New Orleans Aquarium

Here are the pics. from our visit to the New Orleans Aquarium when we went down to Mississippi for a family reunion/vacation. We visited the aquarium after we had went to the zoo. We all had a blast and I would highly recommend it.

Look! Look! Eels.
The Rain Forest exhibit was really 'cool'.

Her mind was spinnin'


"Mom, your slowing me down"



Down from the 'canopy'




Lots of different kinds of fish





Standing guard


My terrified daughters standing in the jaws of a make believe shark


The frog section was really neat




Jessie was getting tired by this point.



Riding a Killer whale.


The blow hole would really blow air out-she was waiting.


Cutie!

My little pearls!!!



This picture wasn't this way when I first put it on but for some reason it turned; anyhow, this was one of many kinds of fish in the biggest exhibit there.



Yep-they had a few sharks. Jessie was glue to us through the entire time we were here because she was sure we would eventually see sharks and she is just not convinced that they are not going to get her somehow.


After a 3hr drive to New Orleans, 4hrs at the zoo and 2hrs at the aquarium........they were exhausted!! This was before we ever got out of New Orleans and they slept a long time. the highlights of the aquarium was that we got to pet a sting ray and a nurse shark-very cool!!
