(pictures grab from freezebox, SINULOG Mardigras '08)
Cebu is so colorfull during SINULOG season, it's every January 2nd week, a festival in the honor of Sr. Sto, NIÑO de CEBU, Cebu's patron saint.
Contingents from different places in the Philippines participate in mardrigas, it's the liveliest month in Cebu, and the song of SINULOG keeps playing on my head everytime I remember Sinulog, that goes "Sinulog mu syagit ug kusug PIT SEÑOR PIT SEÑOR! tanan mag saulog, sa sinulog, magsaulog".
How much I missed this SINULOG, wish we could visit Cebu during Sinulog.

What's SUTUKIL? Cebuano's are fond of creating new words, like Bisdak is short for bisayang dako which originate at Cebu and bisdak means "taga Cebu", "GIPUSIL" is short for "ginamus gipus-an ug sili" and so many words originate in cebu "jerjer" is totttttttt hahaha sensored! okay back to "SUTUKIL" is SUgba(grill) TUwa(soup) KIlaw.
And simple living in Cebu means simple food, we are happy to have SUTUKIL on the table with out the fancy stuff, sinugba(grilled) or Fried with Suka(vinegar) and chili is a feast already, thats how simple BISDAK we are.
SUTUKIL restaurants rows at Mactan Cebu by the Shrine of Lapu-lapu, are so famous, you just choose their varieties of seafood like those on the pictures, they sold it per kilo then you have to choose how you want them to prepare it for you, from sinugba, tinuwa, kinilaw, or other kind preparation you like.

I went here with my friends, I'm not so fond swimming in water falls, especially in murky waters, I'm scared and thinking there might be something strange in the water, hahaha too much sci FI movies. But when I first saw the enchanting beauty of Mantayupan falls I get so fascinated of her, the falls is about 5o meters high above, surrounded by lush green, shes such a beauty, the water is so cool and refreshing, I don't even want to come out the water. I told my hubby that if we ever have vacation in Cebu I will visit Mantayupan falls again.
