Enchanted Kingdom

After months of preparation and searching from the internet, I am finally going to Enchanted Kingdom. Although, I have been in Universal Studio in Singapore, this trip still excites me because I'm with my Yabz.

September 8, 2012 was the day for the adventure. In my hotel room, Yabz Bong brought me breakfast, the Filipino's favorite and easy to cook food "Adobong Baboy" with rice and Buko Salad.

Pinoy Breakfast

After eating, we immediately went to Boni MRT Station going to Ayala Station to catch the 10:30am ride of the shuttle van going to Sta. Rosa, Laguna. When we arrived at the station, we went down to EDSA Car Park, Ayala Center. At the far end of the Parking Area we saw the "Enchanted Kingdom" van for hire. 

The round trip fare was 360 pesos. They were also selling a package ticket for Enchanted Kingdom (round trip ride Ayala Center to Enchanted Kingdom and vice versa and the Ride All You Can Ticket) and since it was a Saturday, weekend fee applies, the total price was 810 pesos each. We took the package and saved 50 pesos.

 To Enchanted Kingdom

The travel was very comfortable, there were no rough rode going to Sta. Rosa and no traffic. And the driver played good music too. After an hour we arrived at Enchanted Kingdom, then we proceed to Group Sales  window to exchanged our voucher for a ticket to get inside the amusement park.

Foods and Drinks are Not Allowed inside the park. So, we have to eat all the foods we brought from Manila outside the vicinity. (No Choice).

After finishing our baon and had a little rest; we were finally going inside the park. So excited! But before we can enter the park, the lady guard put our green bracelet tag, indicating what package we bought.

The tour starts.

Inside EK

The first thing we did was watched a 4D movie. There was no line for the movie and we had the place all for ourselves except for a couple of friends who came in just before the movie started.

4D

The show was just a typical 4D show and I believed this is for the kids but my Yabz enjoyed it. :)

The park's highlight ride: SPACE SHUTTLE. We just took some pictures and not experienced its thrill because we were both afraid, hahaha.. :D

Inside the park there were a lot of games to choose from, for only 50 pesos. Bong, tried to play the Make The Bottle Stand, using a wooden fish rod, and he failed. Better luck next time, yabz.. :)

He also played the Amazon Hoop, and won a stuff toy of my choosing. He also played the Dart The Balloon, and won a small fish. I tried but lost.

The rides. On our way to our first ride we met some clowns.

The first ride we had was the ANCHORS AWAY. It was a fun ride. It feels like my stomach have butterflies. ENJOY! I forgot to take some pictures because I was traumatized by the ride.  

The next ride was the Wheel of Fate. I was so scared about this ride, because of the heights. I really hate heights, but I managed to smile for the camera. :))

After 2 rides, more tours and we were able to pass by the most extreme ride in EK: EKSTREME. I could not do this, too scary for me.

Then, we had a snack at the EK food court. I had my first DQ, so delicious. I had Caramel and Nuts Blizzard and Yabz had Strawberry Cheesecake Blizzard. While eating, they have their entertainment show, The Icons featuring: Lady Gaga, Michael Jackson, Slash, Axel Rose, Elvies and so much more.

After eating, we had our third ride: Log Jam. The experienced was exciting and wet! :D

Since we were wet, we decided to ride the Riogrande Rapids. My polo, shorts, underwear and shoes are all wet and so as Yabz's. This really got me all wet compared to Jurassic Park Ride in Singapore. I was forced to buy a new shirt. (Rapids open at 2 pm)

We rested for a while, changed our clothes, dry ourselves up and ate some hot-dogs. But we didn't managed to keep ourselves dry because of the rain. At around 6:30 pm the rain stopped and we were able to take some pictures of the park at night.

And because of the rain, we decided to have an in-door ride/show: Rialto Journey to the Center of the Earth: The Ride.

Then we had our dinner at the food court. We wanted to ride the Wheel of Fate again and witness the beauty of Sta. Rosa at night, but the line was long and so was the Swan Lake ride. So, we just rested inside the food court and watched the a band playing while waiting for the fireworks display at 9 pm.

After the firework display, we left the park, and look for the shuttle van that will give us a ride back to Manila.

We have missed a lot of rides that we should have experienced. But there always be a next time.
