Underwater Observatory

I read about an underwater observatory recently online and thought it looked worth checking out, so we took a drive up north today and were pleasantly surprised! The observatory is ran by the Busena Terrace Beach Resort, so we walked through the beautiful property of the resort. We found a ticket booth, and paid 1000 yen a piece to get into the actual under water viewing place. There, we took a spiral stair case deep into the sea and found portholes to look through. There were hundreds of fish in the open ocean, who looked way happier than any aquarium fish i've seen. It was so cool so see so many fish; kind of like scuba diving without getting wet.




 This reminded me of Rhode Island….

 For another 1000 yen, you could take a ride on a glass bottom boat… maybe next time


 I kept thinking that the observatory might be a good place to hide out in a tsunami, but then realized you would be trapped. Saw this sign on the way out… (it says go to higher ground in a tsunami)


 We walked past this mini golf course, and Corey decided it's the perfect course for his future home...


 Putting green mini golf course… the future of the field at Joe Sarle Road???
