Great Lakes Aquarium

If you happen to be passing through Duluth, MN and the kids are getting antsy (or your husband.) Stop at the Aquarium. We spent about 2 hours their but it could definitely be made into a 45 min stop and than on the road again, although Aidan would argue that it takes at least 4 hours to adequately explore. It is all freshwater fish, and we made it just in time for the otter feeding. Aidan also got to have a front (and only row seat) to the parrot feeding. There were ducks, turtles, and an amazing two-story lake fish tank. Believe me, its worth every cent.

1st of all, that photo of the fishies is fan-tastic. I wish my aquarium photos turned out that well.
2nd, thanks for the tip on Duluth! We may find ourselves there someday, and Aaron & I are big fans of zoos/aquariums.
3rd, I totally adore the photo of you with your little man. I keep thinking of the photo of you, Aaron & Ruth in your swimsuits out at the farm – you are all probably about 4 yrs old, with your little baby tummies. It’s so awesome that you went from that sweet sprite to this gorgeous, confident, talented mommy!
