Texas State Aquarium

On our way to Port Aransas, we spent a day in Corpus Christi while Brad did some business.  The kids had a great time staying at the hotel and swimming in the pool.  While we were in Corpus, we went to the Texas State Aquarium.  If you are ever in Corpus, I recommend spending the afternoon there.

They were very excited to get their picture made with the turtle.

They had a dolphin show that you could watch above or below the water.  It was neat to see them “perform” from under the water

We got to watch a diver swim in one of the tanks, then the kids wanted a picture with her in the background

It was so hard to take pics because it was dark in the room, but all the tanks were lit up.  So, here are a few I tried without the flash.

After we finished with the Aquarium we headed to Port Aransas for a few days with The Greene family.  (Pics coming soon)  Brad and I thought the kids would enjoy taking the ferryboat over to the island, so we waited in the 45 minute line for them to sleep through the whole thing!  Oh well…I just could not bear to wake them!  :)
