The Aquarium

A couple weekends ago, we headed out for the free aquarium in San Pedro. Kailey had been begging us to go see the fish for awhile and you just can't beat free, so we decided to check this one out. It is actually a pretty neat place with quite a bit of things to see. There are even some tidal pools a short walk away. Much easier to get to than the last tidal pools we ventured out to. Here are some of the highlights of the day.
Kailey just couldn't hold still at first as she ran from exhibit to exhibit


Her favorite exhibit by far. I know, its gross so forgive me for posting it, but she makes me look at it every time I turn on the computer and so now it will just be easier for me to access it! If you can't tell, its an anglerfish or a "Nemo fish" as Kailey calls it.

At the end, Kailey was very tired, and very grumpy and it was showing in the pictures. The funny thing was that she would run up to the structures and pose and tell me to take pictures, but she would make the grumpiest faces imaginable for the camera rather than smiling. We were laughing so hard at her faces and it only made her grumpier. Here are a couple of the highlights.

We even got the hands on the hips for this one, emphasizing her mood.

We decided to venture to the tidal pools, but unfortunately there were a couple large groups of teenagers there and they had scared off all the creatures except for a few sea urchins.
