The Aquarium

I've been wanting to visit The Living Planet Aquarium in Sandy, so we decided to avoid some of the heat and head to SLC. It was fun to spend some time as a family, but I don't think I would probably visit again. As far as aquariums go in Utah, it was I'm sure, the cream of the crop, but it still left much to be desired! However, Arlington did seem to enjoy herself!





(We only had a phone with us to snap some pictures, so the quality isn't great!)

Arli doing her best "fish" face.

It's hard to tell but this is a picture of an octopus, I was pretty fascinated by it! I've never seen one before, I didn't realize how creepy they look!!!

These little guys and gals are my favorite, unfortunately they only had a few! I think seahorses are so unique and pretty!
Arli loved this tank, there were so many colorful fish and coral! I know it's hard to tell from this fabulous picture, just look close!Arli was trying so hard to be brave and touch the star fish!
Arli again trying to be brave and climb through the cave with her Dad, but she just couldn't do it! Arli seems so fearless about some things, like going head first off a couch or stairs! But when it comes to animals and loud noises( and now it seems dark caves!) she becomes extremely cautious!We decided take a detour to see how the Draper temple was coming along. While we were there we thought we should probably check on our new home! It's not much but it will have to do!
