I’ve seen and heard several reports about your newest attraction. Lots of superlatives. What piques my interest is that there are Whale Sharks on display. I was supposed to snorkel with them in Western Oz earlier this year, but the beasts decided not to come out to play on that particular day.

I haven’t been the the aquarium yet, it only opened last week right before thanksgiving (I think). However, I have heard great things about it, and will probably go once the crowds thin out a bit.
