Okinawa

I booked a room via AirBNB at Aki's place. She picked me up at the
Station and showed me the apartment.

 She asked me what me plan are and I told her I'd like to eat some Goya (typical Okinawa food) and
also wanted to go to the Churaumi Aquarium. She decided to join for lunch and helped me finding out the 

fastest way, which was by public bus transport. The way to the Churaumi Aquarium via Bus is over 2,5hours 

and you  have to change bus at least two times.

Finally there, the clock was already ticking  As I don't wanted to miss the
last bus or be around my apartment later then 11pm.
The Aquarium is impressive and way better than the Kaiyukan in Osaka
mostly because of widely corridor

 

 

 After visited my second Aquarium in Japan, I know that the lack of Information's is on purpose, which I think is really sad and
shows exactly how our society is interested in stuff like this. Superficial, extremely superficial!
If it would be my Aquarium in a technologically very advanced country as Japan, I would add for example a QR Code and behind this,
you would get all Information's about the Animal in Japanese, Chinese and
English. Thats not a big deal, but will at least satisfy the few who wanna know.
But sure, it a minority, why do anything when there is no big demand...

 I'm not starting any discussion if this is good or not, keeping Whale sharks,
Mantas, Tiger Sharks in captivity, but I have to admit
it is impressive and like a hypnosis session, just sitting in front and
watch.

Beside the huge tank my highlights been the shark-jaws and the shark-skin
which you are allowed to touch.

Impressive, specially feeling the different grade of sharpness
