The Aquarium!!

We wanted to go to the Taronga Zoo at first, but then, the weather forecast said that there will be showers throughout the weekend or something. And so...we changed our plan to see the fishes and marine creatures instead.
The Aquarium is located at Darling Harbour. 11 of us gathered there sometime after lunch. Yeah, there were ELEVEN of us, because we wanted to purchase the group ticket (28% off normal rates), but the bad news was, the group discount does not apply for student rates. Hmph~ Anyway, we paid AUD22.50 per person as entrance fee. Pretty expensive huh~
 PENGUINSSS!!!!
There were many types of nice marine animals there. I love the huge turtles and dugongs, and I enjoy watching the penguins most!! Owh you just can't imagine how cute are they!
There were also quite a lot of dangerous and apparently scary ones, like the huge stingray, sharks, and jelly fish. But sometimes, I still do think that they look cute. Haha.

The whole tour took us around 2 hours.
Most of us thought that the aquarium should be a HUGE one. Well, I wouldn't say it is small, but everything's pretty much below our expectations. But we did have a good time together.

And owh by the way, it was so sunny on that day. The weather forecast is so unreliable.
