aquarium fun!

For soooo long i have been wanting to take gia to the camden aquarium but it is SO far from our house and would be a rough day trip. we kinda learned our lesson with sesame place on her bday... so i thought if we stayed at my dad's it would be a way more doable distance. my dad had a day he had to use before the end of august so he took off 2 wednesdays ago. the kiddies and i stayed at my dads the night before and headed out in the morning.

the view from outside, it was really nice, never would know you were in ghetto ass camden!

 waiting to enter, so glad we got there early the line when we were leaving was insane!

 it was so dark so hard to get good pics, but i tried! she was loving everything... 'fish mama fish!'

 with her poopa (how she says grandpa)

 sharks and more! so impressed with this place.

 pigtails :)

 here was where you could touch the sting rays

 they even had baby sting rays so little kiddies like gia could be at the same height.

 there was an outdoor area with seals, so cute!

 and penguins!

 frogs...

 that is a hippo... this part was crazy. there were 2 hippos and this whole habitat. it was warm and there were birds and everything

 on poopa's shoulders, so cute, my dad always did this to me when i was younger :)

 another hippo shot.

 then when you walked around the corner, this was the view of the water the hippos were in. SO MANY FISH!!!!

 crazy right?

 time for some jellyfish, this part was so cool too.

 this was the tank where the sharks were. gia was showing her princess everything too.

 of course she wouldn't look at the camera

 sharks!

 We had so much fun, that place was awesome! I am already planning a Philly weekend in the early spring so we can do the aquarium and zoo and stay overnight. Maybe around Jack's bday bc he will be old enough to at least check some stuff out.

It was also nice to spend time at my dad's, Gia was having so much fun with him. Just wish you could see us all mom!
