This looks an awesome SEA LIFE Aquarium I enjoyed the shark cove. What was your favorite part of the Aquarium?

Mine too! I really enjoy watching the different sharks swim by. I was afraid of sharks when I was a kid, now I find them fascinating.

Tom so is that turtle able to go back in the wild
@TomsRoadTrippin 4 ай бұрын
Unfortunately that turtle is unable to survive in the wild. However it will live a good life at the aquarium.
