One of the things we did when we were in Connecticut in May was visit the Mystic Aquarium. While there, we purchased an annual pass, which we put to good use this weekend with another visit to Mystic. We saw sea lions, penguins, and jelly fish; took a walk through a marsh, watch a sea lion show, touched sharks and sting rays, and feed birds of the outback. It was a full day – some of which I captured on film.
Anna greatly enjoyed feeding the Birds of the Outback, as long as the birds remained on the popsicle stick and didn’t get on her hands or arms. She was also fascinated by the jelly fish, which are part of the new exhibit at the aquarium. But her favorite part was the sea lion show.
This will probably be a monthly trek for us, since the aquarium is about 50 minutes from our house. It is a quick drive down. Next time we might leave time in our schedule to make it to the Mystic Seaport.
