Houston Aquarium

In January on Memorial day we got to go to the Aquarium in downtown Houston for Parker's preschool field trip. Daniel didn't have work and Staucie didn't have school so we all got to go. I forgot my camera, of course, so we used our phones. I lost some pictures because Bensen figured out how to delete the pictures on my phone and I haven't gotten the other ones off of Daniel's phone.

Inside the Aquarium. They are sitting in a little wooden boat. My phone does not take good pictures when it is dark. I thought there were some other pictures inside, like ones of Staucie touching a sting ray, but maybe they got deleted or Daniel has them...
Outside we got to ride the train to go see the shark aquarium. It goes in a tunnel and the sharks are swimming above and around us. It is pretty neat.

 Then we went on the ferris wheel thing. It goes so high.


 Addie was scared and so was I. I will ride any roller coaster, but I do not like ferris wheels. This one is a little better because you are sitting inside something, but I still don't like it.
 A view of downtown. Daniel's office building is somewhere in there.
 The view to the east of downtown.
 This was a new ride from the last time we were there. I was excited to go on it. Staucie was too. So we went together first. I know I had more pictures of all of us taking turns on this, but they got deleted. Bensen was sad when Staucie and I went with out him so then Daniel went with him. Look how excited he is and how little he looks. You can see Staucie's boots to the left of the picture. She wanted to ride again. Eventually, we got Parker to try it. They all loved it. It shot us up and dropped us down and then back up and down a few times.
