28 Jun 2013 - S.E.A. Aquarium at Resort World Sentosa

Jerlene and Javier woke up pretty early today as we plan to visit S.E.A. Aquarium at Resort World Sentosa, the world’s largest aquarium accredited by GUINNESS WORLD RECORDS™.  Since last night, they had already started preparing their back packs.  I can see that they were extremely excited about this trip.
The first enclosure that we were in contains a monumental shipwreck.  Here we saw different species of fishes seeking refuge near or within the shipwreck.
In most aquarium, including those that we had visited overseas, the most fascinating creatures captured on photos are the jellyfish.  Under the different coloured lightings, jellyfish has the "power" to mesmerize all visitors.
The other main attraction is a huge central water tank where we can come very close to giant rays, sharks, groupers and other open ocean marine life.
During this trip, I was amazed by Jerlene's knowledge of all these marine life, especially the sharks.  She is able to identify the different kind of sharks, namely Tiger Sharks, Lemon Sharks and Hammerhead Sharks.  She also told us that the biggest shark is the Great White Shark.  After that, she continued to boast her knowledge about other creatures in the ocean.  For example, she told us Blue Whale is the largest animals in the world.  She said she learned all these from the teacher in childcare centre.
We spent more than an hour in the aquarium before leaving for our lunch at Malaysia Food Street.
