We were also able to go to
Adventure Aquarium in Camden, New Jersey right across the river from Philadelphia. This was the first aquarium I've ever been too, so I don't have anything to compare it with, but IT WAS AWESOME!!!! We loved it! We didn't allot nearly enough time.
Danny got to pet real baby sharks. But since he has issues with getting clothing wet, this wasn't his most favorite thing.
This sea turtle was HUGE! It was so cool. It was much bigger than the ones I've seen in real life in Hawaii.
This was the highlight of the trip!! I could have stayed at the hippo exhibit for another hour, at least! There were two of them and it was so fun watching them play and swim with each other. This may be admitting my
ignorance, but I had NO IDEA that hippos swam like this! It was incredible. They had this 20-
ish ft. display window to watch the hippos underwater. Danny and a few other little kids would run from side to side following the hippos every movement, squealing with delight. He made a little girlfriend there, Mary Jane. They wouldn't leave each others side after that, so we hung out with her mom for the rest of the afternoon while the two of them ran around, held hands and had fun together! I loved listening to them talk to each other. Mary Jane is about 9 months older than Danny, so she spoke really well. I had no idea what Danny was saying sometimes, but it didn't matter, they communicated! It was really cute.
Here is his little girlfriend!

I would love to see the hippos too. Your kids are getting so big!
Your children are adorable. but that hippo... is awesome.
That hippo is scary, Rebecka!!! My goodness ... if something like that was coming at me if I were Danny's size - nightmares for many year to come! :) You guys are all too cute, though. I love that picture of Dan reaching Danny's hand into the water to touch the baby sharks. Very Cool! :)
