So we FINALLY get there and even Mad is over come by the huge tank with the tuna and sharks and this big ass fish called a sun fish that was probably bigger than all the kids put together.

Hung out by the Kelp Forrest...

Then we went back to the Kelp Forest where they have a diver go in to feed the fish, and eels

:-/ They give him a mic and he talks from inside the tank. It was pretty cool, you can see him in this picture though it's kinda light. This one eel kept getting RIGHT in his face, like eye to eye with him, it was a little freaky even from my end!

They also have a neat tide pool inside/outside area. Inside they have a walkway that is underneath an area that water crashes out every 20 seconds or so.

We went to the kids area called "Slash Zone" and all the kids found stuff to do, it was nice cause Mad was actually entertained, not just confined to her stroller being stuffed with goldfish just to keep her quiet :-)


We had all actually had a lot of fun and it wasn't AS stressful as some of our outings have been so maybe it just the age and they are starting to grow out of it, or they were tired, I'm not really sure.


After we left we strolled down Canary Row for a bit and found a cool restaurant on the water. We were just going to stop for a second to relax (read: get a drink ;-) when ALL the kids started whiiiiining - "I'm HUNGRY - I'm STAAAARVING" - so we hung out and had dinner. Good thing too cause we didn't get home until 10:30 as it was and that was without having to stop again for dinner! They were all (including us) tired and dirty, but we had fun and it gave us all something to talk about today, so there ya go :-)
