  August 9, 2012  Kagoshima Aquarium

  Here are a bunch of pictures taken at Kagoshima Aquarium.  They were all taken through thick glass, so the focus is not what it might be. 

  

  Here is the entrance.  The aquarium is located near the docks for the ferry boats that cross over to the volcano Sakurajima several times a day. 

  

  A fancy sea cucumber

   

  Small shark

  

  Only a mother could love a face like this.

  

  Squids are so cute.

  

  Even a mother might have trouble with this.

  

  Oh for a pot of boiling water!

  

  Does anyone have any soy sauce for all of this sashimi on the hoof?

  

  Small sea turtle

  

  This looks yummy, too, but I suppose eatilng the exhibits is not polite.

  

  Lobsters of rare color

  

  Puffer fish, probably toxic

  

  Lamprey

  

  

  A huge camera shy eel

  

  Beeg fisch from the Amazon

  

  These fish are called bora and are kept in a river outside of the aquarium.  They were lovely to watch in the sunlight, and the camera did not do them justice.

  

  This is from a supermarket, which is why the focus is so much better. So is the taste!
