NC Aquarium @ Fort Fisher

Back in January, we enjoyed a fun Saturday morning at the NC Aqaurium @ Fort Fisher.

It's the perfect size to tour in just a few hours and it wasn't crowded since it's the dead of winter! The have a 2-story conservatory with fish, birds, turtles, snakes and alligators. It's home to an albino aligator - this guy...

And this very friendly guy. Gracyn's not too impressed, huh?

But she loved the fish and called them all 'Bubbles' - that's the Beta fish at school's name.

She wasn't really into touching anything or observing for too long. But we covered the whole place, had zero meltdowns, enjoyed a nice snack outside - with a quick dance session (see below) and made it home for lunch & nap with no tears. Pretty successful, in my opinion!
