What do you do when you are
in Hong Kong and it is a really hot and humid
day? Go to Ocean Park Hong Kong and spend the day in the sun.
We all came home with
headaches and a bit of heat stroke, however, it was a really good day.
Ocean Park Hong Kong,
commonly known as Ocean
Park , is a marine mammal
park, oceanarium, animal theme park and amusement park, situated in Wong Chuk
Hang and Nam Long Shan in the Southern District of Hong Kong.
I do not think anyone could 'do'
all of Ocean Park in one day, so we just concentrated
on the areas we thought Jarvis would enjoy.
The park is separated by a
large mountain into two areas, The Summit (Headland) and The Waterfront
(Lowland). These areas can be reached by a cable car system, I am
such a wuss this was my favourite ride.
But, who knew Jarvis would
turn out to enjoy all of the rides even the roller coaster for adults. I could
hear his giggles the whole ride.
My tips for the park, you
will save money, and avoid the longest lines when entering the park, if you buy
your tickets online before going. We hired a stroller for Jarvis. Yes he is a
bit big, however it had a sunshade which kept him out of the sun. Plus it was
good to carry all our stuff. I actually saw lots of parent hiring wheelchairs
for their older children. Last tip, take snacks and water. Lot
of water.
We got stuck in a traffic jam
on the bus ride home from the park, but it was nice just to sit in the aircon
and look out the window.
That night we were still so
tired we just wandered up the road from our hotel and ordered (Justin ate) the
biggest pizza slices I have ever seen.
