What a fun way to spend a cold winter day off (MLK Day) - Baltimore Aquarium!
This aquarium is designed so cleverly!
contained ecosystems set up throughout a hall...
Dolphin Show!
Special Exhibit: Jellies!
Jellies are over 600 million years old. They have witnessed the extinction of dinosaurs, the ice age and the arrival of humans. They look magical.
This is a little kids zone... hands on learning:
(That's Ains racing from item to item....)
On the way out - a replica mini world of the Outback.
Alligators (crocs, actually) were a big hit with A.
Just as we headed to the door, we ran into a woman giving a little talk with her dragon. Ains ran straight for the pillow cushion, sat down and listened. :) (I think she may be ready for big school after all.)
Awe, wonder, magic, and the mystery of the beautiful world we live in.
A day well spent.
chores? Ah, they'll be there when we get home.
