Aquarium, Part 2


So, I thought I'd better post this before Part 3 happens.  Which happens tomorrow.  Part 1 is here.

Way back in May, we took the Gombojav children to the Monterey Bay Aquarium as part of their last year's Christmas present.  We took the Abdelaziz children in March, and the Correa children get to go tomorrow.  Now, it might be awhile before I can post Part 3, because we cannot post pictures until the adoption is complete.  *sigh*  Sometimes, paperwork can take forever.

So, here we go!

 Not a little excited, are they?




If you can overlook all the political environmental propagada all over, it is really a fun place.  I love that children can have so much hands-on experiences and learning.



Where there is a will,


there is a way!


Though some may think some things are just too wet and slimy to actually want to touch.



 Pure joy.


These two big ol' kids:


are these two (on the left)!


They've added a few siblings as you can see.


Belgee, second from right.



If you look really closely, you might see baby penquins in that nest.



I understand the feeling.







The following picture was requested by Israel as we were passing this store.  Just because his mom would really like it.  Enjoy, Daja!



This time we stopped for cinnamon rolls as we were walking back to the parking garage.  Nana's choice.  No one minded.
