One fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish

Whew, it's the end of our "we didn't do anything while we were off track so let's cram it all into one week" week! Today, Britt and I took the kids to The Living Planet Aquarium (we're lucky we got there without anyone throwing up in the car, gotta love motion sickness). They have some really great exhibits, the kids ran from one thing to the next and really enjoyed themselves!



It's pretty cool to see jellyfish close and not be in danger of getting stung! We asked Kaden if you could put a jellyfish on your peanut butter sandwich and he said, "No, but Spongebob can."



This octopus was awesome! I was so interesting to watch it wiggle up and down the windows. I feel so bad though, because Britt and I were taking a bunch of pictures of the kids next to it. Unbeknowst to us, there is a sign on the other side of the exhibit that says to turn off your flash because it will damage the octopus' eyes. CRAP! Sorry little octopus!



THIS was almost everyone's favorite part. The kids got to put their hands in the water and pet the stingrays. They loved it! Well, everyone except Kaden. He had no desire to touch a stingray.




"Hey, kids. Come and touch this button..." Zap! This display was next to the electric eel exhibit and of course we had the kids touch it before we did. It gives you a little shock as if you touched an electric eel. They were all pretty mellow about it, they just giggled, that was it. In fact, the best reaction came from a mom who jumped and gave a little scream when she touched it.



Standing in front of the HUGE snake, that you can't really see.



And they ride off into the sunset... see ya!
