Virginia Aquarium & Marine Science Center

Hello Everyone,
   I checked off a new year's resolution already; My husband and I visited the Aquarium in Virginia Beach. First of all, let me say, this aquarium was super impressive! I highly recommend going if you get the chance. They had an indoor touch pool filled with rays from the local bay areas, a sea turtle only tank(that I spent way too much time looking at), a huge shark tank, and crocodiles?!



   The sea turtle tank was by far my favorite exhibit, the turtles swim right up to the glass and I swear they were playing with us; Just around the corner they had baby sea turtles!


   The whale room was really cool, there's a machine that lets you hear the different communication sounds from a large variety of whales (I also spent too much time listening to it).



   Something I didn't expect to see was a freakin' Komodo dragon! And I was left speechless again when we found the Tomistoma crocodiles, they had a special swamp room made just for them.

Visiting the Virginia Living Museum



Hi Everyone!

   Today, the weather was nice and sunny, so my husband and myself went to the Virginia Living Museum. It's been on our list of places to visit ever since spring arrived. We bought the membership so we'll definantly be going back! 

They just added Dinosaurs to the museum :)

Most of the museum is an outdoor trail!
   There are lots of animals to view on the trail: foxes, beavers, wolfs, racoons, bobcats, deer, and many birds. We got to view them really up close! Closer than most zoos. And the animal enclosures were very spacious and beautifully landscaped.
