OMG!!! thank god i finished it on time. Anyway, hope you can gimme some feedback. As what I’ve always said… ” Comments & Violent Reactions will be Appreciated ”
.
We visited the Manila Ocean Park ( out of curiosity ) and it was a TOTAL CRAP! well not worth it for your 400 Php… Me and my friends arrived there at around 3:00pm. At the gate… theres a sign posted ” 2 Hours ” . The minute we saw it we asked each other… WTF is 2 Hours? we only allowed to stay 2 hours? who the fuck stays 2 hours in a room full of aquariums anyway? So… since we didnt know what was it… we proceed.
Geeezuz Christ! right after the guards few steps ahead of us… BOOM! we see like more than what… 600 people?! I was like… OMG!!! So Ok, since we’re already there… told em’ ok lets buy our tickets. Then thats the time we realized what the ” 2 hours ” mean. It means minimum wait time before you can buy your ticket. LOL!
Gosh! were not on Six Flags or Disneyland’s Nemo Sub Ride!
After 2 hours and 15 mins we are able to go inside and guess what?! sorry but i really have to express this in our own language… Sobrang baho! amoy kili kili, amoy putok! amoy anghit! sa sobrang dami ng tao! para kang hihimatayin sa loob! Promise! and heres the evidence.
And oh! i saw their clinic Good Lord! parang matutuluyan ka dun just in case something happened. The clinic doesnt have its own room. i took a peak and no ones there and what else… hmmm no bed? just a monoblock chair. Pero in fairness… all fishes are well kept and the tanks are clean! i even saw a guy cleaning the shark tank that day
Ok sana e, kaso they should limit the sa capcity or the number of people who enters the oceanarium. What if ( God Forbid ) something happend nga. Like earthquake, fire, or one tank leaked. All people will panic and that could result into a stampede. A lot of people can get hurt or worst die. Plus 30% of the visitors are kids! I even saw an 8 month old baby! wut the hell?! Instead of ma-relax ka… while watching the fishes… ma stress ka sa dami ng tao at sa amoy! tapos there are signs everywhere na ” Please Turn Off Your Camera’s Flash etc etc balah blah blah ” still! there are some people who still does it and i dunno kung bobo ba sila d marunong mag basa… or bulag ba or what.
camera flash can cause eye stress to the fishes ( according to them )…
Oh well, maybe because it’s still ” under renovation “. And they also goin to build a hotel and a mall. Wut the hell is it with the malls here in our country? They’re all expanding… they’re always flocked with people doing what? nothing… lol! plus the Mall of Asia is just a few kms away from the Manila Ocean Park.
Sad…. let’s see in the future what will be the venue’s outcome.
Im off to Cebu on Friday. Ha! I think im having too much vacation… and NO! im not gonna check out Vicente Memorial Hostpital hahaha
ima visit some friends, relatives & beaches!!! Thanks for reading guys. Don’t forget to drop me a line.

K is right everything she said are all totally true! safety first! both for the humans and the ocean creatures. the venue is quite nice except that its flocked with loads of people! its way too overloaded

bago pa kasi e, kaya you know, halos lahat ng tao gusto pumunta.
Parang nung bago ang mall of asia, ganon din di ba?
Sa mga gusto pumunta sa ocean park, try nyo sa pasukan. Malamang konti na ang tao, pwera na lang kung field trip season na.
May 18th, 2008 at 8:51 pm

mahal naman ng entrance fee, actually u have the same nega comment from my friends, medyo overkill daw ang price at tlg naman na sobrang dami ng tao
May 19th, 2008 at 8:17 pm
oo sis! nako mag ocean adventure ka nalang muna then tsaka mo na visit pag medyo d nasabik mga tao!
June 5th, 2008 at 12:25 pm
i’m planning to visit one of these days..
but after reading your post nagdadalawang isip na ko!
perhaps the ‘on renovation’ thing was a factor coupled with the fact na bago pa lang..hay..maybe i’ll postpone my plans of going there..
thanks!

hello to the lovely owner of this website. Enjoyed reading your article on the MOP, amoy kili kili ? lol , the prohibition of flash photography is really annoying, I have experienced some rude behaviors of the staffs blurting ‘no flash photography please’ in a rude manner during my 1st visit in March 2, 2008, yes naka 2nd visit na po ako last month (June) just to see some changes and voila! there is now an air-conditioned shop to buy some MOP shirts, katulad na rin ng mga shops sa OPHK, Underwater World and Aquaria…dati kasi nasa open space sa second floor yung bilihan ng shirts…I am still hoping that a lot of improvements will be done in the future…sana mag expand sila ng platform for more attractions para hindi mag overcrowd at mag amoy kilikili lol

thanks!
