uShaka

Today I spent time at the uShaka Marine world. They have a Wet 'n Wild Park and an Aquarium. They have about 7 water slides and a lazy river. I supposedly went down the 'tallest water slide in Africa.' The aquarium was also very cool, they have a lot of tanks with all types of fish. They have a huge shark tank and I was able to see them feed the sharks. It was a little disappointing, as it was not like Shark Week on National Geographic. The sharks just swim up and eat the fish off of a skewer--there wasn't any bloody meat ripping fight for the food.
The park is right on the beach and there are tons of shops and restaurants there. You can even have drinks at the end of the pier. I hope to go back sometime and look in the shops and wander around.
