Nun + Teocrine Wedding Weekend

On January 12, I embarked again for a trip to Ozamiz to see Margie and join in the festivities of Nun and Teocrine's wedding on Tuesday January 15. On Sunday January 13 we attended church in the morning and joined in celebrating the baptisms of several young people in the church at a beach in the neighboring village of Clarin. The occasion was followed by a feast on the beach.

On January 14 Margie and I took care of a few errands at the mall and in the evening went back to one of my new favorite restaurants in Ozamiz - Big J's - a unique outdoor grill which was quite popular even on a Monday evening (we even ran into the Bride, Groom, and their families there). The following morning we went jogging in a nearby park, followed by a coffee and a light early lunch at a local diner. In the afternoon we prepared for and attended Nun + Teocrine's Wedding at the United Church of Christ in Ozamiz. The wedding illustrated a beautiful image of God's Love, especially in the sharing of their vows. The wedding was followed by a reception with games and a buffet. After the reception, we spent the rest of the evening at a wine and coffee/tea bar with several of Margie's friends.

Sirao Gardens, Tops Lookout, Temple of Leah

Image
In deciding to take a hiking adventure to the mountains of Cebu, we headed to JY Mall early on Saturday February 17 where we rode motorcycles up the winding roads of the mountains. My original plan was to just go to Sirao Garden and hike to the top of Mount Sirao, however the tour included Temple of Leah and Tops Lookout, which we both had an interest in seeing. Although the motorcycle rides were interesting, and felt a little unsafe at times, we made it to the destinations and back safely, sans doing the hike itself. Our first stop was Sirao Garden, a flower garden with several statues and photo opportunities on the side of a mountain. Riding down a narrow side road to get there, we were greeted by a beautiful garden and many street vendors at the end of the isolated road. Although the garden wasn't large in size, there were still many things to see. Margie at Sirao Garden At Sirao Garden After the gardens we headed to Tops Lookout, which has a good view of Metro Ceb

Christmas Break Part 2 - PSALM Reunion, Hoyohoy, and Ozamiz

Image
Picking up from where I left off on the first blog post, we arrived in Ozamiz City on December 27. The first PSALM reunion in several years was scheduled to be held December 28. The event was held at an oceanfront private park just north of Ozamiz. Several of the elders gave testimonies, a pledge was made to support PSALM house, and great food was enjoyed by all. After the finish of the reunion we went with several from PSALM to enjoy Christmas Lights in Tangub, a spectacular assortment of buildings and landscapes decorated for the season. To top it off there was a train which traversed the festival. The next morning, December 29, after a stop at Jollibee drive-thru for breakfast, we took an impromptu trip to Hoyohoy Adventure Park and Observation Deck in the hills in Tangub. After being finally convinced, we took to the zipline, touted as the longest zip line in all of Asia. Although it is technically two separate ziplines, it still had great views and certainly w
