One Fish, Two Fish, Three Fish...

The Florida Aquarium is ranked in the top 10 Aquariums in the country so it's no wonder that Skyler had a fabulous visit to this beautiful Tampa exhibit in the Channelside district.
We enjoyed all five exhibits...We explored the Wetlands Trail, discovered over 20,000 aquatic plants and animals at Bays and Beaches, looked at the beautiful and diverse ecosystems in the world at the Coral Reef Gallery, took a close encounter tour at Ocean Commotion and journeyed to Madagascar to get face to face with ring-tailed lemurs.....Skyler's favorite! Here are a few of my favorite pictures capturing our day...




 Breathtaking....






We took a quick lunch break before playing in a 2-acre outdoor water park adventure zone. Sky cooled off while I relaxed under the shade of the Cantina bar and grill. The Caribbean themed family-friendly exhibit makes for the perfect stop during the aquarium visit!





 Outdoor fun....


We kept returning to the Madagascar Exhibit. It was Sky's favorite. The gallery captured some of the uniqueness of the island while addressing some of the challenges that threaten it natural wonders. It certainly was an an entertaining and educational experience into learning more about this amazing place, and what we can do to help its people and wildlife. 

 Sky fell in love with the lemurs. A future trip is definitely planned!
