Trip to the Houston AquariumMama had to work last Sunday (hence the seriously interrupted blogging), so dada and I drove down after my nap to visit her and take her to dinner. We got "the pass", which allowed to do all sorts of fun stuff. First we rode the ferris wheel. I wasn't so sure about it, until mama pulled out the John Deere gummies and then everything was just fine.
Can't beat gummies up in the sky!
Next we rode on the train, which was very cool since I'm all about trains these days. I even plan to ask Santa Claus for a train set.
At one point, the train stopped inside a big tunnel. All of a sudden the lights turned on and we were surrounded by SHARKS! Dada, look out, there's one headed straight for your head. I kept saying "get out, get out now!"
Mama thought it was cool when a big shark passed over us. I was still saying "get out, get out now." Eventually they let us out.
I was much happier on the merry go round, although it took me five tries to decide which sea animal to ride on. I eventually went with the sea horse.
While we were waiting in line, mama and I crawled on these guys.
We also got to tour the actual acquarium. I stared at this huge fish. He was cool!

Dada showed me his favorite fish, the arawana. Dada used to have an arawana in his fish tank, but he stopped buying them after his favorite one jumped out of the tank and stunk up mama and dada's old apartment.
