Denver Aquarium

Yesterday we took a fieldtrip day to the Denver Aquarium. I know I had a blast and the kids did too! There were so much to see and it put the Gulfaruim on Santa Rosa Island to shame!!!! This place rocked!!!! There was a 4-D video called The Deep Blue Sea and that was exciting. Gracie sat next to me and she kept asking "mommy, are we really under water...,mommy, are those giant squid really that close, mommy.....mommy" There was a feeding tank for the sting rays and the kids got to feed them fish. They all got to pet them but Gracie was the only one who actually fed the stings ray. The way they eat is wierd and the others found it a bit difficult, the way you hold the fish and the way they eat. It was a little tricky. But Gracie saw Tonya do it and she did it just like her and it was cool. This fish was HUGE!!!
It is so nice when you take a trip like this and the animals all interact with the kids and play...this tiger was so funny to watch and we loved this part of the aquarium!We really want to go back, Jeff had to work so he missed it,so we have to take him. We also had fun with the otters but I am having problems uploading the video.
