Bermuda, Day Four

We had a pretty leisurely morning this morning. Then we got on the bus again and went to Flatt's Village. We ate lunch at a little place called Rustic. The food was very good. Then we walked a little way up to the aquarium. Actually, the Bermuda Aquarium, Museum & Zoo, established in 1926. It's a small one, but it was fun and we actually spent most of our day there. First we checked out the aquarium part. Here is a picture of a parrot fish. He was pretty cool-looking.
Here's a picture of one of the sharks. There were four in the tank, which was much bigger than it looked from inside. They had a little peeky hole in the back section on the outside and you could see the big back section.
After we finished inside the aquarium, we went into the breezeway that led to the museum. There were some seal tanks! They had 5 seals and we watched them swim for a few minutes, then we read the signs and found out that they were about to be fed, so we waited the few minutes more. The feeders got the seals to do tricks for their fish. They gave kisses, rolled over, clapped and jumped up out of the water. Fun!
Then we went through the museum. There was a lot of interesting information on how Bermuda got there, how it was settled and how it came to prosper. Then we went out to the zoo section. They had lots of birds, some lemurs and snakes and such. They had these flamingoes...
Also, there was one section...Animals of the Carribbean...where all the animals were loose in the section you went through. There were some spoonbills and scarlet ibis's all around us and little Golden Lion Tamarins jumping around in the trees above us. The little monkeys followed us through, watching us, but didn't ever get too close. We also saw some big sea turtles- 4 of them.

Anyway, after we left that place, we walked up a little farther to go to the Railway Museum, but it was closed. So we headed back to Hamilton and went to the grocery store before we boarded another bus and came back to the apt. We had some mac & cheese for dinner, and now we're watching some TV.
More tomorrow...
