Back to the Aquarium

On the heels of watching "Finding Nemo" we took a trip back to the Birch Aquarium in La Jolla. We managed to time it right to see them feed the sharks, which was quite exciting! We also got quite a bit more interaction with Justin while we were there. He pointed out several fish by name from the movie--"Nemo" or "Marlin" for the clown fish and "Dorie" for the blue tang (yeah, I had to look that one up). And knew several of the others by their proper names--sharks, penguins, snakes (for eels--I figured it was close enough).

Which way to start!?


Getting a better view of the wall exhibit with dad.

A better view of the feeding.


Having fun in the shark cage.


Checking out the penguin display.


Yep, there's Nemo (or is it Marlin?).


One last picture as we leave in front of the huge whale fountain.
