Being usually not so much of the fishie fan, the Aquaria visit did portray a fascinating impression of sea creatures! Together with JV, Missa, JJ, Jon, Keith and Bue, we were off for our yf class outing. Having payed a reasonably large sum for the entry, pictures are of course a must to take home at the very least. So here are some (poorly) taken pics of God's amazing creations. Don't mind the phone camera quality.
(sidetrack) Here are some random Melbourne pics to start with...
maybe this is common, i don't know.
these are real humans, in..cement/clay!
they were posing motionless...
or you have a name for that..?
it took awhile to snap a decent pic.
but they are cute lil' things.
can't imagine eating yummy them!
spot the bird!
he was flaunting his wings arrogantly,
and for a very long time!
the beautiful view along Yarra river.
when i need a time out, i know where to go.
And now, Aquaria...
first things first, the Piranha!
doesn't look as ferocious, does it?
misconceptions of ppl, poor thing.
he is (tad) hideous,
he is unknown.
the catfish! got to touch it.
i must say those stupid kids were pretty
aggressive with her. felt like smacking em'.
Chinese fire-bellied newt.
it crawls around in the water,
ultra cute.
this, the opposite. it is MOTIONLESS!
now that explains the better pic quality.
presenting...
Albino african clawed frog.
Potbelly seahorse anyone?
the Fire shrimp.
beauty in red.
this is cute.
the Water rat.
Chambered nautilus.
the mighty Octopus!
ahh the potent...
its the Moon jelly!
simply stunning.
one of the most unique looking.
sideview.
the Leaf scorpionfish.
This is not a fish. Yes, it is Jonathan Wee! Since i was asked to come out with an idea for a little 'celebration' for his belated bday, its always good to do it the 'embarrassing' way! So from fish porridge breakie onwards, he had to wear his plate and crown throughout the outing. And boy did it work! Passerbys wished him Happy Birthday, some (typical Asians) gave him stares, and well, the Aquaria staffs actually set us all up and gathered us at the "theater to feed the fish" and together with the crowd, everyone sang 'Happy Birthday'. Must be his best birthday ever. epic.
As much as i yearned for my sweet Saturday sleep-in, the Aquaria and class outing experience wasn't as bad as I thought, after all. Bimbo moments, crazy jokes and laughters, a pretty sea experience, and some good relationship-building. The End. :)
