So we left Akmal and a world of his own ...

Some other creatures that caught our attention were the flamingoes. How straight and still they could be.

A pheasant

Try standing still for more than a few minutes ..

A shy bird..

A cockatoo ..

The sleeping seal - must be so tired of seeing so many humans .. ;-)

A stingray

Sharks ... and more sharks..

One of the weird jelly fish species

Another jelly fish species - it changes colour with the lights

We did not realise that almost one and a half hour had gone by. We better made our move as I wanted to buy some chocolates before we waited for our 4:00pm ferry. Thus, Akmal went with us to our car. We saw a roadside hawker selling coconut drink. We stopped to have a drink and chatted with the very friendly local mak cik seller and a pak cik taxi driver. So, we left Akmal in a world of his own again. A world where he understood these creatures, at home with the environment and eager to start his internship and learn new things. I leave Akmal in the hands of Allah.
