The Aquarium....on the 18th...

In a previous post I forgot something...

After we took Tom and Anne back to the airport, we decided to take a trip to the Aquarium in Ma'alaea...It's located right on the harbor there and at any time we could look up and see whales breaching and blowing, beautiful boats gently bouncing in the harbor , the smell of the sea... Awesome...

Jim didn't even complain when it came time to pay....
I'll let the pix do the talking...

Flowers of the sea, beautiful barnacles....
I just loved this guy....

Cool serene, calm, wise sea turtle... they kep them for 2 years and then let them go to sea.
Hey Rory, Can you see the fish?
 
The jelly fish were white, the light, fluorescent...
There's a link to a long (and we think cool) video of them...

 Warning: it's a long video... I was thinking Rory might like it....



Looks like something out of Alien, but they are growing coral to rehabilitate reefs that are dying and/or endangered. Cool.

A whole crew of unicorn fish.... They just came up and hung around...


A view of the reef tank.....

Here's a link to the shark tank video-- it's too long too. Need to learn how to edit.
