Coex Aquarium

Saturday evening we decided to go on a date to Coex Mall.  Other than claiming it's the largest underground mall in Asia (it probably is because we get lost every time we go there) it's rather unimpressive with just typical stores and restaurants.  It does however also have a movie theater and an aquarium.  We had never gone to the aquarium before so decided we would check it out.  It was humid and monsooning off and on all day so we figured something inside would be more enjoyable.  The aquarium was pretty good sized and had a lot of different sea creatures and even some other animals.  Our favorite was the alligator turtle!  There were a lot of different turtles which made us turtle lovers excited!  We also learned how big manatees really are when you see one up close.  After our visit to the aquarium we had dinner at On the Border, also located in Coex Mall.  It was, of course, completely delicious and like a taste of home :) 

This is an alligator turtle.  Basically an alligator with a shell instead of a body!
