Took the local bus out of Cebu and north toward a town called Maya Bagay. Definitely a local bus, as I ended up sitting next to a live chicken wrapped up in a plastic bag, for the 4 hour journey. And very well behaved it was too! Not a sqwark the entire time! Jumped on a ferry and headed to Malapascua island (Malapascua means bad christmas. Apparently Magellan landed here in the 1500's on Xmas day and couldnt find any fresh water, hence the name).The island is beautiful - white sands, blue seas and palm trees. Stayed just under a week - but could have stayed a lot longer! Tony tried out his new diving skills and went off on a couple of dives. Great place to relax and chill out....
