Fort Fisher Aquarium

The kids and I took a road trip to visit the aquarium outside of Wilmington, and met Gramps and Grammy there. It was just over 2 hours for us to drive there, and about an hour and a half for them...so a great place to meet up and spend the day together. Unfortunately it was raining at the beach, so that meant everyone on vacation had to be inside, which meant the aquarium was PACKED. Next time we'll pick a nice sunny day to go there! :) Even though it was crowded, we still had a great time. There were a lot of fish to see (of course both kids got excited about "Nemo"), and they really liked the moray eel (so much so, that Liam had to take one home with him...photo below, which is how he fell asleep with it on the ride home!). After the aquarium, lunch and a short walk around the beach area, we headed home. It was a long day, but a lot of fun!
