Photo Blog 2: Wonders of Wildlife, Bass Pro Shops (Part 2 the Aquarium)

     The Bass Pro Shops Wonders of Wildlife Aquarium and Museum was rated the best new attraction in the USA, 2018. 

     I have travelled extensively in my live and usually always stop at aquariums and zoos when I can. In my opinion, the Wonders of Wildlife Aquarium is one of the most unique and special aquariums I have ever been to. 

     The aquarium does not allow flash photography. Please keep that in mind. I do not believe these pictures do justice to the amazing aquarium.

This "Bait Shop and Pier" area are completely indoors. The Background artists chosen to paint the backgrounds are extremely talented. 

The cage is for diving with sharks. Anyone can sign up to dive with sharks.

One of the smaller sharks.

Just like the museum, there are these wonderful Caves and rock outcroppings to cross through when going to new sections of the aquarium. 

The scenery is amazing. All indoors. the aquariums are built into the rock.

Can't say enough about the scenery artists. 

The manatees are not real. Don't worry.

There are a dozen of these little tunnels that lead to a dome inside the aquarium where kids, or smaller adults, can go "inside' the aquarium with the fish. 

Dory on the left and Nemo on the right. 

Clownfish. Nemo.

Cool tunnel where you walk under the river. It surrounds you on both sides and above. 

The jellyfish area is always crowded. People love them. 

Seahorses. 

Walking through a life size cave. There were both fake bats on the ceiling and real bats of to the side. 

Blind cave fish.

Albino and regular catfish. Moving so fast I couldn't get a clear picture.

My daughter loved running back and forth on the rope bridge up there. 

There were actual beavers.
