Just keep swimming, just keep swimming

In National Museum of Marine Science and Technology, we found Nemo and it was residing safely in the tank. It won't go missing again 'cos Dory was there with him all year long, and they live happily every after...

Okay, that's all folks.

It's fascinating how marine lives adapt to one another even though they are completely different species with different shapes and sizes. Some corals grow slower than others, but they are bigger than them and live deeper in the sea. Sea urchins tend to stick onto the side of the tank because it is easier for them to clear the bowels. The giant grouper is the only grouper species which is aggressive, but they do not eat human. These are just tip of the iceberg that were exposed to us in the museum and we were already overwhelmed by it. Knowledge is really boundless.

Of course, a picture speaks a thousand word, and getting hands dirty is even better than staring at motionless photos. We had a chance to experience first hand by heading towards the rocky shore nearby the museum, and we managed to pick up various types of sea creatures including star fish, shell fish, sea cucumber and crab.

The scenery of the shore was magnificent with the ocean touching the sky.

I couldn't wait to explore further but due to time constraint, we need to get back to school by the evening. Looking forward to tomorrow's trip to Yangmingshan and explore the plants and insects on Balaka Trail.
