Fish!

Sam loves fish so we decided on our break to take her to the Adventure Aquarium in NJ. It was kind of a disappointment from Mark and my point of view in terms of the actual exhibit. We had been to the Baltimore, MD aquarium and well, that place is amazing! The Camden, NJ aquarium leaves a lot to be desired in terms of what is on show. But, when you get right down to it, the important thing is whether Sam had a good time, and boy did she ever! We saw fish, jellyfish, seahorses, an alligator, hippos, penguins, seals, and sharks and Sam could not have been happier. When I was putting her to bed, she kept saying, Fish! Penguins! Big tunnel! (there was a tunnel where you are surrounded on three sides by the tank) Holding tails! (some of the seahorses had their tails linked like they were holding hands) and she got to come home with some frogs from the gift shop, so all in all, the trip was a success. I would bet there are a lot of things that Mark and I will do as parents that start out as not the greatest fun for us, but when we look at Sam’s face, it will become worth every second. We still think we are going to take her to Baltimore though so she can really see a true aquarium. Here are some pictures.
