Dear all, haha finally this will be a super long post with damn lots of pictures... After eating alot of medicine and getting alot of rest, Jia is finally in the mood to play!!!
We woke up early that day as it will be a long long journey to Hakkeijima. Hakkeijima Sea Paradise is situated at the tip of Yokohama Bay. Its like a mini island in the sea.
Here is a photo of a map of Hakkeijima Sea Paradise.
Hakkeijima Sea Paradise consists of an aquarium called Aqua Museum and an amusement park called pleasure land. Its free of charge to enter the island, but you will have to pay to enter the aquarium and the amusement park.
Adult Ticket Price
One day ticket (entry to Aqua Museum and Pleasure land) - Y5350
Aqua Museum - Y2700
Pleasure land - Y2900
As I was only interested in the aquarium, I bought the aqua museum pass.
Here is the bridge connecting to Hakkeijima Sea Paradise. They have a seasonal sign stating the different opening hours.
This is the first thing you will see upon stepping into the island. A MERRY GO ROUND!!!
After buying the tickets, we headed to the aquarium... Here are some bushes that have been shaped into fishes... kawaii deshou?
Aqua Museum is a 3 storey building with a aqua stadium at the top floor.
The bigger mammals were situated on the first floor.
The first thing I saw was the walrus!! haha the trainer is feeding her which attracted a huge crowd...

My fav animal, the penguins!!!
Here is another type of penguin which is smaller in size. Haha this is prob still a baby cuz it cant stop squinting its eyes when swimming... Super cute!
Next, Jia headed to the underwater tunnel escalator.
