Aquarium

I took the kids to the Clearwater Marine Aquarium last week. I wish I had been warned that it is mostly an outdoor thing since it was a steamy 94degrees outside but never-the-less Kadence had a great time. She had been begging me to take her there to see "Winter" the dolphin who lost her tail in a crab trap when she was a baby. The picture of the little stub sticking out of the water is her sticking her tail up. She was training for a major motion picture based on her story the day we were there. Kadence especially loved touching the sting rays and telling everyone all about them. She was like a walking information booth, people were cracking up at her. We also saw them doing surgery on an endangered turtle that swallowed an enormous fish hook. That was pretty awesome. They showed us the hook after it was removed and we watched as they monitored the turtle and waited for it to wake up from anesthesia. Kadence wants to be a marine biologist when she grows up and I think she would be great at it. Her new favorite show on tv is Expedition Great White, not your typical 4 year old.
