Original Toronto Star caption: Vancouver's New Aquarium at Stanley Park features what should be solo acts by killer whales but turn out to be duets; with a playful porpoise determined to get in on the tricks- and the reward of fish-every time the show is presented. The aquarium; like the zoo around it; is modern; clean; attractive and only a few minutes away by car from any part the city. But you don't have to go there to see marine life and aquatic creatures. The sea is all around you.
