Welcome to Bohol! 



Considered as one of the top tourist destination in the Philippines as voted many times by the Philipine Tourism Board.


After logging out from work, that was around 3:00 o'clock in the morning, everyone from The United Colors of Attitude Team was very excited for the first ever team building, The UC of A: Bohol Escapade. 

Included in our itinerary were centuries-old Spanish church at Baclayon, the white sand beach in Panglao Island, the Chocolate hills, the tarsier sanctuary, the famous pyhton Prony, the Floating Restaurant in Loboc River, Butterfly Conservation Center, and the known man-made forest. 



When we toured Bohol island province, we stayed at the Caballo Residence at Baclayon, few steps away from the centuries-old Spanish church Baclayon Church.  My friends and I traveled from Cebu City which is just an hour by ferry. We took the route Cebu City-Tubigon through fastcraft ferry boat. As we reached the wharf at Tubigon, the van we rented was already waiting at the parking area adjacent to the port exit ready to take us to our destination. 



Here are the snap shots of our The UC of A Bohol Escapade.



We got to our accommodation at a great place with a homey feel at Caballo Residence, few steps away from Baclayon Church. We were lucky enough that one of our teammates is from Bohol, so getting a place to stay was never our problem. Joan already made arrangements with the the v-hire driver regarding our itinerary, so all we did was to get inside the van, sat in a very comfortable way we can as we enjoyed the ride.

I've heard a lot about the big snakes and seen the pictures of the phytons of Bohol online. But as we had our first stop, i was stunned at the size of the snake as I saw it, which is just a less smaller than my body. It seems to me that I wanna hold or touch it, but because of human fear I had a second thought of dong it. I had a lot of "what ifs" until i decided to be just contented seeing it and never did any attemps at all. This Burmese python is owned by a couple in barangay Dipatlong,Maribojoc and kept in the yard of their house. This Burmese python is a female named Samantha having a waistline of 38 inches, bigger than the first known python in captivity found in Albur. Though shorter in length, it has a bigger stomach and devours a 20-kilo piglet in just a minute.

Also found in Bohol, specifically in Albur is the world’s largest python in captivity. As you get inside the compound where this phyton is located, a few walks away from the gate, you’ll see the specially-made cage for the 12 year-old python named ‘Prony’. The giant snake that is over 300 kilos shares the cage with a few birds, and a lemur, amazingly, she doesn’t eat them and only eats what’s fed to her which is usually goats, pigs, dogs, and chickens.

our next stop was the Tarsier 
With its huge eyes, long tail, and hands and feet that must have inspired Steven Spielberg when he created E.T., the Philippine tarsier is almost Bohol's trademark. Still, few people have had the opportunity to have a close encounter with it.
The reason is twofold. Because it is a shy nocturnal animal that leads a mostly hidden life, it sleeps at daytime near the trunks of trees and shrubs deep in the impenetrable bushes and forests. They only become active at night, and even then, with their much better sight, and amazing ability to maneuver around trees are very well able to avoid us noisy humans well before we become aware of it's presence, so even when they were still present in abundance, the worlds of the tarsier and humans were mostly separated. But today, due to the quickly growing population, which causes more and more forests to be converted to farmland, housing areas and roads, the place where the tarsier can life it's secluded life is disappearing.
