Aquatica: the musical fountain @ Manila Ocean Park

I remember that the first laser water experience I had was in the now defunct EXPO Filipino in Clark Pampanga. That was way back university years when it was newly opened. I thought the setting there was far better than here in Manila as we sat on the lawn and below us is the man-made lake. Gave me a date-in-the-park feeling. First time to sing Lupang Hinirang with images projected on water......

....and since they have this bundle ticket promo in Manila Ocean Park when we visited for only 500php, I thought, why not try it out. Has been a long time. Good thing I brought my tripod that night. Had better pics this time, not the best as I am yet to learn the ropes of dslr use but far better than not having any reinforcement at all......

here are some of the shots.......

Aquatica: the musical fountain @ Manila Ocean Park

....I heard Sentosa also has a similar attraction, something we missed last time as we had to rush to the airport to catch our flight back to manila so I really couldn't compare if this one is better than that of Singapore or not......

....I love the story that goes with the laser water show ....it's localized, even the name of the characters are. I think it's an original as I have never heard of this tale before. It's like listening to your elementary school teacher telling stories about malakas and maganda, ang alamat ng pinya all over again........

...one thing I noticed though is that the building in the background could sometimes look annoying and unfit to the grandeur of the laser water show. It's an eyesore. Would have been better if it's not there.

......All in all, the show is spectacular and is really a must for the whole family. AQUATICA musical fountain compliments the Oceanarium experience. The entrance fee (bundle ticket) will save you 200 pesos so you might as well take advantage of it.

I didn't expect much for this Manila Ocean park experience but if I may admit, I really had a good time. Something that you will enjoy doing once but the one-time experience will surely satisfy and surprise you nonetheless......

note: Manila Ocean park has an ongoing promo. visit their website, register and you can watch the musical fountain for only 90 pesos. As a matter of fact, when we went there last week, we availed of the 50 pesos promo tickets-- updated Oct. 22, 2010
