Ecosystems
Its been 3 days in Tahiti and we are all already wanting to stay extra long. Today we are going to an aquarium to feed the sharks and the stingrays. It should be super fun and nerve racking because Parker and Eli don't like being that close to live animals. Before we get to all that, we need breakfast. We headed to"Cafe Verde" today and get a good breakfast. We headed out to the aquarium and were briefed on what to do. Don't put your hands near the stingrays barb, don't put your hands near the sharks mouth, don't jump on or grab the aquatic life. Then we headed to the water, carrying fish and other food. The sharks started gathering around knowing what was coming. FOOD! The sharks circled us as if we were stranded out on the ocean. The stingrays flapping there bodies and moving through the water swiftly. The sharks resembled missiles just gliding through the water calmly. WE dropped the food in the water and it was like a shark magnet they all turned and shot at us and as we retreated the stingrays came closer too. Parker would rather prefer the stingrays because you can see them a lot easier they look like a brown, silver, or black spot just slowly moving around. We hung out at the aquarium all day and just looked at all the fish of Tahiti. Some we had never seen before, we were all struck with wonder. After we had used all our energy we went back to the house and rested tomorrow is going to be a fun one. Were going ZIP-LINING!
