Seeing My City: Ripley's Aquarium

Ever since the aquarium opened this year, I have been dying to go.

I mean, who wouldn't want to walk through a tunnel while being surrounded by sharks? Exactly.

The boyfriend came up for the weekend and we woke up bright and early on a Sunday morning to make our way downtown and go participate in some wholesome family fun. I say that because good lord, there were about a million families there. If you're thinking of having kids, don't go to a place like that one on the weekend. These kids pushed me back about another 5 years on the baby having timeline…and my tolerance for children has already made me push them off for at least another 8 years. Thanks a lot kids, you'll may make me go through menopause before I decide I want you…but I digress.

Here are my shots from the day:

Breakfast!

 Nemo and Dori!

The aquarium was really fun. There was tons to see, it was incredibly interesting, and made for a good way to spend a Sunday.

Visit Ripley's Aquarium if you're ever in the city…just try to go on a weekday so you aren't surrounded by a million small children. Im not even kidding, Jordan actually tripped over a child at one point. That's a perfect description of what it was like.
