Today I went with Blake and Kurt to Sydney Aquarium.
Did you know that they have the best collection of sharks in the whole entire world? True story, I read it in a shark book I bought Blake the other day.
We went on the train and the tram to get there and we stopped and had Subway for lunch - Kurt fell asleep in the pram and stayed asleep until we got to the shark tunnels lol.
The Aquarium is really lots of great fun and I have not been there in so many years. Well, I went to 2 in Germany, but I have not been to the Sydney one in so long. I was really excited to go.
I would say that the sharks were my fave thing, but then I fell so in love with those little penguins that if the wall had not been there, I would have tried to take one home.I took far too many photos of them, let me put it to you like that. They even had this wave machine and when the waves came, the penguins came flying across the water, it was so cool. And they are so little and cute, I just want one.
We watched the seals have their feed. That was good fun too. I really liked the dark coloured one, it was cute.
The sharks were soooooooooo cool! They were over 10 times bigger than the ones I saw in Germany. And they did not swim as fast. Then again, we had little sharks too and they had all different species of sharks. It was really good fun. They had the huge rays and I even got to touch a sting-ray barb like the one that killed Steve Irwin. It was still sharp.
There is the tunnel where even the floor is see-through and when I was in it, a shark swam underneath my feet - how cool is that???!!!
^ Here is a movie of the seals having a swim!
Just some little fact for you German people to bring it all back to home LOL
The seals are hungry!!!
Yep, that is me with my hand patting a shark! That one is a 12 month old Port Jackson shark. And I also pat a smaller one that was only a few months old.
I want a fairy penguin ... no joke. I can adopt one for $50. I think I will.

oh thats really cool and very impressive aswell. i think the pingos are the coolest! i also like the sharks, i guess. and the touching shark... impressive. pretty cool. i like it. sounds like a cool day.
Germany is really small :(
But now I wanna go there. I think as long as I don´t have to see any big white sharks, I might be okay!
Well our aquarium is the best one to come to if you want to see sharks. And there are no great white sharks. We have sharks that look scary, but actually they are harmless. Twister, I showed you those pics already! And there is that giant size one, but he is fat and he swims reaalllllly slowly.
The pengions are so the best things there. I would have stayed there the whole day watching them if I could LOL.
