Our Ocean Adventure

As promised in my previous post, here’s one of two videos taken from our guided park tour inside the Ocean Adventure (Subic, Olongapo) as part of our school field trip last Feb. 4.

The show held at the Nautilus Theater, features Simba, the popular sea lion member of the Sea Lion Marine Patrol team that teaches kids and adults about the value of 3Rs – reuse, reduce and recycle.

Plastic containers thrown in the sea pollute the water and kill cute sea creatures like Simba.

We were amazed at how Simba was trained to perform such tricks to the audience delight and entertainment. With Simba is co-actor Kuya Randy (the big fellow). (Mauie, thanks)

Watch the video now. Pardon the poor quality of sound.
