Hangin' with the fishes



Today we spent a great day down at Newport Aquarium, even though it seemed like everyone else in the greater Cincy area had the same idea. I had never been to the aquarium and I was impressed. They had lots of hands on stuff for the kids to do. Kyler was very disappointed that he didn't have his fishing pole! They had a great rainforest bird room that you could bring in a cup of nectar to feed to the birds. Although all the kids got a cup of nectar, only Abby was brave enough to allow a bird to climb on her. It repaid her by quickly biting her! After a walk through the shark tunnel, everyone got to pet the sharks. Alex was shown up by his little sisters who were both eager to touch the sharks. He never quite got up the nerve. We finished our afternoon with a great dinner at Brio, a nice Italian restaurant. Thanks for the great day, Granny!!
