Inquarium

For Father's Day, we went to Pike Street Press for breakfast and then decided to check out the aquarium since we were in the neighborhood! We took Cameron to the aquarium when he was about 18 months old, but of course he doesn't remember it. He could hardly contain himself when he learned of our plans. "ADAM goes to the INQUARIUM!" he kept shouting. Adam is an older boy at school, and if ADAM does it, it must be GREAT. Cameron loved the dive show and walking through the Shark Tunnel. He was not a fan of the glass floors and did NOT want to touch a shark in the touch tank. In fact, he kept grabbing my hands and saying, "Don't touch a SHARK, Mommy! It could BITE you!" (Note: Very tiny sharks in the touch tank. Very large sharks in the tunnels.) Unfortunately, dark tunnels and water don't make for great photos, so here are the few that turned out! First, checking out some playful otters:

Then, giving a shark a shot:

And just something I've noticed . . . whenever I take a photo vertically, I need to rotate the photo clockwise. If Dave took the photo, I need to rotate it counter-clockwise. We are both right-handed, yet we consistently hold the camera in the opposite way. Hmmmm. Interesting.
