The other National Aquarium

Not a lot of people know this but there is another National Aquarium...below the U.S. Commerce Building.  It's been there for decades but it's not nearly as nice, big (or above ground) as the National Aquarium in Baltimore.  Patti took the kids there with her Mom and Dad a few weeks ago.

Before going to the Aquarium, everyone collected Daddy at work and went out for lunch.

Will is going to be a Volunteer....


Our awesome waitress at Nooshi made child-friendly chopsticks for all three kids.  The girls used theirs like forks, but Will really did OK with his.



The girls slept through the place for a while and then when they woke up Patti went back through it again.  They LOVED the Aquarium.  They watched the afternoon piranha feeding, they oohed and aahed a lot (Maggie had lots of wows), and they liked the alligators.
