Memorial Day at the Aquarium

For Memorial Day Robert and I decided to check out the newish aquarium in Draper.  It was more diverse than your regular aquarium with different animals from different habitats.  I would recommend a visit to the aquarium.  Just don't go on a holiday haha.  It was preeetty packed.
Ignore the water spots on the glass haha.
The penguins... they kept moving and this was the best shot I could get haha.
A giant anaconda!  We went back to this exhibit 2 hours later because Robert wanted to get a picture of a giant fish, and the snake was in the exact same position.
A cuddle fish.  So weird.
I touched one.  So gross.

The jellyfish changed colors when the lights changed colors.  Way cool!


I also had the hardest time getting pictures of the sharks...
Robert and I also checked out the 4D shark film (it was in 3D, but with the added effects of water spraying on your face and wind blowing at your face and feet).  The film pretty much said the great white shark is misunderstood and that we need to save them from extinction.  Yeah... didn't buy it.

Random Facts #4

With the request of my sister, Tanaya, I am doing another random facts post.  Also because 1) it's been a while since I've done it, and 2) I am bored.
  • I have 10 weeks left of pregnancy!  Almost down to single digits people.
  • A housefly will regurgitate its food and eat it again.  That's how I like to eat my food too.  Not.
  • Salt Lake City has a law against carrying an unwrapped ukelele on the street.
  • The Guinness Book of Records holds the record for being the book most often stolen from libraries.
  • Giraffes and rats can last longer without water than camels.
 Funny picture of the day:

California

This past week we went on a trip to California with Robert's family.  It was a nice getaway before his brother starts grad school and before I have the baby.
Sea lions just tanning at La Jolla
The beautiful shores of La Jolla
We went to quite a few beaches.  Too bad the water was always freezing cold.  We also went to the Mormon Battalion.
And we went to the San Diego temple.  It's super pretty!
A week of not having a care in the world, and now I'm back to work and school :(  It's okay.  Just a couple of months left for both and I'll be a mommy :)
