The Living Planet Aquarium










Today I went to The Living Planet Aquarium with two of my sisters, my niece, her boyfriend and their two little boys. I had a really great time and I'm so happy that my niece came for a visit. I haven't seen her since September and her two little boys have both grown so much.
I love going to this aquarium because it has gotten better and better all the time. They keep making improvements and adding on to it, all the time. It was supposed to be a big four or five level aquarium with a big giant tank that went all the levels. I guess it never got the approval to build that building and has stayed where it's been for quite a while. It used to be at a mall or it was just a small preview of what it was going to be and it was supposed to be at that mall and that never happened. I'm glad that it's here though and I can go to it. I haven't been to it for about three or four years now. That's a long time. They just got the penquin encounter a year or two ago. They are working on a new area and it's going to be nice when it's completed. I took a lot of pictures and I'm glad I have a digital camera.
The sad part about my visit is that I missed looking at the sharks. I forgot all about them because they are in the same area as those stingrays that you can touch. I was so busy taking pictures and videotaping that I forgot about the sharks and I love watching them. I missed getting a picture of them too.
After we went out to eat at one of my favorite restaurants. I had a wonderful day, even though it was cold and dreary outside. Spring is still a wonderful time of the year. I love how some idiots think that Spring means it's going to all of a sudden be warm or hot and sunny all the time. Spring is a transitional time when Winter is leaving and Summer is coming. You usually have a mixed bag of different weather at this time.
