Wednesday afternoon, Jason and I took Ella out to lunch without Holly for some alone-time with us. We planned to go on a speedboat tour afterwards hoping to see some dolphins, but due to the chilly weather, it was cancelled. Instead we took her to St. Petersburg to the aquarium on the pier. Quite a few pelicans hanging around on the pier, I fed them on our way out. Almost got attacked by a seagull - check it out.
The aquarium was small, but that didn't matter to Ella. She kept going back to the same tanks, but since she saw different fish in them each time, she must've thought the place was enormous!
Look Mommy! It's Nemo! The second picture is a tank of baby seahorses, you can't really see them in the pic. They look like seamonkeys. They're only 1cm big.
They had a see and touch tank for kids. Ella suprised me with how many disgusting things she was willing to touch. Is this the same girl who plugged her nose the entire time at the pumpkin farm?
This eel scared her every time she walked by it. He is pretty creepy. Even some of the staff didn't like walking by his tank.

When we got back we gave both girls a bath. Holly played with the naked baby again. The "other" baby is a lot bigger than last year. :o)
OMG, I need a vacation! :) Looks like you guys had a blast!
