Greetings R-L-X!
On Monday, after a busy weekend at the track, I decided to take the family to one of the "hidden jewels" of South Florida - the Miami Seaquarium. I've been to several parks and zoos which have sea animal shows, but all pale in comparison to the Miami Seaquarium.

The Seaquarium has many different animals on dislay....like crocodiles:

....and Sea Lions:

...and exotic birds:

The birds are very friendly, as you can see in this picture with my wife:

The birds REALLY liked my son.

Of course, what the Seaquarium is BEST known for is their aquatic animal shows. The Seaquarium has been in several movies and television shows and the classic TV show FLIPPER was filmed here in the 60's. The dolphin shows were amazing!

The killer whale show was also quite thrilling...obviously the performer has a great deal of trust with the animal:
