Manila Ocean Park

I have been reading tons of articles on people’s visits to the Manila Ocean Park located behind the Quirino Grandstand and have been wanting to go to see this now famous oceanarium. We finally got our chance during the long weekend.

My family and I planned our trip for early morning hopefully to avoid the crowds. Unfortunately, ensuring that everyone gets packed, fed and ready to go is not an easy feat. This is especially with 2 boys… well 3 if you count my hubby. Haha. Still we arrived early enough to park easily and jump in line to the entrance.

For arts and music on the street, there’s only one place that comes on my mind, the
Cubao Expo aka Cubao X. After being lost and lurking around, I made a successful drop at the artists fair event called “KABUWANAN SA CUBAO EXPO”. It’s like that I’m at home seeing old folks during the scene I left years ago,Its like a nostalgia manila mania for me. Saw lots of exhibits, sculptures, bargain books, customized, useful and useless items.

Debbie Shank and Zimbabwe Elections Update

Debbie Shank Vs Wal-Mart
I received a comment from my reader telling that Wal-Mart has finally gave in to the numerous online petition. Wal-Mart will not seek the $400,000 money from Debbie Shank and hopefully this incident would warn companies against exploiting their employees. This issue is not about who’s right and who’s wrong.
