Under the Sea!

Let me just start out by saying, I love it out here! There is so much to do in Philly that it's overwhelming in the best possible way. I have no idea if we are going to see all there is to see in the short three years we have left out here, but it's going to be fun trying!

Almost a month ago (I'm quite behind), we decided to have a fun aquarium day with the Bostons. We'd just purchased an aquarium pass and were itching to use it. It's in New Jersey, but it only takes about twenty minutes to get there. And it's a fun drive crossing the bridge to get there. The aquarium was HUGE and a lot of fun. The best part was how much the kids loved it, even Skyler, who normally hates to be in his stroller, was eating it all up. Sea life is so CREEPY, in a really cool way, and fun to observe from behind a glass!

Me being the hyper, obsessive blogger that I am, took about a trillion pictures. If you need to take a break, get a drink of water, stretch, please do. I'm all about your health.

The view and the bridge right in front of the aquarium.

While we were there we saw a 4-D (who knew there was 4-D!) Sponge Bob movie. It was really short, but pretty cool. They tried to make it more of a ride with rumbly floors and chairs and air that they shot from the back of your seat. Jayda had her hands over her ears the whole time, but kept her glasses on. Skyler didn't keep his glasses on, but pointed at the screen the whole time, fairly mesmerized and drooling.

You could touch these sting rays, I got 90% brave enough, but still needed that last 10%!

Gosh he's cute.

Dori!

Gosh she's getting so big, stop it!

The ceiling in one of the main corridors, not the best picture, but really pretty.

Jayda and Xander, obviously teasing me by playing out my worst nightmare.

This is a horrible picture, but these were one of my favorites. The jellyfish are so pretty and glow.
