finding the atlantis

 I had the opportunity to visit the Atlantis. A resort located at The Palm Jumeirah. Together with Arnelio and Charrie, we booked for the Aquaventure and The Lost Chambers. The main attraction of Aquaventure is the Ziggurat which offers the Leap of Faith; a daring 27.5 metre near-vertical drop down its face. We had no courage to give it a shot so we just go for the Shark Attack and the Rapids. Shark attack is a shoot and spin through a mysterious dark tunnel then emerging to a clear end tunnel giving a closer view of the sharks. The Rapids is a ride to over two kilometer path of tidal river with one metre waves in a lush tropical landscape.

The second part of our tour is a visit to The Lost Chambers. The journey provides insights into how the citizens of Atlantis may have lived and worked.

The walk brings you to a maze of underwater halls and tunnels under the Ambassador Lagoon. This pic was taken at the Seven Sages Chamber overlooking the lagoon. As I understand, the lagoon is ten meters deep filled with several large manta rays, sun fish, groupers and a variety of smaller sea creatures all found within the local waters of the Arabian Gulf.

Eous (my cam) was so busy today. Several shots were taken. Now, I’m thinking of opening my multiply account for posting some of my masterpieces (daw).
