Dolphin Show at the Shinagawa Aquarium

29/04/2010

It was a Showa s day and a national holiday in Japan. My friend decided on a fast day out and the spot was the aquarium of Shinagawa. It is not at all a big aquarium but a beautiful spot for a day out with  a nice lake. I loved the area the first time I saw it, a huge contrast among the busy city of Shinagawa, Tokyo. This is not the best of the aquarium but yet there is always something to enjoy.

It was a small aquarium but I loved the Dolphin show. Of course there were better shows in Hakkeijima  and other aquariums but still it was fun to watch.There were two dolphins performing, one male and one female. They were cute, big and so chubby. They performed several tricks, simple but yet cute. Let me share the moments with you...!!!
