Enchanted Kingdom 2010

Fun, fun, fun day at EK despite the humidity and heat. We were kind of expecting that there would only be a few people crazy enough to go to EK and endure the heat, but surprisingly, it was a jam-packed afternoon. There were even three companies having their annual summer outing, Ginebra San Miguel, Chowking and yours truly.

I did not take a lot of photos though because everytime I try to take a shot, people would get in the way (that's how crowded it was)















We rode the usual rides: bump cars, which I do not get tired of; space shuttle, anchors away, which made stomachs queasy and heads ache, and the carousel. We wanted to try the other rides, especially Rio Grande but the lines were too long and with the humidity, one's patience in the line can be very short. Thus, we just went to those places that requrie a separate entrance fee, and there were virtually no lines.

4D Discovery Theater, P60 with regular pass holders

We had fun at the 4D  discovery theater watching/interacting with Dora the Explorer.

SRR:X!!! P50 with regular pass holders

The highlight of the EK adventure was the SRR:X!!!. I think this is a new feature because I did not notice this last year. We almost skipped this because the EK map did not give any description, it only says SRR:X, we did not know what SRR:X* means or what kind of entertainment it was. Good thing, the PA system in EK advertised it saying prepare to sream with matching "scary" voice, so I figured this was a horror house. Boy oh boy, the PA was really serious about the screaming thing. It was really a scary but fun horror house. I really got scared, we all got scared. The lighting or scarcity of it and the eerie and creepy silence of the house had a really scary effect on the psyche. We were all huddled up behind J (we were six in the group) while walking through the house and screaming like crazy. This was scarier than the one at the Universal Studios, Los Angeles. Love it!

*I checked the EK website today, SRR:X means Shake, Rattle and Roll: The Experience.
