    Underwater

    How many of you like to watch the fishes and many other things underwater?

    Has anyone been here? The perfect place to watch life underwater and eat at the same time.

    Yuk, yuk and eoowww! I could never do that. ALL of our friends in Florida are master divers and have gone cave diving in milky waters in the Bahamas and dive all over the world. To get their master certification, some even spent the WEEKEND in an underwater "motel" (chamber). One friend in particular, said she almost "wigged out" several times but the people topside talked to her via radio constantly and calmed her down and she eventually managed to make it through the whole weekend.

    How do the submariners do it? I give them kudos and lots of credit.

    In the Bahamas at the Atlantis resort and casino, there is a 'fantabulous' aquarium that you can walk around in and you would swear that you are actually under the sea looking at the lost city of Atlantis. Most breath-taking (and un-nerving) but quite an experience.

    There was something like that at Silver Springs Florida when I was
    little. I have mostly went to restaurants that had aquariums every
    where so you could watch the fishes. Gold fish, Catfish, Bass, and
    Oscars. Even crabs!

    I'll bet you are talking at Weekie Watchie (sp?). Quite a place to visit! About 8 years ago they were going to close it due to bankruptcy, but as in other 'historically significant' places, it was saved.

    So It's not for you Stephen, at least hopefully the fish on the menu would be fresh.

    The nearest I have got was when I went in a glass bottomed boat in kenya, it was amazing. I didn't dive because I can't swim.

    There is a Chinese restaurant with an aquarium in it where I live Judy, if you choose the fish you can pick which one from the tank you want.

    I've wanted to throw up underwater (many years ago) but not wanted to eat!

    It does not give a menu, so I do not know if it is a seafood restaurant. I just thought if they did serve fish, there are plenty swimming nearby.
