Busan Aquarium

Hey everyone!

Another fun part of the orientation that we went to was going to the Busan Aquarium. The aquarium is located right on Haeundae Beach, and is actually entirely underground! It was a really cool thing being able to experience so much 'sea life' while being right next to the beach.

This shark was in a HUGE aquarium that had a glass tunnel running through it, giving us the feeling that we were inside the tank with the sharks. eek!

Bryan was even able to reach up and 'touch' one of the sharks in this cool tunnel aquarium.

This is one of the smaller circular tanks that featured teeny fish.

Jelly fish in a tank with a beautiful rainbow of lights shining through.

These black and white eels were super interesting. If you put your finger up to the glass, they would follow it wherever it moved.

I was mesmorised by this tank. It was probably 50 feet tall, and I could have sat there and watched the fish swim around for hours.... There were a few schools of fish that moved fluidly as a group around the tank, as this huge shark glided around them. The picture doesn't really do it much justice, but the coral was also stunning. It made me want to go scuba diving..

This was at the penguin tank, and no, that is not a real penguin :)

Hope everyone is having a good week! Bryan and I have 3 days off for the Korean holiday 'Chuseuk' (more on that later), so we are about to go check out some hikes around Busan!

love yall,

Amy
