Aquarium and smores

A few miles away from our house is the downtown Houston aquarium. It is overpriced and under-fished, but we finally made a trip there with our good friends the Nuttalls.

Wheeler is a lover of all animals, and unfortunately has not yet learned a healthy fear/ respect for grabbing or kissing anything with fur or fins. Here he is going to town trying to grab the sting rays and baby sharks in the petting tank. 

Olivia was not so eager. Neither was I.

But I did quite like the white tigers! My guess is as good as yours as to why there are tigers at an Aquarium...  but they were neat to see up so close. 

Back at our place for hotdogs and smores. Props to the men who dusted off their scouting skills and only took 20 minutes and 3 failed attempts to get the fire going. :)
