Shedd Aquarium clips
Shot some video at the Shedd Aquarium in Chicago, I thought some of you might want to check out a few bits of it.
You will notice I didn't put any time into this as there are a quite a few editing misses mixed in with the hits :blush:
There wasn't a lot of great footage anyway since it was really crowded.. But meh 
The silence at the end of the video is due to copywright issues and not by design.Last edited by KingFisher; 01-11-2013 at 11:52 PM.

Hey 850R, when I try to view the video, its says the video is markes as private and won't let me view it, any suggestions ???
Can everyone else view it OK ????If you take your time to do the research FIRST, you can successfully set-up and keep ANY type of aquarium with ease.

I'd love to go to a big aquarium like that. But there are none in my province that I've been able to find ;_;

Shedd is an amazingly great aquarium. You can spend the better part of a day there, and their shows in the auditorium that has the big animal tanks abutting up to Lake Michigan is worth the time.
If you are planning a Chicago Trip, the Citypass is a great way to go if you want the full experience and some of the other great sites in Chicago (Museum of Science and Industry/Alder Planetarium/Field Museum/etc)

Awesome
Dude, I live in Chicago and have been there multiple times. Did you see the five foot arapaima and sharks?

The city pass is a good idea :-D
Oh yeah I have been there probably a dozen times but other than this summer I hadn't been for 3 or 4 years. I always love me some Shedd.
I didn't see the sharks this time but I saw them in August with Crispy. Def saw the arapaima and 'Grandad' the lungfish that has lived at the aquarium since it opened in 1933.
It is a great place no doubt.
