The other part of sea paradise was the (non-sea creature related) rides, the coolest one for me being the one called Blue Fall. It's a tower which takes you 350 feet up strapped on a seat, lets you enjoy the breathtaking view of Yokohama for a few seconds, and then drops you to free-fall screaming down to the ground. It was awesome!
There was also a big roller coaster. Its size doesn't break any record but it was the biggest roller coaster that I've seen, so I didn't pass up the chance to experience it. It was a pretty cool roller coaster actually, because more than half of it stands above the sea.
A pleasant experience my friends and I nearly missed was the dolphin fantasy. It was located in a small building in the middle of the park, but it looked like an ordinary store, we didn't think it was anything special. But good thing we were curious enough and so we got to experience walking under yet another big aquarium, but this time with the company of dolphins. Inside, the building was a tunnel-like structure, and gliding over our heads were colorful fishes and the dolphins. Then at the end of the tunnel was another aquarium, this one housing a lovely white whale.
Because we tried to finish all our sea paradise activities before lunch, when we had our lunch, it was was past 1pm already. We happily ate inside the park. Mark and Meema shared a pizza while I had a Popeye salad so called because the greens were spinach leaves. Loved it!
