If people say you cannot have too much vacation, don’t believe them because you can. On day 6 of our 7-day stay in Hong Kong, we went to Ocean Park. It was a fun-filled theme park and I highly recommend it to anyone visiting Hong Kong. If you are torn between Hong Kong Disneyland and Ocean Park, and most of you are grown-ups then choose Ocean Park. However, we did not get to enjoy the rides so much because we were already quite burned out from the past 5 days roaming around Hong Kong mostly by foot.

 

Ocean Park is divided into two major areas – The Waterfront and The Summit. The Waterfront contains most of the animal shelters and kiddie rides while the Summit has the adult thrill rides and the Ocean Theatre. To go from the Waterfront to the Summit, you need to take the cable car or the train. I think you can also walk through the trails but it might be a very long walk. You need to do the same thing to go back from the Summit to the Waterfront.

Gerry’s Grill is bringing in a popular concept in the fast casual restaurant dine-in scene. It is known as the  “Kusina ng Gerry’s” – a do it yourself  restaurant, which is close to the heart of many Pinoy foodies. Growing up, we are all exposed to having home-cooked meals in many turo-turo (literally point-point). This is the same concept Gerry’s Grill is trying to bring back. Since we are familiar with turo-turo dining, we will definitely relate easily with Kusina ng Gerry’s.
