Avilon Zoo in Rodriguez, Rizal
2008-04-14 17:27:00 Avilon Zoo is the best zoo within the vicinity of Metro Manila. At 7.5 hectares, it's also the largest in the country. As Manila Zoo continues to deteriorate (what do you expect from a government zoo that lacks the proper funding for rehabilitation), it is these private endeavors that fill in for the need for quality recreational and educational facilities for Filipinos. Since it was a holiday last April 7, my family planned a visit to Avilon Zoo as soon as I arrived from Tablas.Getting there was a bit confusing since there was a lack of visible directional signs from San Mateo. You had to proceed to the town proper of Rodriguez (formerly Montalban) and from there, you could ask around how to get to the zoo. The first directional sign I noticed was away from the National Highway where they should have been to help visitors locate the park.We finally arrived at Avilon Zoo after passing through a dirt road. I expected the municipal government to have cemented this road long before gi...

Touring the Disney Theme Parks has never been so easy...or talkative!
2008-01-25 22:46:00 Here's a stuffed toy that's great for kids, but can also help you get around the Disney Theme Parks (Magic Kingdom, Epcot Center, Animal Kingdom and Disney Hollywood Studios). Let me introduce Pal Mickey! Pal Mickey works on infrared technology that is set up in all of Disney's Orlando theme parks. While walking around the park, Pal Mickey will start to giggle and shake, meaning that he has something "important" to tell you! To hear what Mickey has to say, simply press his hand, and he will tell you information that is relevant to where you are in the park. Maybe it's attraction information, or if you are near a character meet-and-greet or maybe even parade or show times. He also remembers where you are, and where you have been, so he is not repeating himself! He is also programmed with many other sayings, so when you leave the theme parks, he stays interesting for kids. It's a great toy that kids will love, and it's also a very ...

South Korea doubles up, now getting two robot theme parks
2007-11-14 15:54:00 Filed under: Robots Thrill seekers and robot admirers alike can mark South Korea down as a must-see destination in the coming years, as it will soon be home to not one, but two robot theme parks. Yeah, we already knew that one of these fantasmical places were on the planning block, but just today the Commerce Ministry "announced a proposal to build two parks by 2013 for $1.6 billion." Reportedly, each park will mesh culture and entertainment with robot technology, and while one will be built in Incheon, the other will be erected some 242 miles south of Seoul in the port city of Masan. A feasibility study slated for next year is apparently the only piece of red tape still holding this project back, but if the bigwigs in South Korea shut the whole thing down, we'll gladly take 'em here on this side of the pond.[Image courtesy of SciFi] Read | Permalink | Email this | CommentsOffice Depot Featured Gadget: Xbox 360 Platinum System Packs the power to bring games to ...

Theme Parks
2007-10-24 04:52:00 I am crazy about theme park rides especially ones that cause your heart to do flip flops and the blood rush to your head. I love the opportunity to scream at the top of my lungs without having people think I am mad and it is a stress reliever, if not anything else.Theme Parks have roller coasters and I really want to go on the one with the loops. The adrenalin rush I get is amazing and I hope when age catches up, I won't ever lose my nerve.I once saw an old woman up on a theme park ride where 2 opposing swings circle and at one point turns upside down. People were getting off the ride all wobbly and disoriented but she came out right as rain and as straight faced as it would be, if she was just walking in the park!Imagine this ride where your legs are dangling in mid air while you fly!I only know of a friend who sits on these exciting rides and still not feel the rush. His threshold for these things must be really high - he watched me scream, bemused and even wanted to take a pictu...

Bullshattuck Earns Minimum Wage at Most Theme Parks
2007-06-15 20:00:00 Yesterday Bullshattuck had the privilege of visiting Lagoon Park (whose official marketing slogan is: "The Fun Starts here! It Looks Like Someone Forgot To Tell Your Face!"). For the uninitiated, Lagoon is Utah's largest 'amusement park,' although to be honest, I can't say they're among fierce competition. After visiting Lagoon yesterday, may I share... A few observations by Bullshattuck about Themed Amusement Parks: EVERY THEMED AMUSEMENT PARK HAS DIPPIN' DOTS: ICE CREAM FROM THE FUTURE If your future happens to be 1987. EVERY THEMED AMUSEMENT PARK HAS EMPLOYEES WHOSE LIST OF PRIORITIES DOES NOT INCLUDE GOING THROUGH PUBERTY One of the requirements for working at such amusement establishments is to have a low IQ that is rivaled only by your lower self-esteem. EVERY THEMED AMUSEMENT PARK HAS FOOD THAT MUST BE MADE IN MONTHLY PAYMENTS AND REQUIRES A DOWN PAYMENT That $28 price tag for the hot dog is justified, when you consider that it's made out of pig int...
