The Aquarium

Thursday 23rd December
So we decided to visit the aquarium today, everything we have read about it said it was worth a visit.  It took us about 15 minutes in the dinghy to reach the island, where we were immediately swarmed by the island vendors selling necklaces and other items, they were not happy that we didn't buy anything, although I did buy a dish of some delicious fish.  We enjoyed a beer before walking around to the entrance of the aquarium, only to find they closed for lunch from 1:30 till 3:30, it had only just passed 1:30 so we asked if we could go in, but no one paid any attention to us, we may as well have been invisible.  Scoop attempted to talk to a number of staff but they paid no attention to him, they were obviously not interested in taking our money. So we left.
There is nothing in any of the literature about the aquarium telling you that they close for 2 hours each day, so if you want to visit be sure to get there well before 1:30.
