The aquarium in Salt Lake City moved locations (now in Draper) and significantly expanded, so we decided we needed to check it out! Josh, Darcy, and their family were in town visiting the other week and wanted to go, so we took advantage of the opportunity!
The penguin exhibit was certainly a favorite! There were lots of penguins and rooms to see them both above and below the water's surface.
And jellyfish...
And seahorses...
The new shark tank had a tunnel through it so you could watch them as they swam overhead.
Here is Caitlin in the tunnel with the sharks! He is coming for her!
Sting rays...
And crazy people in the gift shop!
There was also a 3-D movie on sharks--complete with rumbling/water-spraying chairs! We had a great time!
The exhibits weren't all completed yet since the aquarium just opened this spring, so they said we could redeem our tickets for a second day for free during the summer! As I look at the pictures we have, we definitely missed a lot of the cool things the aquarium had (not to mention Josh and Darcy's family, of whom I apparently have no pictures)...we will be sure to document better next time around! Stay tuned!
You guys are going to see everyone in the family just by staying put where you live. So not fair!! I'm jealous that you got to play with Josh's family and Christian's family, AND you'll get to play with us in a month. Man, you have it good! ; )
ReplyDeleteOh, we DO have it good! That is the benefit of living in the Mormon Mother Ship...they always come back. :-)
