Melbourne Aquarium



Melbourne Aquarium

Marley and I took Michelle to the aquarium to celebrate her birthday... It is an expensive venture, more then the zoo for less entertainment, however on entry you are presented with the penguin enclosure... This is by far the best thing about the aquarium, and I wish it was the last thing you saw so you could walk away with the feeling of awe that you do on first sighting... It's massive, and cold and white, feels good on the eyes... The penguins are right there next to you just chillin, Marley loved them and didn't want to move from the first window, eventually we got her around to the big window and then the swimming area... Truly magnificent and worth every penny of entry...
The rest is okay, there are a LOT of fish, loads of tanks, frogs, turtles, even dragons and lizard types... The walk under the huge tank is good, you could spend a lot of time there, just watching the fish and sharks go by...
It was a really nice time, and we will go back another time, but it is expensive for what it is...
