My sister, G, and her husband were ecstatic.
Their “hijo unico”, P, was on a one-month long vacation from his US
base job. And they made sure to pull out
all the stops to guarantee the best ever one month visit for P.
Travels to the provinces were their favorite form of bonding
as a family. And travel they did. It was like old times: my brother-in-law’s keen interest on 4-wheel
driving, my nephew’s love for photography and my sister’s adventurous spirit
made for the perfect vacation and bonding experience.
Naturally, Cebu made it in their bucket list. My nephew had to check out the whale sharks of Oslob (a first for him), had to get his fill on steamed fried rice (his
all-time Cebu craving), and had to give
my mother a tight hug (or else!).
