Most impressive thing about the Aquarium, I thought, was the large, female Octopus! She was draped all over her tank when we arrived before 9 a.m. on Wednesday, having been recently prodded away by an Aquarium employee with a long stick from her smaller, newer, male counterpart in the adjoining tank. (Apparently they sometimes eat one another in the wild!)
Also pretty neat, though, was the "conveyder belt" tank, as Simon likes to call it, with sharks and the like swimming all about. Fortunately, none of the sharks ate him for lunch.

My real favourite, though, were the sting rays... they were social, swimming up to the edge of the tank to say hello to their many admirers. But only a very few came close enough to the surface to allow themselves to be petted. "Glubby", was how Simon and I described the texture.
