Shark Bait

Crew has been fascinated by sea life lately so we took him to the Long Beach Aquarium. Normally it's a trip or two during the week to Petco to watch the fish and snakes.  

The Aquarium features different galleries that highlight the major regions of the Pacific. There were two different sting ray pools where you could pet them. And I mean PET! They'll swim right up to you like they want to play and will splash and jump around. I thought it was rather odd behavior since sting rays seem so threatening. Crew went crazy over the snorkelers who were in the tanks feeding the fish. They also had touch pools with starfish, coral and different plant life. 

Crew hasn't stopped talking about the sharks and fish since. So we're on our way out the door to head over to Petco. Maybe if he's lucky he'll find a shark.
