Up along the west coast of the island is the most extraordinary aquarium ever! Here are a few shots that we wanted to share!
The view of the ocean from the main pavilion:

Here is a group shot in the same pavilion:

Very nifty flower sea creatures:

So during the cool "dolphin/I am not quite sure what this animal is called but it is beautiful" show, this guy jumped up and stuck is tongue out at us :o) Again, ocean in the background!

Such a talented dolphin! Anyone else having flashes of "Hitchhikers Guide to the Galaxy" ? And again, I reiterate - ocean in the background.

Group shot in front of the fish, once we were inside the aquarium.

Oh look! Its Nemo and Dori! (And my own personal take on a fish impression)

So this is, as I understand it, the largest aquarium in the world! And yes, that is a real whale/large shark swimming by the vast amounts of people. Beautiful and surreal.

Obligatory shot in the sharks mouth:

Shark asleep on top of the tunnel:

And that is about all for the aquarium! It was an absolutely unforgettable experience!

this is like the awesomest blog ever! it is so great to follow what is going on WHILE it is going on.
plus, I think it will work out best to your advantage: you get to share the excitement while it is exciting, so when you return, you don't have to recreate the whole experience for all of us(meaning, you won't have to talk as much about it ;) you can just say to the inquisitive: I blogged about it every day while I was there, go check it out. Pictures with complete captions! Wonderful!
What a great trip! you tell the story well!
aw :o) Thanks Heather-san :o) I'm having a blast writing it - plus it helps feel like you (and you all) are with me! SOOOO glad you are enjoying it! love - tante sissy.
