Nagoya Port from the observation tower. You could just make out the animal shows in the pool



Dolphins having fun


The stand holds 3000 people and being the golden week holiday it was very busy


We saw one of the shows with dolphins and a killer whale performing


The show was terrific


The aquarium contained lots of tanks of very strange fish. This one with the big lips was especially funny.


The sardine tank was a blur of fish racing by





Kids were always posing for their parents. A very popular spot


THAT.. is a big fish. It is bigger than most of the kids staring up at it.


There must have been over 100 penguins of all types bouncing around in the penguin tank.


This penguin just floated beside the glass and watched everyone outside, completely ignoring the penguin mayhem in the background.

The Port Museum and observation tower are in the tower behind the ship, just outside the aquarium.


The port museum was very industrial and had a strange collection of ships in bottles.
