The Discovery Centre and aquarium in Dubai Mall

Today I went to Dubai Mall and went to the aquarium and Discovery Centre.

The aquarium has 33,000 animals, it has the largest aquarium window and it has sand tiger sharks , stingrays, giant groupers and loads of big and small fish.

We went into the glass tunnel in the aquarium and saw loads of big sharks and fish surrounding us close up.

In the Discovery centre we saw little sharks, lots of different types of fish, Harbour seals, Humboldt penguins, Jelly fish and piranhas. We also fed fish and stood on the glass viewing platform.
It was very exciting. I liked seeing the seals best. We were very hungry after all that so we had a curry in the food court.

The Hajar Mountains

We drove through the Hajar mountains yesterday on our way to Fujairah from Dubai. We stopped to take photos and we said hi to Wadi Al Hello. These are the mountains when you get through the tunnel.
