Day at the Aquarium

So, we decided to go to the Bay Aquarium while Nana was visiting. It was awesome! I was a little worried about how pricey it was going to be, but with a military discount it was fine!  


The tanks were just the right height for Joanna to look into and see the fish in there. This eel was huge! Joanna and him were having a stare down.




Joanna LOVED the jellyfish that they had.









The next thing we saw was MY favorite thing. A big red octopus! They have been my favorite sea creature ever since I read the Ranger Rick special on Octopuses. And this one was awesome!



They have a dome under the tank so the little ones can look into the tank. I haven't wished I was a kid so badly in a long time!


Octopus saying "Hi" to Joanna


HOW AWESOME IS THAT?!

Then! They had a tube so we can see the bigger fish.



Joanna got to touch starfish.




After the Aquarium, we went to eat at Bubba Gump. Here is Joanna watching the merry-go-round while we were waiting to be seated.
