Two weeks ago, we took a trip down to our local boardwalk and paid a visit to the small aquarium nestled on the end. It's a quaint little aquarium that consists of two floors but it holds quite a number of aquatic animals.
A group of eight of us went and prior to our aquarium visit, we had the most delicious brunch where Chase polished off an entire hot dog and several french fries.
Once we got onto the boardwalk, we walked straight towards the aquarium building. When we finally got inside, we all had our hands stamped and made our way to our first sight. First up was a large shark tank that Chase and my nephew Myles were fascinated by. Then came a sunken ship turtle exhibit (my favorite), followed by a few other tanks with lots of different species of fish and shellfish.
After we finished off the tanks, it was onto the penguins! Most of them were right up against the glass, which was so great because we got to see so much up close! After we finished downstairs, we took the boys upstairs to a small touch tank and to the seal exhibit.
This was the first trip to an aquarium for both of the boys and they just loved it! I'm so glad they are close in age and get to experience fun like this together! We can't wait to go again!
We had such a great day and I can't believe I can cross yet another "first" off of Chase's list!
**I apologize for the grainy and somewhat dark photos. We forgot to bring our camera so we used my iPhone which has such a delay lately!
