Today we decided to take advantage of the holiday and do something fun. We slept in, did very little school-related work, and headed north to check out The Living Planet Aquarium in Sandy. Ainslie is still a pretty big fan of fish, so we thought this would be right up her alley.
The aquarium is really pretty cool. The first thing that we saw were these amazing jellyfish.
Ainslie loved the big aquariums with lots of bright tropical fish.
We saw all kinds of colorful fish, and we even found Nemo . . .
Ainslie also enjoyed the motorboat,
and she had a great time with the "hands on" exhibits. Her arms were just a little too short to reach the stingrays and the "crabbies," but she would have jumped right in if we would have let her.
The trip really was for Ainslie, but we all had a good time getting to know some of the aquatic friends at The Living Planet. It was a fun place to spend the afternoon.
But, that wasn't all the fun we had . . . burgers at Chadder's and a trip to what has become known as "the dream house" rounded out a rather pleasant day off. Too bad it's back to the grind tomorrow because we could get used to this vacation business.
