Aquarium

On Buddha's birthday (May 24), we had a holiday. So I headed into Seoul with my Korean friend to do some sightseeing and to see a Buddhist ceremony. Unfortunately it rained buckets all day long, so we couldn't do most of our sightseeing, and the ceremony was also canceled. Bummer! However, I did get to go to Building 63 (the tallest building in Seoul), to the aquarium in the bottom. It was small, but quite interesting.

The English (Engrish? Konglish?) signs around here are always, always wrong. Sometimes they are cute and funny, like this one:

So I guess if you need a romantic guy, you can just head to the aquarium for a fish!

I always feel bad for certain animals in captivity more than others. Birds and other animals that usually roam around hundreds of kilometres in the wild are always top of the list. These penguins made me feel a bit sad.
This crab made me think, "Spider of the Sea."
My friend:
The niftiest starfish ever!


Turtles and alligators...friends I guess!
And yes, I feel bad for snakes too! Not sure if they themselves feel bad or not. Probably not.


So interesting to look into the faces of creatures I, as a human, should not really be able to see, ever.
