The Dallas Aquarium

On Saturday we visited the Dallas Aquarium (along with the rest of the city!) It was different than we imagined in that it is part aviary as well as aquarium and had a really nice feel to it. Sofia didn't stay in her stroller for long (it's hard to see all the animals and we don't plan on bringing it next time). Sofia would take off like a linebacker threading through visitors walking down the narrow walkway, CK would try to follow with a flurry of "excuse me"s and I would follow far behind pushing the empty stroller.....somehow we didn't lose each other! She loved seeing all the animals and the stingrays and turtles left quite an impression - she was talking about them all day today!

Arriving at the Aquarium

Looking for the river otter (we decided he must have escaped because we never saw him)


Papa pointing out the tamarins


Cool starfish!


The huge aquarium - Sofia loved watching the fish and learned how to identify a catfish

Papa and Sofia join the fish (sort of...)
