Day at the Aquarium










































Wow - we had a lot of fun today. Hudson wanted to go see a movie and have popcorn, but there weren't any good movies for him to see. So instead, we took a trip to the Downtown Aquarium. It was pretty reasonable. We got to do all the attractions for $15.99 each. Too bad Hudson wasn't cheaper, but it was well worth the fun. You can also pay for things individually, but it's a better deal to buy the package.
We visited the aquarium - which is awesome. They have some of the coolest marine life I've ever seen. Plus they have awesome White Tigers. The tigers are very active because they are in a cool environment, not at the hot zoo. They were coming right up to the glass, eating in front of us, and one even pooped in the lake while everyone was watching. Is was quite funny. We watched the trainer put food out and then the tigers were let out again to eat the beef. I think this was my favorite part.
After the aquarium, we walked over to Hard Rock Cafe and ate. Then we headed back to the aquarium. We rode the train through a tunnel of sharks - that was cool. We also rode the carousel but skipped riding the ferris wheel (because I don't like those). Then we went to the dancing water. Hudson had a blast there. They even had a balloon toss game that Hudson entered. An older girl there offered to be his partner. She was really nice and her mom was too.
These are the pics from the day.

Looks like you did have a really fun time. My favorite photos is the funny faces. We need to go again when I get home. I've always wanted to ride that ferris wheel (or the one in Kehma.)

You should look at Jean's blog. They went to play in dancing water too. It was Clayton's first time and it looks like he had fun.
