The immigration has just moved to G mall, its near the SM mall in Cebu city. The taxi drivers in Cebu city are normally very good, I have lived here for 3 years and will use a taxi all the time to get around the city and have never been scammed.
Watching your vid I realized I forgot my annual immigration check in. On my first card I let it go 5 years as no one told me about annual check in and it cost me 14K! I’m on my 3rd 5yr card and only missed it by 2 months so fine will be light. They moved from JCentre over a year ago and went to Robinsons Galleria. Now you say they are in G Mall? I’ll get down there Wednesay Apr 3. Thanks!
Thank you for several years ago showing Green Apple dental which I’ve used pre COVID 2020. I have The Philippines SRRV was a $1,500. deposit with indefinite expiration. However; I haven’t returned since March 2020. I spend more than 7 months per year in Medellin, Colombia that has better infrastructure, temperatures 60-85 Fahrenheit all 12 months ; and less than a 3 hour flight from Miami. Many Expats to enjoy social cultural activities with. The Expats I’m with has 130 members; most are from Canada & USA.
I think its time for a video on that subject. Mareis and I now weigh less than ever, I am at my college weight and Mareis is at her pre-marriage weight. Thanks for the topic for our upcoming video...John
I do management and self control of calories intake. Some intermittent fasting. Mostly salads , proteins, few carbs and avoid sugars. Do fitness including daily swimming to get my heart rate HIIT. Good sleep and positive social cultural activities.
its very corrupt over there, many try to scam you anyway they can, ive been scammed a few times as well, you just cant trust anyone and always guard yourself. I know its not everyone, but how can you filter the good from the bad. :)
Hi guys, it could have been a genuine mistake by the taxi driver. Sometimes, especially if they are a new driver, they do not know their way around and are as confused as you. Lina said there are two Parklane Hotels. There is the one you stayed in and there is another called Parklane International, apparently. I will google it. In June last year, we stayed there at Parklane where you were, prior to flying out for New Zealand, after a months vacation there. Our room was on the 10th floor and we enjoyed our brief stay there. Also easy walking distance to Ayala Mall where we met with our friends Rod and Arlene of, 'Amazing Philippines" fame, for some quality time together. Regards to you both, Bob and Lina. NZ.
In Cebu City there's only one Parklane International Hotel and we confirmed it from the front desk management but there's another Parklane hotel in Bohol
Bris is. Wonderful, responsible sister. Great job on raising her well. Great job Bri ❤ Mariz, that’s why you wear comfortable shoes and clothes 😂 When I’m in the Philippines I wear what’s comfortable, flat shoes and comfortable clothes that is presentable and can go rugged as well . Girl ! You’re a village girl show them 😂
Hello @RubyDaveinthePhilippines, I always wear comfortable flat shoes too and clothes but because it's John's 13A Visa Biometric and interview on that day I have to dress up Lol 😆
Folks , have traveled for years , travel light, l use to get carsick when l was a kid. Life is odd , drove for a living. Trick is look forward it's the buildings whizzing by and the movement of the vehicle. I guess when there's that many, it's hard to travel light.
Hi Guys, I noticed you had a van pick you up from your home and go on the boat and I guess to your hotel? I didn't know you could get such a service from Duma to Cebu? What did that cost you?
@TurquoiseSunsets if you have the app on your phone John you should just be able to test it out automatically to see weather it works in Cebu or not .. i sympathize with your taxi experience tho UGH i hate dealing with the dishonest ones
Yes there is! We were just in Mactan Island. We used Grab from the airport to our hotel.. It's very convenient and reliable. ❤ We also use it when in Manila❤
Hi Maries and John,,kami btaw to inyo nakatagbo sa elevator sa Gmall gahapon, I said "hi"😊😊 then ganiha I saw John and Brianna sa Mcdo, ka gwapa nlng man jd sa inyo daughter 🥰🤩

When I visit Cebu, I only use Grab. Fixed price, and it's mapped to your destination. Never get scammed.
same. fixed price so if he ends up taking a longer route it does not matter, however that has not happened yet.
Very nice family. I've been enjoying your videos for some time now. I hope you enjoyed your vacation.
