August 20th, The Aquarium of the Pacific

Tami so kindly invited us to see some fishes today :) I must say that Long Beach is my fav SoCal location so far! The view from the parking garage...
The Aquarium...

Sam couldn't quite reach the stingrays, but he LOVED watching them swim by...
The Aquarium was so perfect for Sam! He loved watching the brightly colored fish swim around :)

It was hard to get good photos...the rooms were quite dark, so if you flashed you darken the fish...if you don't, you blur Sam...


Us in the Lorikeet forest... A lorikeet...
Us by the seals and sea lions...
I LOVE this photo!




Sam received lots of compliments on his backpack! He really liked the freedom to walk around :)

Who can resist a mini photoshoot ???

It was great having Ashton for Sam to follow around and to point out neat fishes :)












That's the Queen Mary (not to be confused with the QM II that visits Halifax harbour once in a while) that's permanately docked in Long Beach... (yes, for all you Arrested Development fans, the very vescile on which the final episode was shot!)
