Mermaids at the Aquarium

One afternoon I got the bright idea to make a quick run up to Newport to visit the aquarium. I had gotten an email about the mermaids visiting the aquarium for just a few more days and I knew that the children had really enjoyed it last year. Thankfully we made it in time for the meet and greet and to see the mermaids swimming in the tanks.
The kids getting to meet the mermaid outside of the water before she had to go back to the water.
The kids have no fear at all and really enjoy walking across the Shark Bridge.
View from the Shark Bridge. You can see some of the sharks as well as the large sea turtle.
The best family picture that we could get today. The kids were a little on the wild side.
Picture of my little mini me. He is turning into a little man right before our eyes.
Brinley as a mermaid and Landon as Nemo.
Perks of having a kid that are technically savvy is that we always have someone to take a picture of us. So here is Jennifer as a mermaid and I am Nemo.
Brinley trying to touch hands with the mermaid. Too bad there was about 2 inches of glass in between them.
Brinley was completely amazed.
Landon waving hello to the mermaid.
The kids seeing how they measure up to Big Mike.
Landon and I taking a selfie with the mermaid.
I am so glad we made that afternoon trip because there wasn't another time that we could have made the trip. The kids loved seeing the mermaids again this year. We always have a good time at the Newport Aquarium and we would highly recommend it if you have never been. Thanks for reading and God bless!
