Newport Aquarium

We took Evan to the Newport Aquarium yesterday. He absolutely loved it! He really got excited when he got to see the rays, eels, turtles, and sharks. Of course the fish, alligators, lorikeets, otters, starfish, penguins, snails, shrimp, crabs, frogs, and jellyfish were cool too.

Evan enjoyed looking at the fish when were first got to the aquarium.





Petting the starfish was fun!



Looking at the huge snapping turtle.



"Wow! That is one big fish!"



The alligators were a hit with Evan. Some were lounging on the deck like the ones in the picture below, but others were swimming in the water.



Evan liked sliding off the giant frog after I took his picture.



We tried to feed the lorikeets, but they were not hungry.



Evan liked looking at the ray with Daddy.



We got to walk through several tunnels and see fish, sharks, and rays. Evan really liked the tunnels.



The jellyfish were beautiful.



Taking a break for some milk.



Santa was scuba diving!



Evan LOVED the sharks!







Evan got to pet a shark! After he pet the shark he smiled and said, "I did it!" It was so cute!



As usual, Evan enjoyed seeing the penguins.
