Yesterday I went to Port Elzabeth (PE) with my sister. We went for the whole day and ended up getting sun burnt, but it was worth it.
It was exactly what I needed,just to get away from Grahamstown (gtown (; ) for a while and to do something different from the usaul routine of studying (and bunking lectures).
We even ent to Bay World Oceanarium. Now for some one that is used to Ushaka marine world, Bay World show cases a small selection of animals, but they make up for it in friendly service and the dolphin and seal show.
I enjoyed myself, I even felt like a little child again. You know that feeling of complete happiness you got from being entertained when you were little, no matter how simple or entraciate the show was, well that is how I felt yesterday and everytime I think back to yesterday.
There was a couple, obviously tourists, that made a comment on how dirty the place was, but one should stop and think, if your complianig about this place then what do you have to say about our oceans? Now, the place looks unkept, and dirty but not as in polluted, but as in could do with a good clean. Like the pool has quet a bit of algy growing in it, but honestly, you can see that the animals are the main priority and that they are cared for in the best way possible. and through out the show you are constantly reminded about this and are made aware about the destruction of the ocean.
I walked away from there actually feeling as if something had been fillfulled in my life. More than what I ever have, than when I leave the glitzy Ushaka in Durban.
