PBW---Aqua World, Oarai Ibaraki

---Aqua World, Ibaraki Prefecture---

One of the best features of Aqua World contains for more than 15,000 aquatic animals and 350 different species, it also has a lot of collection of sharks. The place is huge and absolutely amazing! The aquarium also has tropical display and variety of winter penguins. First thing that we did when we went there was to watch a dolphins and sea lions show--there were four dolphins performing some fun tricks and they had synchronized swimming. Wakaba and Haruka loved the tricks of the dolphins and sea lions and to our surprise after watching the show, my SIL and family was there, too! We talked for awhile then part ways and went to eat a buffet lunch together with us after exploring at the aquarium. Well anyway, it was a bit crowded but it was expected for it was a weekend, a great trip for us and it can take the entire day to explore. I was delighted by the tunnel that we walk through with the sea animals above us and nevertheless, the kids had a close encounter through hands-on and exhibits at the museum--it was a pleasant and educational experience for them ^_^
