Manila Ocean Park

 This is this lobby where we stood in a very long line to buy our tickets to see the ocean park.  We found out that the restaurants were all outside the park-in this lobby area, so after getting our tickets, we ate lunch at the Pancake House.  After that we set off to see all the fish. 

 The ocean park is right on Manila Bay-this was our view out the window of the pancake house restaurant.

 a chocolate chip sea star-so well named!

 This is inside the all glass tunnel tank that you walk through looking at fish all around you

 Rays are so pretty and graceful

 This is the glass bottom boat that we rode in the top of the glass tunnel tank-they had a large tiger shark that we saw several times but I never got a very good picture of him.

 a model Jeepney they had for kids to play on

 One of the tanks in the jellyfish exhibit-Ashley's favorite part of this was watching the colored lights in the tank change and you can guess that her favorite was when the lights were PINK.

 Here she is clapping and dancing along with the music for the sea lions.

 Here are Ira and Isabel doing tricks for the audience during the sea lion show-it was really neat!

 Afterwards we went downstairs and got to meet Ira up close-Scott wanted to do it but I like this picture with a funny face.

Here are the kids at home that night sporting their new Manila Ocean Park t-shirts-Scott's has a sea lion, Ashley's is pink, and Ryan's has a turtle.  It was a really fun trip.
