Tacoma Zoo (Aquarium)

La and the kids went to the Tacoma Zoo (which had an aquarium) - looks like they had a great time!

More Pictures from this past Monday - Niagara Aquarium

This aquarium was small, and there was a lot of focus on sharks. But they had some interesting exhibits - especially the brook trout, the sturgeon and the gar. This was included in the price of the Maid of the Mist ticket pack (which made us feel compelled to go - the price of admission is $10 a la cart).

Georgia Aquarium




We went to see the Georgia Aquarium last Saturday.

NEVER go to this place on a weekend - total madhouse.

Despite the sardine can effect, this aquarium had some jaw dropping exhibits - particularly the Ocean Explorer.

Not one, not two, but three Whale Sharks - a good sized Great Hammerhead and several Mantas - all in a huge tank.

Impressive to say the least.

The other displays were good, but I think the crowd threw us off from taking it all in.

SO, to date we have been to the following aquariums:
Virginia Beach Marine Science Museum
Baltimore Aquarium
Long Beach Aquarium
Seattle Aquarium
Georgia Aquarium
Aquarium of the Americas (New Orleans)
Enoshima Aquarium (Shonan, Japan)
Monterey Aquarium
Waikiki Aquarium
Sea World San Diego
Underwater World Guam
The Bass Pro Shops in Destin, San Antonio, Knoxville, Baton Rogue, Corona, and several others
Smaller ones that I can't remember

Looking forward to getting a membership at the Baltimore Aquarium soon
