Mission Accomplished: Zoobic Safari!

This has been one of my goals last year na mapuntahan pero dahil busy hindi ko nagawa...

Overview:



How to Get There:

1. We boarded a bus in Victory Liner going to Olongapo at around 6am. May buses sila na via SCTEX (Subic-Clark-Tarlac Expressway) ang biyahe that leaves around 5:30am in the morning. Sadly, hindi kami umabot so yung regular route na lang ang sinakyan naming bus. The conductor said na 30 minutes lang naman daw ang difference ng biyahe. 
2. We reached Olongapo around 10am in the morning. Pagdating namin doon meron ng mga taxi drivers ang nag-ha-haggle sa amin na kunin silang service papuntang Zoobic Safari. They said mas mahal ang singil ng mga taxi sa loob ng Freeport Zone kesa sa kanila which is 600 pesos daw - one way (we discovered it's only 400 pesos when we asked the receptionist in Zoobic Safari). We decided na kunin na lang yung nangungulit sa amin for the whole day service at 2500 pesos (initially he is asking for 3500, thanks to my friends he agreed to 2500). The whole day service includes transportation going to any places you like in Subic (kami we include in our itinerary the following: Zoobic Safari, Ocean Adventure, and Duty Free). From Olongapo Terminal to Zoobic Safari is about 20-30 minutes travel time

Mission Accomplished: Avilon Zoo!

At last, first post ko!

Matagal ko ng gustong puntahan ang Avilon Zoo sa Montalban, Rizal kaso lagi akong busy kaya nung wala akong magawa at mapuntahan nitong nakaraang Holy Week naisipan namin na puntahan ito.

Ang Avilon Zoo ay nasa baryo ng San Isidro, Rodriguez (dating Montalban), Rizal. Medyo malayo ito sa main road at may rough road kapag malapit na sa site. Di ko kabisado ang direction papunta dun pero para mabigyan kayo ng background pwede nyong basahin dito.

Nagbayad kami ng P300 para sa entrance fee ng bawat isa, libre na ang mga kids na 4' below :)


Ang mga ibon na lumilipad... Ay gawa ng Diyos... Di kumukupas :D





 
Pwedeng hawakan at magpa-picture sa mga ibon for P50, 2 shots own camera :D   

The smart Trixie!
Syempre, pwede din magpa-picture kay Trixie for P50, 2 shots own camera

Orangutan ba ito or Gorilla? @_@
 All in all, pwedeng libutin ang Avilon Zoo ng 2 - 2 1/2 hours :D
