Aquarius

dayum water,  you got fishes and stuff

So, the Sydney Aquarium.. quite a famous aquarium known for it's location in Sydney (Darling Harbour) to be specific. I haven't been to an aquarium in ages and have been itching to go ever since.( it's like a zoo,... but with more water!! awesome). To be honest, I've been to this particular aquarium when I was about 11-12?... sometime before puberty. Well it wasn't very impressive back then, but I've realized I've attained an appreciation for aquatic life since then.  The aquarium (any aquarium) is.... phenomenal.  
a plethora of .... water stuff
HEY GUYS
The Sydney aquarium is more of a walk through than an exploration of wildlife. It didn't matter to me, I get to see all the exhibits and weird looking fish. The perfect tour, it you ask me. I'm quite fond of weird looking fish.. seeing how something can be so ugly and still living is beyond me (just kiddin'). Nah, but foreal, there are some funky lookin' fish that look like they were pulled out of a twisted fairy tale. There's a bunch of different areas: crab-land, shark-land, etc... can't really remember, but it was all pretty cool (tip: if you ever go to the Sydney aquarium, get the tickets online,  hella cheap). So we saw huge ass crabs, confused sharks, and many lost schools of fish.  I expected to be amazed, but I was astounded (not sure if that is more dramatic than amazed, but you get then point). Such a nice walk-through with a fantastic? view of the reefs and coral. I think, one of the most memorable parts were the under water tunnels or viewing of the big aquarium. I've realized, in recent years, I've not appreciated aquatic life enough and well,... this was a great eye opener to what I was missing out.  DAYMN, these fish be crazy!! Chainsaw fish, unicorn fish.... to be honest, they don't look that tasty, but it was all cool, they looked pretty sweet. (can you imagine, having a chainsaw for a nose?/ think about all the things you could dice up: tomatoes, potatoes, etc)... it seemed Australia has it's fair share of exotic animals, and the seas are no exception.  


Well, as far as the ocean life, I am quite impressed.  It's no secret that OZ has some of the most creative (read: abstract) wildlife (and i haven't been to the reef), but if the aquarium is any representation of the real world... dat ocean.    haha
