50th Birthday, Cebu The Philippines; Day #3
The troops start arriving now for 50th Birthday, Cebu The Philippines; Day #3. Still awaiting Mr Edmonds and gang who seem to be on a tour of every Asian airport to get here, Mr and Mrs Lempriere on their way tomorrow from Hong Kong and then family Mary from Bohol, a mere ferry ride away.
I am not sure if I have mentioned this but not only is it 50th Birthday, Cebu The Philippines; Day #3. BUT I also share the same birthday with our Jhea, it was Mary and I wedding anniversary on 26th, and whilst we are all here it is also Sophia and Stacy’s birthday – how nuts is that. Quadruple whammy!!! Let’s have a look at how today went.

Breakfast and pretty much straight to the beach to await the troops arrival…

Amazing snorkelling here at Movenpick @ Mactan. Literally 15-20 yards out they have created a rocky outcrop – hey presto it is now a reef. It’s insanely good. I popped out with Amy – black and blue sea snake, sea horses, star fish, sea slugs and an abundance of beautiful tropical fish – just amazing!

Aunty Kerry on baby-sitting duties bless – thanks gorgeous!

How good are these two photos – family and mates from all over the world – love you guys, cannot thank you enough for being here to celebrate this with me!!!

Just some stunning snaps! Love you guys! Thank you so so much!!!

I am so so lucky in fact it was indeed my turn to have a bird shit on me today – Mary and I are double lucky it seems!!!

Yeap it’s free chocolate hour again, and Jude gets with his three favourite ladies. Bless him! Big flirt ha ha!!!

Uncle Steve takes over baby-sitting – BOMBERS!!!

Jude the flying-carpet apparently! Weeeeeeee!!!

A cracker – including the lovely Mum of Stacy all the way from Texas – double WOW!!!

Well hello ladies – chilling in a big way, poolside…

And then off kicks pool Zumba and Mr Rutherford takes a hasty retreat!!!

Birthday eve dinner across the road. Amazing Fiesta Bay restaurant. Great food at crazy cheap prices. Delicious. How many people????

Best buds and family – such a lucky boy I am!!!

Wherever in the world there is bone marrow – there is Amy with a straw!!!

I think all are having fun!!!

Then off to the football in the hotel – go go go South Korea!!!

OMG they won – can’t quite believe it!!!

Are we happy? Shit yes. Apart from Andy who had a TV riding on it in a prize draw – whoopsy!!!

So many here from the country I feel like I need to change jobs, yep a Korea move…

Me and best buds Annie – been sooooo long, too long. What a giggle!!!

BFF…

Blows me away to have everyone here together – just blows me away!!!

50th Birthday, Cebu The Philippines; Day #3 – what an incredible day! This is one VERY lucky 50-ish boy!!!
So there we have 50th Birthday, Cebu The Philippines; Day #3. What a cracker it was. So absolutely amazing to have so many family and friends in one place, and that place is quite literally paradise. An absolute quality day. Could not think of a better bunch to be with. Spare a thought for Eddo, 30 hour trip and a cock up on his room on arrival – sorted that today though. And to top off such a fantastic day, South Korea kick Germany out of the World Cup – insane!!! Worth staying up for, that’s for certain. So must dash now as back to my foot massage, beer, then beach. More to come re the actual day, but for now – ENJOY!!!
