Shanghai Oceanarium Experience

I’ve never been in Manila Ocean Park, that’s why i’m very thankful to my husband when he took me Shanghai Oceanarium. It’s quite expensive for 120 RMB per person. We saw different kinds of marine animals that I only saw in books before. The main focus of the Oceanarium are the different creatures that can be found in Yangtze River. According to Wikipedia:

The Yangtze River or Chang Jiang (simplified Chinese: ??; traditional Chinese: ??; pinyin: Cháng Ji?ng) is the longest river in Asia and the third longest in the world, after the Nile in Africa, and the Amazon in South America. The river is about 6,300 km long and flows from its source in Qinghai Province, eastwards into the East China Sea at Shanghai. It has traditionally been considered a dividing line between North and South China, although geographers consider the Qinling-Huai River line to be the official line of geographical division. As the largest river in the region, the Yangtze is historically, culturally, and economically important to China.

Can you imagine how many species we can find in the river? I wish Tifa were with us, so that she can also see those different species but I doubt that she can appreciate them because she’s only 15 months old. And I don’t think she can take the crowd because it’s holiday when we went there. I remember the Filipino family that we saw inside. Maybe the youngest child in the family were really tired and exhausted because of the cowd. He ddoesn’t want to take the picture anymore and his mother got pissed on the way he acted. He’s mother told him “UMUWI KA NA NGA!” When my husband and I heard it, we were really laughing. Maybe if only they’re in Manila Ocean Park the boy will really go home. But they’re in Shanghai and that is miles away from Philippines. The poor boy just cried, you can’t blame him because it’s really crowded inside. Just seeing the crowd makes me feel tired. The whole place were really nice, but I can appreciate it more if there were fewer people. My favorite of all are the Penguins. When I saw them I ffelt like crying. It’s my first time to see a penguin. Jologs ko no?!
