Aquarium




Our first visit to an Aquarium was a lot of fun! She took her newly favorite kitty in with her to guard her from the sharks. Thank goodness its neck is still attached as well as mine b/c we were both death gripped as we walked thru the shark tunnels. Scuba divers were also in the tanks, cleaning the glass & waving to everyone, which she was also afraid of. Haven't figured that one out yet since all of her cousins swim with a snorkel & goggles every time.
Taking a hopping 20 mos. old down the path & up to a glass floor, & she will FREEZE! (Proves that study right!) As always, loves the turtles, & the jellyfish seemed to be of high interest as well too. All in all, the bigger the fish, the longer it took her to get close to the glass. Now, here's the funny part- ask her if she wants to touch a crab, starfish & shark, & she freely sticks her hand in the tank! She touched a shark twice, & I know her cousins were quite excited over they variety they came in contact with. It's a little bit blurry photo, but its' one where she's getting ready to pet her first shark. Lil diver(s) up ahead. (I somehow commited to a dive trip for the oldest 2 boys if they passed their scuba tests.)
