A tour guide approaches and takes us to the next attraction ' Deep-sea Scenery ” where we see more incredible marine life and coral displays . Gazing at the beautiful fish , I realise that I have lost Russie . Luckily it doesn ’ t take me too long to find her reading a fascinating story about the marine world on a huge screen .
After our exciting time at Ocean World , we are happy to find out that we don ’ t have too far to walk to our next destination . We have been told that the best way to see the beauty of the city is by taking a boat trip on the river Pearl . After getting the tickets , we go on board and sit comfortably at the front . We are quite lucky because the breeze makes the humidity more tolerable . We can hear people speaking many different languages around us which reminds us that travelling brings people and cultures together . “ Frank , I am starving . Shall we have a bite to eat ?”
“ Frank , I love this place … but look , isn ’ t that a shark over there ? I think there ’ s a person swimming as well .” We go to the nearby pond where we find a few people waiting to dive into the water and swim with the trained sharks . I am not surprised the queue is small . Who has the guts to swim with these ferocious creatures ? We are happy to stand by and check out the show .
“ I can see that man is eating some rice dumplings . Let ’ s get a few , teacher .” While enjoying our tasty lunch , we see a gorgeous tower in the distance . The audio guide tells us we are approaching Canton Tower , which is the highest TV tower in the country . It ’ s striking with its unique design and seems to be a great place for entertainment .
