We had a wonderful time in Dakak but I was feeling guilty the whole time because Sophie wasn't with us. When I called her, she felt so bad that she won't even talk to us on the phone. I cried, literally. Awang awa ako with Little S.
So when I found out I was going to Manila for a convention, I booked 3 tickets one for me, Sophia and Maury.
Last weekend, we went to Manila Ocean Park, as our way of making bawi to Little S. And I'm sure bawing bawi na kami noh. Imagine, she made us chase her in the vicinty. Chasing her in a very crowded and super mainit place is no joke, plus I was bringing a big and heavy bag with all her essential pa. I was very loud shouting her name to stop running but still she was running faster while giggling. I was already getting hyperacidity especially because I saw the news few nights ago about men kidnapping children in Manila. I don't care if I sounded praning shouting at the top of my lungs but the thought of losing my child scares me to death.
Finally when Maury got hold of her, I told her to stay close to us because strangers might snatch her away. Suprisingly after that talk she behaved. WOW! that was all I needed lang pala, a Pet talk.
Anyhoo, here is our Manila Ocean Park Adventure.
I'm glad I got the ticket for a very nice price. I only paid 499 for the Oceanaruim, Jelly Fish, Penguin Show and Musical Fountain show that would have cost me 1,050 each. O diba Bongga the deal? I only added 300 the sea lion show because it wasn't part of the Metro Deal package. And I'm glad I purchased that ticket because Sophia loved it so much.
The Oceanarium
Another fave of ours, is the Jellies exhibit.
We also loved the musical fountain show. Too bad Sophie was very tired already, she had fallen asleep in the middle of the show.
Overall I'd say we had a good time. It was entertaining and educational. But no offense, we didn't like the penguin show. It scared Sophia and a few kids who were there because the penguin is just an animation and the voice sounds like a clown, which for us wasn't so entertaining. But then again it's just my opinion.
I'm glad I had a good deal with the tickets because if I paid the original amount, I would be slightly disappointed, what I'm saying is the original price isn't worth the money. The line was ridiculously long, there were no tour guides to guide us, we were just left wandering the place. Some of the air cons weren't functioning well, maybe that's the reason why the oceanaruim was packed with people because it was cool there.
But then again thanks to Metro Deal, the money I paid was worth it. We had a good time bonding with Sophia and Sophia had a great time with the sea lion, fishes, jelly fish so it's all good because whats really important is that Sophia had a wonderful time :)
How about you guys? how was your weekend?
