Manila Ocean Park


          I always dreamed to go to Manila Ocean Park. I think it is the only Oceanarium in the Philippines. I am on the  southern part of my country and Manila Ocean Park is on the northern part so I never imagined that I can still be able to visit this place. So here it is, Manila Ocean Park is located in Manila, the capital city of the Philippines. It is at the back of Quirino Grand Stand which is famous as the place where new presidents of the Philippines take their oath.  From the Ninoy Aquino Airport, we ride a taxi which cost us P250 pesos as fare to be able to reach Manila Ocean Park. The entrance fee is P400 per person as regular rate, children 4.5 feet and below P350 while children who are 2 feet and below is free in admission, there is 20% discount for senior citizen and 10% for Manila residents with valid id. After paying our admission fee, we roam around the oceanarium as long as we want. So, here are some of the photos I have taken. Enjoy!!!

Palwan: Palawan Wildlife Rescue and Conservation Center

Image
     This is Palawan Wildlife Rescue and Conservation Center or also called Palawan Crocodile and Nature Park. It is located in Palawan City that if you would be staying within the city, it is very much accessible. You would only have to ride  a tricycle, which is the number one means of transportation in Palawan City,  and you would be able to reach this place.      Yup,that's me, facing my fear and holding a baby crocodile. We have this session while waiting for our time to enter the crocodile facility and the park. Well this picture taking session is not free, this is worth twenty pesos and if you want to purchase a copy of the picture it is worth around 150-200 pesos.       This is what welcomes you inside the facility where a short orientation is to be given by the staff. This crocodile is used to be the largest crocodile captured in the Philippines, not anymore because of the captivity of Lolong. These are fresh water crocodiles around four to six year

Land Trip from Manila to Davao

Image
            It was a long trip that took two days and two nights of travel. We had been able to have a land trip from Manila to Davao because my companions bought new cars and preferred to transport the cars by having a land trip than shipped it. From Manila to Davao, we had been able to sail in two ferry boats, pass by to different cities, travelled miles of road and pass the three parts of the Philippines, from Luzon, Visayas and to Mindanao.       Our travel started specifically from Paranaque, Manila and we don't have a map with us but we make sure to look for signboards. From Paranaque, we took the SLEX road to Calamba and to Batangas. We pass by San Jose and San Pablo City. Then, we entered the Quezon Province and pass by the municipalities and cities of Candelaria, Sariaya, Lucena City, Quezon Forest Park, Gumaca, Lopez, and Caluag. The most unforgettable road on this part is the Quezon Forest Park which is a DENR preserved park. Mt. Mayon       We then ent

Barugkot & Lampaki, Kimarayag, Pigcawayan, Cotabato

Image
Isn’t it magnificent? A view from Barugkot Barangay Kimarayag, Pigcawayan, Cotabato. A beautiful scenery from my very own hometown Pigcawayan. We were able to discover this place because my husband’s relatives owned some property here.  A view of the Liguasan Marsh, surrounding towns, Pigcawayan, Libungan and Cotabato City’s lights could be seen during nighttime. Here is Mt. Akir-Akir, a well known hiking destination here, the highest peak in North Cotabato. This is the view from Lampaki, Brgy. Kimarayag, Pigcawayan, Cotabato. Who would have thought there would be a very beautiful sunset here at Barugkot? A little birdwatching activity along the way. Another beautiful sunset with the view of Bungo island. A time-lapse video of the sunset. Most of all, leave nothing but memories. Taking pictures is savoring love intensely, every hundredth of a second - Marc Riboud
