A Hippo at an Aquarium ?

Liam and I had never been to an Aquarium so Jon thought it would be a good idea to go! And he was right!! We got up early one Saturday morning and made our way down to Camden. Liam was very excited to see all the fishies and was great for the ride down! Once we got there we were both amazed! I have never heard him say WOW so many times

While we were there, Jon and Liam stopped for a silly picture!


This picture was taken right after Liam touched a real live jellyfish!! I couldnt believe he actually reached down and touched it! I knew that after a 2 year old did it, that meant Mommy had to do it as well! Liam was so excited, although his excitment did not carry over to the baby sharks or sting rays. Perhaps he has been told of the demise of Mr. Irwin.

Starfish seemed much more touchable for Liam and he was eager with some encouragement to reach his hand into the chilly water! His face lit up everytime he saw a new fishie!

There was an outdoor section of the zoo that held the sea lions and the adorable little tuxedo wearing penguins! There was a turtle statue outside and even though Liam had been afraid of the real sea turtles inside the Aquarium, this one suited him much better!

Oh No!!! Liam has been eaten by a shark! I was suprised when he actually let me put him in this sharks mouth!

This was outside the Aquarium by the river. It was beautiful and Liam loved looking at the boats in the water!

It was such a nice day we took the long way walking back to the car, and decided to stop at a cute little pub across the street. It was called the Victor, and it was in the old RCA Victor building. I wish I would have gotten a picture of the old stained glass in the tower of the building, it was adorned with a picture of that cute little white puppy! Liam had a great time running around on the patio outside, and only fell once! It was a wonderful day, and it was awesome to see Liam so excited over all the fish we saw!
