Summer to-do list task #2: Vancouver Aquarium. Check.
I decided to go to Vancouver Aquarium since it was one of my summer to-do list, but also because the ticket prices are about to get jacked up for summer. Tourism Vancouver sure knows how to make money!! :@
I went with my sister, Jackie and Chris, since they were the only ones free. Since I planned for the trip, I decided to drive there as well. A somewhat common courtesy, but also because I wanted to try driving outside Richmond. I’ve been so secluded in Richmond, that I’m trying to step outside of my comfort zone one step at a time. It was my first time driving to Stanley Park area (Vancouver Aquarium is right beside the park), so I was a little scared … Thank goodness for GPS though, I didn’t get lost hehe.
I don’t really remember much about the trip, since I’m blogging about it 2 weeks late (*changed the blog entry date to appropriate day though)… but the whole trip there was pretty awesome. I got to see some pretty funky animals, and enjoy some shows…and of course, I got to see the sea otters. So frickin’ cute. I want one for a pet heheh…
Also, the Beluga whale apparently gave birth a few weeks back, so I was pretty lucky to see the baby beluga. It took awhile to get a chance to see the baby beluga though… there was a huuuuge line up, which took about 30-45 minutes. *Sigh* quite not worth the wait, but since we were there, why waste the opportunity??
After Vancouver Aquarium, we decided to head to FLO tea for a late lunch/snacks. Surprisingly, the restaurant looks pretty nice… not what I really expected since the place used to be a porn rental place. >_>
