Oceanogràfic Valencia

Oh boy guys, I love animals and I feel a strong lure to anything involving animals but I also feel a strong lure to saving my money that's why I hadn't previously forked over the 25 euros to see Oceanogràfic in Valencia. However, having gone I can say that if you're heading to Valencia take a couple of hours and check this out!



Oceanogràfic really had everything, sharks, whales, adorable seals, a seahorse statue made out of things found at the beach (by the way, don't litter at the beach! It takes hundreds to thousands of years for your garbage to compose there, at least according to the displays here), a really angry walrus and much, much more.

But my favourite part was the dolphin show, it was cheesy and over the top but it was ridiculously fun to watch and made you feel like a kid again.Not to mention the fact that the trainers had so much charisma (and skill) that they could have done the show by themselves.

Sadly, I was to busy being enthralled to take pictures but here are some for you from the interwebs.

Bottom Line: Sure it was a cheesy tribute to sea life, complete with ambient spa music and pointless bodies of water but it was also a fun and refreshing way to spend the afternoon.
