Aquarium and Botanical Garden

Noah and I met up with our friends yesterday in the big city and visited the Aquarium and Botanical Gardens. Already we are loving our "Zoo" membership -- who knew there was a lovely, lush garden in the vicinity?? And a farm on-site!?

Biggest hit of the day? Our friend's wagon! We will be ordering one asap.

Other highlights included the sheep (dog, dog, dog) and the big tank at the aquarium. Picture a kid who loves animals, and loves water .... he literally could not stop saying "water, dog, water, dog, water, dog". Apparently sharks are water dogs with fins...



Looking at the sheep




























Soooo happy!!













Baaa-aaa











































My summer boy











































Playing before lunch



























In his friend's wagon. He would not get out!











Thankfully it was a 2-seater












Still in it... (mind you, all the other kids were off playing)










WATER!!!!



























(our camera is broken - huge bummer. these are all from my phone - not the best quality but thank goodness for cell cameras!)
