Birch Aquarium

A couple weeks ago, Molly and I joined Will's preschool class for a field trip to the Birch Aquarium in LaJolla. The aquarium is gorgeous...it has beautiful stain glass windows and whale statues with waterfalls outside. They had a special exhibit on seahorses, never knew there were so many kinds and so many different sizes...from big to teeny tiny. :-) They have lots of aquarium's and viewing windows, interactive games and an outside wet area with a gorgeous view of the ocean, and you can feel sea cucumbers, starfish, etc.

Molly looks super tiny on the left side, compared to the statues.

Will looks super tiny underneath the statues.

Gorgeous Seahorse stain glass entrance.

Will's favorite, the Blue Moon Jellyfish.

Love this picture of Will (on the right) and his classmates watching the diver clean the glass of this huge fish tank.

This picture gives you an idea of how big the fishtank is...massive.

Will was in a "I don't want to smile for you" mood.

Then when it was his idea, he was all for it. He REALLY wanted me to take his picture right here with his "squished penny."

Molly was fascinated by this drain for some reason, couldn't keep her away from it.
