Virginia Aquarium

We only have a few weekends left here in Virginia Beach so we decided to go out and have some fun this last weekend. Andrew had the day off school yesterday for Columbus Day so we went over to the Virginia Aquarium. We had a lot of fun!



We started our day off with some small sea turtles.




Then we went outside on a nature walk

.

Hunter loved the water!



The weather was absolutely perfect.



After our walk we went back inside and saw some more turtles and small fish.



I don't have any idea what this guy is called but he was really big.


And they're from Flores Island!


Then we crawled through a tunnel...



And got another view of the animals.



We got to see other cool lizard type things.


After the lizards we were able to touch horseshoe crabs, really large snails, starfish, and crabs.



And some sting rays!! How cool is that!


Hunter got a nice view of them.


All the bright colors were so much fun!



These turtles were HUGE!




They were so fun to look at.




These guys were pretty cool too.



Then we got to see some sharks!



Hunter loved standing against he glass and watching them swim.



We were able to go see a bunch of different kinds of birds.



By the end of the day Hunter was exhausted!

Popsicles are the best!



Hunter always begs for some of my popsicle so I finally gave in....



Although you can't tell from his face he loved it!
