My Journey Round The World

279 days on the road…



Vancouver’s aquarium

2009_10_01_Canada-Vancouver_AQUARIUM

Hard not to compare things you know about… As it was a rainy day, I decided to go exploring the aquarium. I should say, I was a bit desappointed… True, they have more animals than Nausicaa – the aquarium in Boulogne-sur-Mer where I used to work for more than 4 years.  However, I found the mise-en-scene not as good as in my former aquarium! Yes, they have two huge Underwater Viewing – as they call it – but so big that you hardly see the dolphins or belugas… Some others tanks doesn’t seems real, plants are fake, sharks are small… Ok, one good point is that circulation is really easy & you have map telling you where you are. Dolphin show was interesting to see – really American way :) Funny was to see the fishs we have on our French coast relocated on the Canadian one.

In the middle of my visit, I heard French speaking people saying that the best aquarium they’ve seen was Boulogne… Did I heard that right?! I couldn’t miss that & confirm that yes, Boulogne is one of the best :) They were from South West France & used to visit aquariums on their journey. We had a quick chat about the one they’ve seen & result was that Nausicaa was the best! I should say I was proud :)   Guys, you’re doing a great job there! (I never doubt about it!) CARRY-ON!!! I look forward to see the changes on my next visit :)
