Cape Town Aquarium is smaller than some we have visited, and not even near
the same level of the amazing aquarium in Valencia, Spain, but they do an
impressive job in Cape Town. One of the great, unique features is that certified
divers can pay to go swimming in the main salt water tank with sharks and
more...which Heidi did as I snapped happily away outside the tank. A great
day and experience for both of us. Sharks teeth move like a conveyer belt
to replace their teeth, they will go through as many as 20,000 teeth in
their lifetime. Heidi found a tooth on the rock bed of the tank and it was
not only as sharp as a just-ground knife edge, it survived the journey home
to begin a second life as a cool souvenir. |
