We had a nice trip out today with my in-laws. It was the first trip ever to the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach, CA for my Husband, our son, and myself. We enjoyed ourselves. All of us did.
Our son, of course, was a very explorative 2 year old. He loved the "Sea Spiders" (crabs) best. He also swore that the otters were sea monkeys. Not sure why, since we had sea monkeys and they certainly weren't anything like an otter haha.
We touched some starfish ("darkish"), sea anemones, sea cucumbers (I wonder why so much as sea in it's name, we know that's where they are from.....) sting rays, and a few other creatures. We fed some colorful birds, watched some large boats, looked at all the exhibits, and my son drove a toy boat as well.
The trip was free for our son, and there were 5 adults. It just happened to work out that buying a membership for two (a couple membership the way they sell it) saved us some money. So we did that for us and we can now go back whenever we like for the next year. We are in Los Angeles, so it isn't too far away and I think it will be great to go back a few times this next year so our son can learn more and more about sea life. I do suggest everyone who gets the chance should go once in their life. Or whichever aquarium is close to you. They are fun and educational.
