aquarium

We drove to Monterey, CA on Friday night for a fun little get away. On Saturday we made our way to the Monterey Aquarium as the doors were opening to the public. This is a such a great place! I could have spent hours here.

In the photo above, Wes is watching the fish swim in a circular motion. The tank was over head and encompassed the entire room.
Onto the jellyfish. Strangely enough, this was my favorite part of the aquarium (and I took way too many pictures). I love how beautiful they are in the blue light. I was so mesmorized as I watched them move around the tank. It looked like a choregraphed movement of effortlessness. Spectacular! Holy Mackerel! Yup, I'm sure the aquarium staff hasn't heard that pun before. Me and the countless Mackerel fishies.The fun job of cleaning the tanks.
I love all the colors.

Gorgeous plant life. I wish I could have this above water...in my front yard.
