A Very Fishy Post

Disclaimer: This post has NOTHING to do with food because, all though I do love a good piece of fish, in this post: fish are friends, not food!  (And by fish I mean all types of aquatic life…)

This past weekend when my sister, mom, aunt & uncle visited me in NorCal, we took a very rainy day in Santa Cruz to venture down to Monterey to the Monterey Bay Aquarium.

At the aquarium, we were wowed by the amazing aquatic life we found:

It was truly an amazing trip to the aquarium, and I’m so glad we went!

Next on my list of aquarium type places?  San Diego Sea World!

What are you favorite type of aquatic (preferably those you don’t eat Winking smile)? Mine are seahorses – could you tell by all the pictures?  I just think they’re adorable and I’d like to have one – or 17 as pets.  but I fear that I’d probably kill them all.

  1. How cool is this!

    The penguins are especially cute. I’ve always loved them. They are just so adorable when the waddle around! :)

    We went to the Baltimore Aquarium last weekend! Do otters count as aquatic? If not otters, then definitely seals.

  4. I love aquariums! Swimming in the ocean kind of freaks me out, though, because I know all of those guys are swimming around in there too!

  5. I love the Monterey Bay Aquarium! I love penguins- they are the cutest things ever and I can watch them for hours- just ask my husband.

  6. Seahorses are beyond cute!!! I LOVE them!!
