The Dallas Aquarium

A few weeks back, my little brother Tracy convinced me to run in the Rock and Roll Marathon with him in Dallas. I ended up running a relay with a friend of his and it was lots of fun. Most importantly, it got me back into the running mode. But before we ran, Travis wanted to take Ava to the Dallas Aquarium and IT WAS GREAT! It was truly on of the neatest places, but next time we know to plan for a weekday or early morning on the weekend.

The aquarium is set up like a huge tree house and looking over the bridge you see alligators, fish, ducks, and lots of crazy birds. Ava was in awe of all of the animals!
And then we went underground to the FISH!!!! The best part in Ava's mind.
They were all around her. Fish Fish and more fish
We are in HEAVEN!
I think we set on this ledge for about 30 minutes looking at the sharks, stingrays, and other scary fish. It took all the convincing we could to get Ava out of this room and then we got lost and ended up right back there again. So it was back to the negotiating.
Yes, Ava is wearing a leash. She loves to run from place to place so I let her think she has free range but in fact she is never more than 3 feet away.
