Finding Nemo (The Manila Oceanpark Experience)




We were there at around 11am, and the line outside was already pretty long. We really should have gone earlier.

Paul called it the "soft opening". Well, it could have been that. The whole process - from entering, walking through the park, and exiting - was unsystematic, almost chaotic. They really should try to do something about that or most guests and visitors will miss out on the experience.

Here are a few pictures taken using my camera-phone. They did allow us to bring a camera, but we were told not to use it with the flash, (baka magulat daw ang mga fishies! :p). Paul however just gave up taking pictures (even though he was supposed to be the official photographer). With everybody pushing and shoving to get a better look, it was quite impossible to take decent ones! We dint even see Nemo!

  4. tj, ok raw ung fish and co. but it's better to wait na pumunta dun kc medyo chaotic pa nga. If you remember ung time na bago pa ung EK, ganun rin daw ang volume ng peeps.
