On a family vacation, there’s somewhat less irony in following lunch at a fish market to watching fish in an aquarium. We rode the bus back to the city centre and walked west towards the harbour.
Looking south from the pedestrian bridge, the proximity of the Sydney Aquarium to the elevated roadway underscores the increased value of the real estate by the harbour.
At the Sydney Aquarium, entry for the family was through the shark’s jaws.
Like many aquariums, there are displays behind glass, like the Eastern Water Dragon.
Less common in aquariums is the tunnel in the oceanarium. We took a long ramp down, leading to areas below harbour level. It’s cool and placid down there. We waited a few moments, and a shark swam overhead.
