Aquamarine Park (Dolphin Island)

dingdans — Wed, 25 Jun 2008 19:14:50 +0000

Hello guys long time no post..:-) Supposed to be this adventure of us with my partner will be post on the first week of June but since I don’t have time to make some article on our tour to Dolphin Island at Aquamarine Park, so I decided to find time to make update in this blog in spite of my busy time .
This is our second time to go in this place the Aquamarine Park in MOAP at (SINACABAN). In our first visit there last December 2007 we did not get some pictures of dolphins because our cam was low bat already.. But we promise to go back at this place to get pictures and experience some adventure things just like snorkeling, swim with the dolphins, kayak and some adventure things. When you visit this place it is nice and you can imagine that you are in many Zoos where in they have some common animals that we could see. They have Crocodile, Lawin, Monkeys and some wild life animal that is common to see in our eyes. Some tourists like this place because they have fish pond where in you can do some fishing with your friends or to your family.

But before we visit the aquamarine park there is a person who contact me about the las vegas flights that used to be the cheapest flights. Ever since the flights to amsterdam got cheaper, it has been striving hard for its market. According to the hotel guide information, now it is third, with the flights to london next to the first. But we decided to visit the aquamarine park. So last week of May 2008 we visit again the Aquamarine park and visit the again the Dolphin Island. To go to Dolphin Island you need to pay an intrans which is 200 pesos each per person. Going to Dolphin Island you need to ride a boat and travel 10-15 minutes, during your travel to go to Dolphin Island you will notice some big mountains and the beautiful nature that we have. You can observe also Manggos tree that they plant for some spices in the sea. When we arrived at the Dolphin Island we go directly to snorkeling place where in both of us are so excited to experience it. You need to pay; I think that was 20 or 30 pesos per hour for the snorkeling and 250 pesos for swim with the dolphins. We have great day at Dolphin Island and we enjoy so much. After our adventure at Aquamarine Park we stay in Daminar at Oroquieta. They have low rate in their rooms and they have swimming Pool for the people who will stay at their resort. It was a nice resort because they are in a river side where it is very clean. We already done at Dolphin Island, our next destination is the Bantayan Island which is located at visayas in Cebu city.

Will this year is a great year for me. I have many place in my mind that I would like to visit this year, I got 3 places in my list. 1st place in my list the Camiguin island, I would like to experience the white sand of camiguin island. I think by month of april first week that will be the time we will go to Camiguin. The 2nd place is the DAKAK, Our tour in this place will in the month of april also. The 3rd place in my list is the Bohol, we will go back to bohol when in this year, but this time we go with our friends.Our plan is to make a round trip to bohol. Its better to tour first to our own country and explore things in nature to our beloved country. Hopefully by next year we can visit the Boracay which is one of the beautiful place in our country. If we could not visit Boracay by next year hopefully by 2010 we can visit this place:-)

Our tour to Dipolog City with my partner

dingdans — Sat, 29 Dec 2007 12:57:08 +0000

From MOAP to Oroquieta (The Green City of the Philippines) to Dipolog City (The Orchid City of the Philippines). That was our trip in one day during we tour last November 2007. We reach to Dipolog City because my partner and me want to witness the opening of the Gloria De Dapitan. Gloria De Dapitan is like a world of fun where in you will enjoy in playing their toys. The place have a carnaval, bomb car and many to mention, I saw lots of parents their having enjoyed in the place and while watching their children play they are enjoying in the VIDEOKE to sing their favorite songs. Gloria De Dapitan is a seaside place, which is a very nice place for the family bonding. The opening was so nice and lots of beautiful fireworks are there I think. Not only the people of Dipolog witness the opening of the Gloria De Dapitan but also people far away in Dapitan, just like us we were from Cagayan de Oro City.

After in Gloria De Dapitan we decide to go to sea breeze café it is a restobar, which has a live band, the food and drinks are affordable. The bar is a seaside and overlooking place. When we finish jamming in sea breeze café we go to boulevard and eat some ballot there…ahehe…Boulevard is a seaside park of dipolog and it is a very nice place to relax after work, you can witness the sunset and sunrise in this park. I observe also that Boulevard Park during dawn there are many people jogging in this place. Dipolog is a nice place to explore. 15 minutes travel away from dipolog you can reach the Dakak bay where in our next destination next year to my partner. Here are our pictures taken at dipolog city.

After this tour we decided to visit some other country where our budget can afford to the place we go. Think that there is the mexicana airlines have always been popular for their cheap airline tickets. The alaskan airlines are trying to beat them by offering free hotel motel information to their customers

Our travel to Oroquieta City(The Green City of the Philippines)

dingdans — Sun, 16 Dec 2007 07:56:15 +0000

After in MOAP our next destination is the Oroquieta City. We don’t have planned to go to Oroquieta in that travel because our main destination is only the MOAP place. But we both agree that instead we will stay in MOAP place we will stay at Oroquieta, because it’s to expensive in MOAP to stay coz we are only 2. Around 4 pm we travel going to oroquieta The Green City of the Philippines. The travel hour from MOAP to Oroquieta is about 1 hour and 30 minutes. My observation during our trip going to Oroquieta is that the place is so clean and they have some warning billboards about how to care the nature. Oroquieta City is just a small city but it is the cleanest city I’ve ever visited. But did you know guys that Oroquieta had derived its name from the word ‘ORO’ and ‘KITA’. The early inhabitants then had found gold along the river. The name ‘ORO’ which means Gold and ‘QUITA’ or ‘KITA’ which means to find. We spend only few hours to stay in Oroquieta coz after that we go to dipolog, The Orchid City of the Philippines. I’ve got only few pictures in Oroquieta the Green City of the Philippines.

MOAP tour with my partner

First I featured MOAP, which is located at Ozamiz city Misamis Occidental last November 2007. But this month also November 30,2007 I’ve visit the AQUAMARINE RESORT which the MOAP. The place is located at barangay sinacaban along the highway; it is easy to find the MOAP because they have a big board welcoming all there visitors on their entrance. When we reach the place we saw many students that having their tour in MOAP. You need 10 peso bill to enter the place, they are so strict in terms of food; no food allowed inside the resort and the guard will inspect you before entering the place to assure that there will be no food that can be pass.

The first you will saw in there entrance is there fish pond where in many tourist have fun of fishing when we there, the pond was so big and its so clean. They have also a wild life zoo where you can saw different animals there; when we are there I saw monkey, crocodile, manatad, eagle and many more…I didn’t remember the others..aehhe..sorry for that. After to they’re many zoos we go to their restaurant where in located at the middle of the sea. The food was so delicious and fresh to eat and while you eating you can see the beauty of the sea in front of you. In line to the restaurant you can see the boat where they can bring you to the dolphin island, which you will miss if you not go to that place. Dolphin Island is the famous place in MOAP where in most of the entire tourist will visit that place; it takes 30 minutes to travel to Dolphin Island. Okay here’s our picture during we been there at MOAP.

Nice Background.
