Down by the Bay......



Brianne checking out the sights


The cute little penguins were not so popular with Brooke
Trevy and I in the penguin nest


How do we compare to the size of a whale?


Awesome looking jelly fish!

How does a jelly fish feel to touch?


The tide coming right over us!

I hope I don't get wet!!

The object the kids touch lights up to show a match



Under the Sea


We are ready for the aquarium!

On our second day in Monterey we headed to the Aquarium (thanks for the passes Jen and family). The kids were amazed at all the sights! They would get really close to glass and stare and point. They would jump from exhibit to exhibit. The aquarium has changed a lot since I went when I was younger. There were lots of huge tanks of fish, sharks, kelp, etc. There were sea otters and penguins, interactive activities for the kids. There was also a place called Splash Zone which had games, art, and water activities for the kids to play with. Brooke loved all the different sea animals and even touched the star fish. When Brianne was awake her eyes would get big and she would really focus on the bright colors and large fish! Brooke told me her favorite was the jelly fish because they were "really pretty" and she was not a fan (tears were shed) of the penguins. One of the penguins jumped right at the window she was looking at and she was spooked! Overall it was a really fun day with lots of new experiences for the kids. We will definetly be visiting there again when Brianne is older! Thanks Evos for a great time and lots of laughs!
