Thank you so much for this exceptional six star rating. Your inspiring review really made my day, my friend.

Yes, I'm happy & excited to visit my hometown beach tomorrow!

reply by the author on 14-Jun-2016

WOW! Can I come? I will be in Cebu and will do some sight seeing in Bohol. I haven't decided which hotel to stay. Bohol and Cebu, are not expensive at all.

reply by Dick Lee Shia on 14-Jun-2016

Oh there are so many beach resorts to choose in Panglao island, Bohol.
Eskaya is the most expensive but there are cheap and presentable ones. Helland is the latest.
Amorita is overlooking Alona beach.
In Cebu, Mactan is the nearest to the airport.
Waterfront, Plantation Bay & the likes. Some names have been changed. I was there 3 yrs ago? I'm going tomorrow to give clothing & foods to the kids. Mi.Michigan bought 10 photos from me for gifts to her church members.

I can give you the cell no. of a good taxi driver in Bohol. His name is Bong Pandan but I have to look for his call card later as I'm still doing landscaping work to augment my income for the kids' aids...

thanks, my friend. Yes, I was considering going to Alona Beach. So happy for you that MMike purchased some of your images, and proceeds goes to a good cause. What is the best transportation from Cebu to Bohol?

reply by Dick Lee Shia on 15-Jun-2016

It's Anne Crans (Mi.Michigan) my friend...not Mike.
