Under the Sea

We just took a trip to the new
Arizona SeaLife Aquarium
it's just 12 miles down the road in Tempe!
When we got there Junior was asleep - tried as hard as I could but he just wouldn't wake up...
poor guy :)

The boys had a lot of fun, the aquarium has questions for the kids to answer throughout the aquarium and they also had a hands on section where you could touch starfish, shrimp and a few other little creatures.

When Junior woke up he didn't know what to think - there were fish everywhere he looked!


They also had these fun bubbles in several of the tanks - next best thing to scuba diving.


The fish and corals were beautiful.


Of course, Bubba loved the the Tylosaurous skeleton with the sharks swimming all around... if you didn't know he is VERY in to skeletons and sharks!










The boys had a great time!
And here's a tip for anyone wanting to go (which I discovered by accident) -
buy your tickets online!
I just happened to buy mine online, because I was able to get a discount - when we arrived at the aquarium the ticket line wait was about 45-60 minutes, but because I had pre-purchased my tickets we got to go through prepaid ticket line - which had no one in it and we got to walk right in... very nice!!!
