Stay-cation

I have booked our social calendar this week.  I'll call it our stay-cation :)  Today's activities - a hearty breakfast at Ikea followed by a trip to the SeaLife Aquarium at the Mall of America.



Here we are at the Interactive Rockpool, where we got to touch the live starfish.  These were the instructions - "you can touch anything in here with 1 or 2 fingers" and apparently Henry heard "grab a huge handful of sand, it feels really cool!"  No, he really was gentle when touching the starfish. 

Here, it was like walking through a tunnel - this part of the aquarium was, by far, the coolest!  Henry and Dad are checking out the ferocious Sand Tiger Shark!



Henry's favorite part of the day (besides a ginormous portion of eggs at breakfast) was looking at the Seahorses, but I couldn't get any pictures because you weren't allowed to take flash photography around them :(
