Aquarium
February 2007
Mike and Jeri and I took another of our field trips, this time to the Downtown Aquarium in Denver.

The Aquarium from the outside |
You can pan for gold -- because Colorado is obsessed with historical mines. :P Even in an aquarium, apparently...
|
An ancient diving suit and cage on display. | A shot of the gift shop. |
Some of the cute plushies for sale in the gift shop. |
Gorgeous setup in one of the hallways.
|
A big fake gorilla display... it looks incredibly real up close! | The Aquarium is funded by the income from its restaurant... a really good seafood restaurant. It's expensive but definitely worth it.

Mike outside on the shark bench. |
Jeri hiding from the shark. >D
|
I gave the shark some luv. |
Me 'n the shark are buddies. :P
|
Umm... Mike? You okay over there? |

They have a tiger at the aquarium. |
Not sure what he has to do with sea life, but he's beautiful.
|
It was very difficult to take these pictures, he was hiding wayyyy up high. |
But before we left he came down and pranced around a little for us. :)
|
Divers can practice in the aquarium tanks. |
This looks like SO MUCH FUN. I'd love to try it someday.
