We eventually found the

"momma shark"...inside her home safely.

Now this is what I call an aquarium that I wouldn't want to clean!

For the definition of "bird legs" see below:

There were shells for the kids to listen to and they kept telling me they could hear the "lotion"...(read ocean)

PICT0293 PICT0296PICT0294 She's impressed.

 

Of course the stingrays are quit the "slippery catch"...as you can see I have a persistent fisherman whose getting told to NOT get in! The two toddlers were happy to just enjoy looking.

My favorite was cool Crush himself from Nemo saying :

"You so totally rock, Squirt! So gimme some fin."

The place had a playground, which we stopped by to make sure they ...

dropped!

How to get your kids especially toddlers to sleep 3 1/2 hrs on the way home start here and then this is how you will have a perfect ending to your mini~vacations peaceful return home!  (high fiving dh)

He eventually crashes too..PICT0310

just not until he said this:

"Mom ~ this was ALLOT of fun today and I had a great time with my cousins at the beach and fishing with you dad was so cool, thank your for doing this.."

Appreciation : PRICELESS

Then he says whines: "what are we gonna do when we get home? 

And dh and I tell strongly urge him to go to sleep!!!

Some things just don't last!

Hope you enjoyed our trip with us!

I love aquariums.....they are interesting, fun, and educational all at the same time. Looks like a great time was had by all. :) Heather S.

Why is is when you want them to go to sleep on the way home, they are normally wide awake??

We were on our way home this weekend from our never ending ball tournaments and Logan talked non-stop all the way home, and it was like 10:00 at night.
