Today was my last day on my trip to Ireland and England.... and we where in London so I wanted to hit up the London Aquarium.

It was pretty neat but i wanted to know if any one else has visited it and what they thought???

i use photobucket. and use the last link in the list ( under the pic )
just copy and paste that into here. yeh it took me 40+ pics to get good shark pics . the light was to low for a fast shutter action and the sharks moved to fast for a slow one. i endid up putting my new cam ( at the time ) on auto nd using that. haha ( cannon EOS DSLR... i have the new version again now :) )

I am from england
I have been a few times and was not overly impressed for what they charge.
Alot of incorrect labels on the reef displays.
However I did manage to sneak in the out door a couple of times which made it alot better for me.
