Maui Ocean Center

Here’s what should be the second-to-last post on our Maui trip last month. I’d read about the Maui Ocean Center’s shark tunnel in a recent magazine article and wanted to take a look. We headed out there one day and spent the afternoon wandering the grounds, checking out the indoor and outdoor exhibits, and overall having fun. At one point in the shark tunnel we lost Cub. He was having too much fun running through it that he ran straight out! Noel found him wandering outside, just past the door. We also participated in the daily turtle feeding. I was mildly surprised to learn that they feed them raw broccoli by just tossing it into the water. They let visitors do the tossing, too, which kind of unnerved me, but luckily that day we all had good aim and didn’t hit one.
