Under the Sea

I had all these fun things in mind for Isaac’s spring break while Chris was gone, and we ended up house bound the whole time. We’re making up for it now! The Marsh Pavilion at the aquarium has the seahorses and otters, and we’d never been there. It was surprisingly small, so we had plenty of time left over to trot through the nature trail area, climb an observation tower, and play in the special play area before a quick pass of the regular exhibits. The tunnel tank where fish, sting rays and sharks swim over and around you is my favorite. Isaac touched a sting ray in the touch tank for the first time. Both kids were wiped out by the walk back, so I had to carry Isaac like a backpack. “You look well-balanced there,” Chris said when I sent him this picture. Thanks. That is, in fact, what I’m going for. You know, in life.
