Large Fish!

We went to the Dallas World Aquarium last week. I was pleasantly surprised at how much fun it was and how different it was from what I expected in an aquarium and decided to get a membership because I can easily see us going at least once a month if not more.

While it wasn't as hands on as the Thanksgiving Point Museum of Ancient Life we went to a lot in Utah, it is very amenable to two boys running around pointing at all their favorite things and finding new favorites.

All the display info is on touch screen computers which is a bonus for two boys who love to play with technology. The first picture is of the boys checking out a giant fish in one of the large window displays. The second picture is while we were in the shark & stingray tunnel o'fun, which was one of their favorite places. Third comes the flamingos and fourth is watching the penguins get their dinner.

As may be evident by the last two pictures, the aquarium has lots of bugs & other interesting critters in addition to fish of all types, so it is a fun place to visit. I was really happy that noise levels weren't a problem, and that it was such a child friendly environment.

You may notice that the boys faces aren't in any of these shots - it was nearly impossible to distract them from the creatures to take a photo. What can I say? We had a great time!
