What to do on another Rainy day in Paradise

Maui Ocean Center seemed to be the only option. I think a lot of other people had the same idea. It was pretty crowded. I especially like the Turtles and Sharks. Yes I am a total SHARK fan! Black tip reef, White tip reef, Sandbar, Hammerhead and Tiger sharks. Oh and some big Rays too. Save the sharks... millions are being killed every year. There is a bill in the Senate right now to prohibit taking shark fins and discarding the body. Send your congressmen a letter.

Lots of great fish, a very cool jelly fish tank, coral and educational displays. The turtle seen here is 8 months old. It will be raised until 4 years old then released into the Ocean. Green Sea turtles do not reach reproductive age until they are nearly 30 years old. Their shell is layed down in layers and much like a tree with its rings, the layers of shell can be measured. These turtles can live over 100 years, I believe the guide said one was measured at 150 years old. We spent nearly 4 hours here.
