We went to Seaside’s tiny aquarium when we first arrived. It was still a lot of fun even though it was so little. They had a little touch pond and lots of windows to see things from the ocean. Dallas was in heaven! He loves all animals-especially when they can’t get to him.
Looking and touching the starfish. He was a bit nervous at first, but then he did just fine.
Trying to get Wes to look at the camera….no such luck.
Guess it helps to have someone take the photo for you! Then Wes can’t reach for it.
There was a stencil/coloring area for the kids. Dallas had fun coloring an octopus, fish and other sea creatures.
This is Victor. He was the BIGGEST LOBSTER I have ever seen in my life. Can’t remember the story behind it, but he was stolen and dropped and that’s how he died. Sad huh.
The seals were our favorite part! You could feed them fish for $1 so that’s what we did!
They would clap their belly and try and splash you if you didn’t feed them quick enough. A lady feeding them got soaked because one seal just kept splashing her! It was fun to watch.
There was a tiny window that you could bend down and see them-this one swam right up to me and I tried to take a photo as quickly as I could. It’s blurry, but still cute.
Toby and Dallas with the fish-GROSS. I didn’t think Dallas would touch it but he did. He had a lot of fun throwing the food to them.
It was a fun little experience. Dallas loves animals and so Toby and I enjoyed sharing that with him. Wes didn’t do too bad himself! Then again, his mother was holding him the whole time. :)
