Aquarium visit

Since we were down in Cincinnati this weekend and the wedding was not until 5:30pm Saturday, we thought we would head across the river and go see the aquarium again. The hidden motive was that maybe it would tire Julia out enough that she would nap that afternoon.

Julia likes the aquarium, but I really do to....

Luckily, there was not too many people there so Julia was free to run from tank to tank as she liked.

The aquarium is really dark, so I really only got pictures in the areas where it had better lighting, so unfortunately, I did not get pictures of the fish.


Playing with the giant rainforest frog....


Digging for dinos! Actually, I think Julia just thought it was a neat sandbox to play in.

Feeding the lorikeets. Julia was just captivated by them.

She REALLY wanted to pet the lorikeets.

I think the lorikeets really liked Jerrod!!

Julia trying to touch the SHARKS!! (they let you touch the sharks in this tank)

Sure she goes after the sharks, but she freak out when I tried to get her to touch the harmless horseshoe crab.....

This aquarium has several 360 degree tunnel tanks you walk though. Julia thought those were really neat, but was pretty unsure of the see-through floors. She did not like to walk on them.

We also got to see a diver in the shark exhibit feeding the sharks!! Julia thought that was pretty cool.

Oh, and the aquarium worked. We got about a 30-45 minute nap out of Julia afterwards. I would have liked it to have been longer, but it was enough to keep her happy and going for the rest of the night!
