Great shot with KLCC as backdrop, isn't it so?
This the place we were checking out that fine day.
It's not opened yet! Though we received news it would be opened at 10am, the notice, without any notice, noticed us it's opening at 11am. As we wanted to make full use of our money we are going to pay for it, we decided to start embarking on our journey of discovery after lunch. Furthermore, the queue was freakin long, mostly with students of little ones to teens. It was very crowded in the constraint space of the basement. So, we walked through the long few kms tunnel to KLCC. The kids were still excited with joy, so no complaints so far.
Visited the children's toilet in a shopping mall, they were fascinated with the tiny sizes of everything in there.
It would be good to have one of this at home...
All dolled up to invite attention from the public. Waiting in demure to go inside the ocean now.
Ah, here we were...finally! After months of talk about it, we were here to check the place out. Be aware that no food and drinks are allowed inside, and you are not allowed to re-enter after you came out from the aquaria. I realised that there's no loo in there as well, so, before you enter, make sure you won't be hungry for the next 1 hour (or more if you intend to spend more time) and flush out all your "waste" before you go in.
These lights are enough to entertain the little ones. So difficult to convince them to move on.
A pool of different fishes and a big turtle (if you observe carefully at the middle top of the picture)
Someone was really fascinated about this whole thing. That one little turtle is a real good swimmer indeed!
This touch pool is the favorite hanging spot for this baby girl. Clearly the guts of one little girl is more than the guts combined for 2 boys.
The main attraction of the place.. underwater world.. tunnel of discovery. Anticipating the oohs and aahs from the children, what a letdown. One was intrigued of the travelator, the other was like fearful the sharks would escape and eat him up, the youngest one was blurr like a sotong. One good way, or so we thought, to make the entrance fee worthy was to go a few rounds on this. We made 3 trips, interesting, huh? But basically, we went round and round to make ourselves feel better only.
A nice close up encounter with the sharks. Pity them though. Imagine someone waves your favorite food right under your nose and when you want to have it, damn! you knock on the glass panel!
This is what I called a cool aquarium to have at home.
All in all, a good family outing venue indeed. But if you have been to one aquaria, you've been to all. Don't waste your money going in for a 2nd time, even if you are in another country, unless you are freakin fascinated about life in the ocean and you can't dive. The best thing to get the money worthy is to read all the names and descriptions of the fishes there. And know how to differentiate them too, for all I know, the fishes almost look identical to me, only the difference might be the sizes.
It was a great day, if it hadn't been for the blardy @#$%& idiot who "stole" my brand new books I bought from this K bookshop, blardy expensive books they are. I put the bag of books on the table while I went buying lunch, and after lunch, I realised it was GONE!!! VANISHED!!! Why somebody would be so greedy to make such robbery? Would had been glad if he/she asked me for money, I'll be so willing to contribute as a generous donation to this pathetic idiot.Sigh.. Pardon me...
Anyway, it's a fact... don't go shopping with children. Either you lose your shopping bags or you lose the children.
