If, like me, you are searching for a new and different place to spend your evenings or weekends - here is a unique place. It is the Aquarium and Boating at Vileparle West near Irla.
The boating is not the greatest of attractions, especially with the pre-monsoon showers turning into a full scale monsoon.
Neither is the aquarium so great as it is full of fish on the verge of strangulation. No idea when the tanks were last cleaned out...
Watch out for...
The cute little tortoise who is desperately trying to get out of the aquarium. That little fella has a couple of relatives outside in the aviary.
The aviary is the most exciting thing about this Aquarium and Boating place. There are some emus wandering around quite calmly (Not to be confused with ostriches). There are cockatoos, possibly some snow petrels, multi-hued parrots etc. Not a large collection but definitely a very interesting and colorful one.
A great place to take kids or an interesting outing for adults. I have been looking through Google and Wikipedia to understand the birds I saw there – because sadly they haven’t put up any information at all – not even the bird’s names!
P.S. Other exhibits include the common garden variety couples with no other place to go on a rainy day.
