After coming back to Surfer's Paradise from Tangalooma, the next day we went to Sea World. The kids had lots of fun at Sea World.

Funny faces

While waiting for our photos to be ready, we decided to a group selfie. It turned out really well. I could not believe that this is ISO 1000 on the iPhone 5S. I thought that it looked very reasonable. Not bad for a little sensor.

Dolphin feeding
09:03 PM on Monday 16 June 2014
One of the key highlights of the resort is definitely the dolphin feeding. Visitors get to feed the dolphins which come to the beach regularly. The attraction for the dolphins would of course be the free fishes handed out to them. But the visitors do get a nice pitch by the guides on their conservat ...
