We had a wonderful outing to the Two Ocean’s Aquarium in August. I thought at the time that Little One was ready to enjoy the experience and I was right. Fun was had by all … Even Daddy! I also had a field day with all the photo opportunities and I think I frustrated my family a little as I was always trailing behind!

So here are some pictures of our outing.

I just loved the tank with the clownfish. You can crawl in at the bottom (it was a tight squeeze!) and sit in the middle of it. This was a big hit with both children (and me). I was so focused on the clownfish that I didn’t even notice the hermit crab until I looked at the pictures! Can you spot him?

This is one of my favourite pictures of the day. The sea anemones! Aren’t the colours just amazing?

This is one of the smaller shark tanks. I know that the pictures are a little dark, but I was determined not to use my flash at all.

This is the biggest tank.

Just a little ol’ turtle.

A friendly seagull that was after any scraps from lunch!

While we were there we also caught a terrific puppet show, saw seahorses, giant spider crabs, jellyfish, rays … And so much more. If you are ever in Cape Town, this is a wonderful outing for the whole family!
