AM in the morning and my aunt and uncle went to the place where they get the tickets. We thought that we were gonna be on the boat around 6, but turns out the boat that was going to travel at 6 wasn't going to Argao, our destination at Cebu since we we're going to Simala. Since we had to wait until 10 AM, we stayed there and watched the sun rise.
Just look at how beautiful it is!
After that, we ate our breakfast then waited until it was 10 AM.
It was finally time to get on the boat, we got our things and waited at the place where you wait before you can finally get into the boat.
Look at my two cousins, aren't they such cute siblings?? Hehe <33
These are some pictures during our way to Cebu.
These two girls are my cousin and aunt. Their names are Ate Lorna, and Aya.
During on our way to Cebu. I just admired how beautiful the sea was. I talked with my cousin while admiring the scenery around me. And eventually after a few minutes, I fell asleep. I woke up around 10-11 AM which I didn't wait much longer to arrive in Cebu since our estimated time of arrival was 12 PM. And around 11 AM, I slowly saw the Cebu's seaport and I finally got relieved that we arrived safely since i was overthinking so much last night since it was Friday the 13th. LOL.
We went to Simala and ate our lunch before going to the church. The food was quite okay since it was not hot. It feels like it just came out the refrigerator but overall it's alright. The moment came when we finally went to the church. It felt ethereal. The church was so big, so beautiful.
Then after that, we removed our shoes then went to the place where you can't wear any shoes. I forgot what it was called. After that, I bought a bracelet for 200 pesos which had black and white beads. My auntie said that we are going to go now because we were going to another place now. Here are some photos I took before we headed out.
