The "Nordstrom" of Aquariums!











By far one of the best experiences of my life was visiting the Monterey Bay Aquarium! It was the "Nordstrom" or "Disneyland" of all the aquariums I've seen yet!!

What made the day extra memorable??

Instead of driving, we walked to the MBA. It took us about 45 mins., but it was great to get some exercise and enjoy the sights of Monterey.

Liam and I had SUCH AN AWESOME time feeding the bat rays. I will NEVER forget it. They were especially friendly and just loved to be touched.

The jellyfish on display were RADICAL! This is always my favorite part of an aquarium, and I just stood mystified at the many tanks of jellies there were to enjoy.

At the end of our day (7 hours to be exact), both boys were so happy and couldn't stop talking about all they had seen and experienced.

It was such a GREAT, GREAT day!!

PS- If you are thinking about visiting Monterey, I would def. try and take advantage of a two day pass to MBA. Many of the hotels have a twofer pass, and it's worth it.
