Aquatic Animals

Hello there! The other day I visited Umigatari, the aquarium in Joetsu city, Niigata prefecture. It was on August 3rd, 2024, sunny and hot. Since it was Saturday, the aquarium had a constant stream of visitors, and the parking lot was almost full, but I managed to park my car. I went into the building and proceeded along the path for a while and Magellanic Penguin Museum caught my eye. Umigatari boasts No.1 in Japan in the number of reared Magellanic penguins, being so rare that I couldn't wait to take a look at them! I was definitely enchanted by their adorable figures :D
