We went up to Seattle earlier this week to attend my friend Jenny's baby shower and decided to make a mini break out of our trip. Jorge had never been to Seattle before and I hadn't been in up a really long time so it was fun for us all. For the next couple of days I will post pictures of some of the different things we did.
First up is the aquarium.
When you walk in to the aquarium there is a ginormous wall/tank that you can walk right up to. When we were leaving they were doing a presentation with a scuba diver talking from inside the tank.
I love the tide pools, especially those sticky sea anemones.
I was really fascinated by the octopus and how active she was. Usually when we go to the aquarium or marine science center the octopus is just chilling in the corner. This one was all over the place
Such pretty colors.
Damian has that octopus wrapped around his fingers!
The fish in these tanks either like to show off or think we look just as goofy as we think they do. They loved to swim right by the window, especially this puffer fish.
Damian didn't know where to look while we were in the underwater dome.
The star of the aquarium right now is the 2 week old baby sea otter. She was so cute snuggling up on top of her mommy.
A proud momma otter. The daddy otter is currently staying at the Portland Zoo while baby gets acclimated to her new surroundings.
My otter boys!
How does Damian measure up to a shark?
One more look at the octopus who had finally settled in for a little nap.
I didn't even know Seattle had an aquarium! Looks like lots of fun.
