Tubod-Bitoon, Dumanjug "Farm Animals: Goat"

Playing with Goat is one of my hobby.. hope you like it too. We, at the province of Cebu, is where we can take care of our farm animals. Raising them is also one of our top-source of income.

Raising Goats is not expensive. You only need an area where grasses are abundant. You can "tugway" or put the goats in leash in the bushes and let them eat the grass even the whole day. Just be sure that there is a shade for your goats to rest.

At night, you gather them and take them home to where you put all your farm animals. It's that easy. Then give them water to drink. You don't need to buy food for them or artificial Feeds, just let them freely go the bushes and do their jobs.

In the Bukid, you get attached with the farm animals. That's the disadvantage of raising them. Me, myself, I talk to them, play with them but when the harvest time comes, or when your family is in dire need of Money, taking the goats to the market and sell them is the hardest part but you need to get used to it because it is their life.

Malabuyoc Beach

Here are a couple of pictures we took in Malabuyoc Beach.

The pictures were taken the year 2011. The beach is so rocky but the water is crystal clear. There are no sea urchins around the shore area so you are safe and your kids to swim here. Be sure to wear some slippers so your foot won't get hurt by the rocks.

Perfect for family gathering that don't need an entrance fee. This is just along the National Road from Cebu City to Cebu South. When you take the bus, you can see the shore line is so beautiful. The water is clear and so refreshing. You might want to get off the bus and stop and swim.

This time year 2011, we were visiting one of my friends' Friend in Malabuyoc. We went to Mainit Spring in Malabuyoc and after, when to go swimming here in the beach.  We had so much fun. We really enjoyed the company of my friends.

ENJOY!!!!!!

Mainit Spring In Malabuyoc (Year 2011)

Mainit Spring is Located in Malabuyoc, Cebu. Please take a look at these photos:

The trek of going to Mainit Spring, (year 2011) was so hard.  You need to pass through the rocky and slippery human path going up to the Spring.

That time (year 2011), the Spring was not developed yet. The path is so dangerous falls are not as clean as you think as it is.

Why it is called Mainit Spring?

According to them, I think there is a volcano around the area because the main source of water (where the falls come from) is not Mainit. It is really really cold water. Natural water from the Source.

But when it reaches to the stream, the water becomes warm to hot that it can boil an egg. We dug a little so the water will stay a bit longer while soaking (like in the bathtub) because it is warm.

Fast forward up to this year:

Hearsay, they have developed the area and put a cemented tub where warm water can stay longer and you can enjoy a warm bath.

The stream is where the land produces warm or hot evaporated air.

Going down......

Climbing up with the bamboo ladder for the FALLS 3...

The Mainit Spring and Falls is located behind that mountain.. 

 Almost there......

There it is.. Behind that little cave... TAKE NOTE: THIS IS JUST THE FALLS NUMBER 3. WE DID NOT MAKE IT TO THE FALLS NUMBER 7 BECAUSE IT'S TOO SCARY.  

This water is luke warm. 

UP... UP..UP

That's it.Sorry If this was not arranged properly.

Moalboal Beach Resorts, Cebu City

Enjoy the summer!

If you are planning to go Cebu South this summer, better go to Moalboal beach resorts.

When we choose where to stay in Moalboal, we usually go to HK Beach Resort.  They place is quite crowdy during the peak season but sure you will enjoy swimming with your kids and families.

They have cottages too with prices ranging from Php300-800.00 depending on the size of the cottage that you chose.

Many foreigners / Tourists are walking the shore line wearing their beach body bikinis and trunks. It is one of the tourist destination in the South Cebu, because of the crystal clear water, nice shoreline and pure fine sand that won't hurt your feet.

Moalboal, Cebu is also known of its Sardines where you can enjoy watching school of Fishes while snorkeling around the coral reef areas.

Summer in the Philippines starts end of February and Ends around the end of May before the rainy season starts. But weather is unpredictable, it can rain a lot during summer season.
