Walking around the big aquarium and we’re greeted with various kinds of fish.

Some are so weird, you don’t even spot them. Can you spot the fish in the picture?

Then there was this small pond outside of the aquarium facing the seaside. Kids were surrounding the round pond and putting their little hands into the water just to have a soft touch of the sea animals.

So i’ve touched them as well, now Animal Planet can call me to host a ‘Stringray Show’. :mrgreen: Look at this fella down there, nicely flapping it’s own fin? on itself.

So we walk back into the aquarium and look at MORE funny fishes.

Fuh part of the picture is missing! Star shape summore! Then moving on, first, we see baby jellyfishes! Then bigger jellyfishes, then BIG ASS JELLYFISHES!

These creatures are on the verge of extinction.

Have you ever seen a blue fish?

04050851

04050848

Look at its body. Fruity?

04050858

Took me a minute or two to wait for its head to come down so i can take a shot of it. If not, you’ll only see it’s tail moving here and there.

Now, to the interesting parts. We went onto this moving path where you can see all the big fishes above you. I caught this interesting shot.

This is my favourite photo of all the photos taken. Sunshine from above casting it’s shine on the shark making this a remarkable photo. :razz: I’m not praising myself here.

Lastly, the highlight of the aquarium.

You know how these aquariums will have a small gift shop at the end of the trip right? They have this 2 boxes where you put coins into it, turn the button and your item will come out? In this shop, they have their one of a kind coin, it’s either the leafy seadragon or another animal which i have forgotten. I bought the leafy seadragon one as it’s nicer la. Mind you, i only spotted that machine when everyone was out except me and my father and the machine only wants coins. I’ve used up all my coins and my father isnt the coin keeping person but i gave it a shot anyway, LUCKILY he have the final last 2 dollar coin in his pocket and i got it. Will post a picture of the coin soon. :mrgreen:
