Aquarium Visit

It's been a year and a half since last visiting our aquarium here in Cleveland and thanks to Groupon, we decided to purchase an annual membership and get back there! Drew loves sharks, turtles and fish just like every other toddler out there and we knew this would be fun for him. The first picture pretty much sums up the entire visit. The place was pretty empty right before closing on a Sunday and I'm sure the staff could hear him yelling 'sharks!' or 'nemo and dory!' or 'turtles!' all throughout the exhibit. 


The left picture below is his attempt to make a fish face.


It's not often, though, that visitors get to see a freshly laid egg by a tortoise. Although she was old and it wasn't viable, it was still a neat experience to be the only patrons there when it happened!

  1. That is sooo cool! Here the CG watches the sea turtle eggs until they hatch then helps them out to sea.
    Such a cute attempt at a fish face!

  2. Awesome - that aquarium looks pretty rad too. We only have the tiny tiny tiny one in Niagara Falls (which you experienced). We get annual memberships there (just to relieve the cost of $10 per adult for a tiny place), but Taylor sure does love it.

    I love his fish face. Adorable.

  4. How fun! We need to pay a visit to our aquarium here in St. Louis. I've never been and I'm sure Jackson would enjoy it as well. :-) Have a great weekend.

  7. So fun! I wish we had an aquarium. We used to have a small zoo, but that closed a few years ago. I guess I should just be thankful for all of our nice beaches.

  11. Love the fishy face! We just took our twins to the aquarium for the first time, and they did so well. It's a great indoor activity for all ages. We are buying a family membership, we liked it so much!
