Ocean Expo Park

Our second trip to Churaumi Aquarium we decided to explore the Expo Park some more.

I have no idea how big exactly this park is...  we walked the board ramps down the coastline for an hour taking in the scenery and then decided to head back for lunch.  But we didn't even make it down to the tropical dream center... granted, our pace was quite leisurely.

The many beaches were breath-taking and so relaxing to sit and enjoy in the gazebos that spotted the path.  O enjoyed looking through the boards down at the sand and water below and trying to pull the giant pineapple looking things off the plants.

There were also many amazingly landscaped areas with ponds and waterfalls, fish and tadpoles galore, water-lillies and little stone paths that went through them.

And, as always, we had to see the dolphin show!  ;)  O laughed and danced with the dolphins and clapped along with the audience.  It is amazing how much more she is becoming aware of her surroundings.
