On Friday, it was another overcast, windy day with a few showers, so we decided to visit the Sydney Aquarium. What a fantastic place. They have recreated the Great Barrier Reef inside the Aquarium. We got to walk under the water (in glass tunnels) to look at the fish swimming around us. We also took the glass bottom boat ride to view them from the top.
It was a great way to spend an afternoon.
Yes, this is the famous Duck Billed Platypus
Lots of weird creatures of the sea.
Lots of pretty coloured fish
Who doesn't love the Penguins
Lots of Sting Rays and Sharks
Sleeping Leopard Shark
Lots of colouful vegetation
Fish feeding frenzy
That aquarium looks awesome! I'm so glad you got to see the platypus, what trip to Australia would be complete without a platypus :)
ReplyDeleteThe girls were really excited to hear about the platypus. Not surprisingly, Caitlin knew about them and their "duck beak and beaver tail". She wasn't sure if they had webbed feet or not. I'll show them the picture tonight so they can see.
