by the sea in Seaside

Seaside’s dark and kitschy Aquarium never fails to please. P8030045 From feeding the clapping seals to the tired anemones in the touch tank, it’s small and friendly and accessible.  Kids love it. So do I.

 
P8030046

yep, just “like a walk on the ocean floor”

WiP4020060nd and rain drove #1 son and me, and a few hundred thousand others, to the vancouver aquarium today. Pacific white sided dolphins and a giant pacific octopus (Enteroctopus dofleini) were among the highlights.

This bullfrog (Rana catesbeiana) represents an invasive
species that is displacing local frogs throughout southern BC.
