Here’s another OUT OF CEBU (OOC) entry re our most recent trip to Bindoy in Negros Oriental. We managed to visit Bindoy for its annual fiesta.
The trip was uneventful until we reached Sibulan in Negros. On our jeepney ride to Dumaguete, a decent-looking guy sat beside me. He was carrying a backpack and he placed it on his lap. He probably thought that I was a traveller because of my big bag, so he decided to get his hands in my pocket to see if I had any cash. He used the backpack on his lap to cover what his left hand was doing. BUT, I noticed it and told my mom to ‘Hold on to your bag’. My mom was sitting on the other side of the jeep. The guy panicked and jumped off the jeep at the next stop. LOL. By the way, there was nothing in my left pocket. Only Lucy. LOL.
Osman with Banana. Wow!
The passenger terminal in Santander, Cebu
Fastcraft to Sibulan, Negros Oriental – only 10 to 15 minutes! Wooot!
Stop in Dumaguete for lunch
Ang Inahan. Bow. Hahahaha.
We visited the local cemetery
Then checked out mom’s childhood playground
We saw the stage for the Ms Bindoy 2008 pageant
And their new [awesome] covered court
Congrats Bindoy for being a Galing Pook Awardee!!!
Satchmo’s distant relative
Then we decided to go to the ‘hunasan’
Hurry! Catch it!
What did you see?
Tuyom!
What is this?
Osman and his starfish
Looks can be deceiving
Enough for supper? Hehehehe
Osman found this beautiful huge Saang! Wooohoo!

Hehehe. Thanks. Hehehe. Half na man lang na ang inasal kay nauwahi na mi sa pista ug one day. hehehehe.
Mao lagi. maayo gani wala nakuot si Lucy. LOL
I really like this post. There are interesting places around the world, but nothing beats home. The terminal in Santander is much better than before! You mom is beautiful. Was she Miss Bindoy before? Nalingaw ko sa iyang mga litrato with the umbrella. Wa man nimo kodaki ang naluto nga kinhason, Ley! Gimingaw na ra ba ko ana. Ang saang ni Osman, that’s a cool find. Makaon ba na (ang unod, dili ang shell)?
I’ve been to Santander once long, long time ago during mayor Abeniz time, amiga man mi sa iyang daughter during college in USC…. wow what a changed!
Nice post i love that your mom is so carefree in the photos!especially w/ the umbrella. Dako kaayo nakuha ni Osman na Conch gi save ninyo ang shell para souvenir.nakatawa gyud ko sa picture sa imo mama sa lechon na nagtuwad LOL.gimingaw nuon ko sa lechon dah…

The cow, Satch relative….. looks so painful! is that how they tie their cow? hehehe I might sound stupid but I never seen one like that…. thanks Ley for the photogs….. your mom is “hot”
ley unsa man to naa sa picture na naay captioning na “looks can be deceiving ” nagsige jud ko tan-aw dahon ug bato ra man ako makit-an, naay isda or shell sa photo?
@Jen

@Jen

too bad wala magkadula ug tennis and imong spouse sa akong sister while in Cebu…
lamia ba anang kinason uy ug saang, mao dyud na ang kinaham ba . . . dako na ang kausaban sa santander port dah, I used to visit the place years before. . . nice pics as usual…..
Ley, basin og ‘lalaking huyang’ tong na-attempt mikuot sa imong bulsa. basig duna toy laing tuyo? . . .hehehe . joke only!!!!!
unsa bay lami aning sa-ang? what’s the difference also with the ‘lagang’- the shell used to sell at Php 5-10 a piece, that was 3 decades ago, i do not know now.
@takdol – yep sir. makaon ang saang. very big meat. bigger version sa aninikad. si osman ang gahurot sa iyang catch. ehehehe.
@jenny – katong looking can be deceiving kay dahon to sa left. dayon sa right kay fish. dili gyud to mo-move nga fish unless hikapon. hehehe. mura ra pud ug dahon. 🙂
@tikboy – hahahahaha. mahal na kaayo nang saang karon diri sir. mao nay baligya sa mga high-end seafood restos daw. mahal ang kilo. apil pa gyud timbang ang shell. LOL
wow!!! gimimgaw napod ko sa amoa da! Luyang.
Fiesta (lechon), dagat (kinhason), kalubihan (butong)
kalame ba. Lame nang sabaw sa kinhason. Ingon pa sa akong mama kung asa to nag atubang ang pointed parts sa Saang, toa did2 dapit magtago iya paris. Im not sure how true, alam muna ang mga matanda.
Lage oi! baka mahuyang tong mangunguot. Maayo gani wla kawata si Lucy. Satch gonna find another one in the US then.
Yay!!! ang tuyom nagbaha. The name of the small brown fish is Bunog as what we call it in Luyang. Where the pointed part of the leaf is facing, that’s were u can see the fish.
For me, your mom is cutey! Hello Osman ur 2nd yr now, a’nt you?
As usual, an awesome pix. You have a very fun loving mom, Ley. I’ve never seen a leafy looking fish like that before. It’s just about right for Osman to eat most of the giant aninikad since he catched it. Hahaha! Aninikad is my fave shellmeat, lami kaayo na. Still good looking lined up coco tress.
Fun pictures, Ley. Daghan nako ug adtu-on sa Cebu inig June! 😀
I was checking the “Mga Minglabay Bai” on the left side of this blog and I noticed that on April 2007, murag imo gi tour ang cebu, from carcar, dalaguete, mantalongon, argao, boljoon to oslob to 3 hours in Lapu Lapu/Mactan Island, looking back, nindot pamalandungon nga daghan kaayo makuha sa imo blog hilabi na sa katong dugay dugay na nahilayo sa sugbo….. keep it up. . .
Ang tuyom mura’g mga sea decorations sa? Great pictures. Each pic really tells many story. For example, katong babaye nga nagpayong, ok kaayo ang iyang 3-episode story. hehehe. Maayo.. maayo..
Joker man diay imong young Mom Ley. Maayo kaayo siya mobalan-balan sa umbrella ba. Nalingaw gyud ko. Sige lang, pabalunan nya nako puhon si Satchmo ug payong pauli dinha for her.
Dili na edible ang mga tuyom dinha? Mahal baya na diri…. uni on sushi!!
Kanindot sa hunas! Kadaghan sa tuyom!
Thanks and take good care of yourself and your MOM.
