Sabik sa SUBIC

 

               I was asked join the Subic field trip of my youngest brother which is in grade 3 because he needs someone older to look after him during the trip. And of course I am more than willing to join, because except that I wanna go to Subic and see dolphins personally, I've never been to Subic before.

              In October 7, 2010, me and my brother woke up early because the assembly in the school is 4:00am and being late is considered as a SIN. So at 4:00am we immediately leave our house. Their school is just 10minutes away from our place.

             When we got to their school I notice that I am the only teenager to accompany the students because most of them look like the student's mother and grandmother. But I already got used to that because it's not my first time to accompany my brother in his field trip and anyway, I dont mind being with the oldies. haha.

             At exactly 5:30am the bus depart from the school going to Subic. NLEX GASOLINE STATION is the 1st stop over, for the students to pee and eat breakfast.  We stayed there for 30 minutes then continue travelling going to Subic. At 8:30am we arrived in Ocean Adventure, I just sleep in the bus on the way there. haha.

            After the registration, we finally enter and start the tour inside. AQUARIUM is what we visit first, which contains a lot of aquariums containing different sea species each and a lot of colorful fishes.

           Next is we watched a show which is obviously for kids but gives a very nice moral lesson regarding to preservation of the environment for the sake of all  living organisms living in it, such as animals and humans.

SEA LION SHOW is the next activity, where in the trained see lion will do tricks to entertain the audience which is very cute. He can smile, put his tounge out, kiss, clap, wave his fins and a lot more entertaining gestures. For some information sea lions is different from seals, sea lions are larger than the latter and definitely has a darker color. Their gender is can be identified by the hair on their neck, when it has a hair on the neck that is a male sea lion. But when it doesn't have a hair on its neck its definitely a female one.

            After that show we finally had our lunch in one of the nipa on the beach. The lunch is provided by the ocean adventure. after eating we continue the tour and another show is waiting for us in ECO THEATER, a show which features some interesting animals like bat, snake, eagle and etc. It also shows on how to survive in the forest by making fire and some utensils by just using bamboo. It is a good show for kids where in they will be aware on how the animals live and the kids got really interested in Forest survival things.

LEARNING CENTER is the next stop where the children will be fed by a lot of informations regarding to dolphins and whales. To Start with, dolphins are not a fish they are just a fish like mammal creature. They also breath every 15 minutes, so there's a big possibility for them to get drowned. Because they are breathing, like other animals they also have nose which can be located on the top of their head. Their tail fluke is the strongest part of their bodies because it contains a pure muscle.

Most of the dolphins they have in OCEAN ADVENTURE are just rescued from Japan. Because in Japan they haunt dolphins to use as their fertilizers. Because the japanese fishermen see them as a pests for a reason that they eat fish that caused fishermen to caught smaller amount of fish than usual.

                  For the finale, we watched the DOLPHIN SHOW where a lot of trained dolphins do some tricks such as spinning, dancing, nodding and etc. This is the most enjoyable part for me, they are sooooo cuuuute. and it is my very first time to see a dolphin.  Very entertaining show. :D

               Same with sea lions, dolphins are given a fish as a reward to every tricks they performed.

             after the show we then proceed to souvenir shops to buy some souvenirs and went back to the bus to proceed to the last destination which is the Duty free.

In DUTY FREE I just bought some candies and we had our merienda there then afterwards went back to the bus. after an hour the bus continue moving going back to Bulacan. At 8:30pm we are already at home.

             I've enjoyed the whole trip, specifically the Sea lion and dolphin show. I loooooovve those dolphins and wanna take them home! haha.

 Subic is such a nice place. NICE FIELDTRIP! I hope we had this during my high school years.
