Rose wanted to take the kids to the Asamushi Aquarium in Aomori City. I was pretty happy with it. Admission cost 3000 yen (~$30) for 3 adults and 2 children.
The dolphin show, as always, was alot of fun.
We finally got a glimpse of the elusive giant salamander.
The highlight of the tour was the dolphin feeding. We were able to stand around a very small pool and watch the dolphins get fed. It made for a very intimate experience with the dolphins.
The dolphins also did a few trips. Its one thing watching a dolphin show from the stands, but there's nothing quite like seeing them do flips right in front of you.
"It was the longing, romantic, reasonless, which lies deep in the hearts of most Englishmen, to shun the celebrated spectacles of the tourist and without any concern with science or politics or commerce, simply to set their feet where few civilized feet have trod" --Evelyn Waugh explaining why Eric Newby attempted an ascent of the Hindu Kush with only a few days scrambling experience.
