Fish and sharks and turtles and stingrays...

We decided today to go to Enoshima Aquarium for Bob's and Jo's last day in Japan.  It'd been over a year since we were last there despite RJ asking several times over the past 12 months.  He loves the aquarium, and I think that Enoshima is by far the nicest one we've seen so far.  We didn't take off until after lunch so that the kiddos could sleep on the hour long drive there.  Once there, we took in the tanks/sights and then watched the dolphin show this afternoon.  Even though the wind was a little cold when we were outside, it was a beautiful day.  The kids had a great time, as did we.

Here are some photos from today's adventure.

One of several stingrays that RJ ID'd as either the Mom, Dad, Baby, or Brother to all the others.

The turtle came in several times for a good look, but RJ wouldn't get any closer to the glass.

Ryleigh had no fear and enjoyed all different animals.

Here she is below the stingrays.

Here she is marveling at the Blue Jellyfish.

I'm not sure why my face is scrunched up (maybe the sun?), but what's a visit to a sight in Japan without a put-your-head-in-the-hole picture?
 
A very nice day today!
