Fun While We Waited....

...We went to the Aquarium Downtown. While we where there they were practicing with their peregrine falcon. It was an awesome bird. While it was training there was other random birds that were dive bombing at it. The keeper said they do that every time the predator bird is out as a defense.
We were excited to get inside and see the fish but first stopped to get pictures in the dive suit.
And the shark's jawbone. I love Matthew's face here.
There was a lot to see and a lot of us to see it. The Toucan, the big Salmon, the Sting-ray that Annalyn was kissing are just a few.
The touch tank was neat. Even Annalyn thought it was fun to touch the starfish.
The boys took turns climbing the palm trees and they all made it to the top. For Nic getting up was easy. The weight of the pulley system was slightly more than he was. It helped pull him up but almost didn't let him down.
Just as we were leaving this keeper brought a python out. Even Annalyn loved that.
Had to share this video. These are Piranha.
