The Aquarium!

One day while on vacation, we took Allisynn to the aquarium. We figured she would love to see the fish and sharks, turtles and dolphins.  She enjoyed it- but not quite as much as the zoo.  We decided it was most likely because the animals aren't as playful as the zoo animals. Plus, it is darker and cooler and might seem a little more scary. She still enjoyed it and loved looking at everything and pushing the buttons.  Our favorite part was a tunnel area that had a moveable walkway that you could see all sorts of  sea animals. We saw eels, crabs, dolphins, sharks, fish, turtles, etc.  
She looks so little next to the sign! :) 
 Looking out at the hands on room. She enjoyed this but didn't want to touch or go near the horseshoe crabs. :)

 Colorful reefs and fish!

 Lunch together after the aquarium at H@rd R0ck! 


 Then we walked around Bro@dway @ the Be@ch. :) 
We had a great day together! Even if she doesn't remember all this stuff, I know she is learning and gaining experiences that are priceless! :)  She is such a sponge right now and anything we can do together to help her learn and experience the world around her is not only fun, but good for her! :)
