manila ocean park
So happy.

I sort of have this list of "things to do before I die" up in my head, and I just crossed out one thing today.

28. Get to be in an underwater tunnel

Yeeeeeey!!! I can't get over my awe. I've been looking forward to the bio fieldtrip ever since I knew about the tunnel, and I'm really glad my enthusiasm was not wasted. Haha, shallow me. Oh well, I'm still going to rave about it. :)

Living in the Philippines, you can't expect much from attractions like the Manila Ocean Park, so I was amazed by the mere thought that there actually was going to be an underwater tunnel in there. I've always dreamed of being in one of those (especially after seeing Hongkong's Ocean Park in a brochure or something), with the stingrays swimming above you and everything. Of course, when it finally happened and I saw the huge aquarium, I squealed like a little girl. Never mind if the tunnel was short and escalator- less; it was the underwater tunnel of my dreams (again, pardon the shallowness of it all).

So that's basically the Manila Ocean Park experience for me. Hehe. Too bad they didn't have a dolphin show or something- That would've made it a hundred times more awesome. :D
