National Aquarium in Baltimore

On Monday the kids and I went with a friend and her boys to Baltimore to visit the National Aquarium!  It's about an hr and a half drive from where we are and was a perfect little day trip for the 6 of us :)  It's been on my to-do list for quite some time, and the kids loved it!  I would say it's not quite as great as the VA Beach Aquarium or Ripley's Aquarium in Gatlinburg, but it ranks up there ;) 

Our boys are almost the same ages (just a few months apart between them) so they are all good buddies! 

The kids were just amazed by everything, so fun to watch them enjoy the day! 

Here are Michael and Alex waiting for the dolphin show to start!  That was probably my favorite part of the trip, so fun! About halfway through the show though, Alex asked me when they were going to do tricks, LOL... I guess it takes a lot to impress a 4 yr old when they've seen all kinds of crazy stuff on TV ;) 

Nathan would yell, "This is AWESOME!" as he ran from tank to tank, too cute! 

We had such a fun day!  Hoping to go back and do the Children's Museum there... it's ranked amongst the top few and was what we were originally going to do, until we found out it was closed on Mondays through the off-season ;)
