Aquarium

I am off to bed. But wanted to get that final post of the night/early morning put on here. Around 930am we will be heading off to Newport, Oregon. We are going to visit the aquarium, the beach, and I am sure the shops, too! Last time we went over (its about an hour drive... Give or take) Papa Harley was here, and Indiana enjoyed the aquarium so much Chris and I bought a membership. He loved the cool air outside, and the shark tubes enthralled him inside. (in this photo we were inside a shark tunnel and he couldn't take his eyes off the sharks swimming overhead) He also seemed to like the enormous tank of Jellys. This time if it isn't too crowded I think I am going to have him visit the "touch tank". That is a neat exhibit where you can feel the different marine things (such as a star fish or a sea anemone). He is right at the age where he notices different textures and enjoys comparing them. He pets kitties and doggies, and he loves the fluffy pillows in stores.
