Our Last day in Seattle! March 20, 2010

Our last day in Seattle was a very busy one! We first went to the Seattle Aquarium. This was the first time our kids had ever been to an aquarium. Their eyes got huge when they got to touch the Starfish.My three fish sitting in front of one of the many tanks!
Trenton and Garrett could not believe they got to touch a starfish.
Aunt Candice was trying to get Abby to touch one, but Abby was just fine looking at them!
This was so cool! My kids are sitting under a tunnel of Jellyfish. The tank kept changing colors.
Here's Abby when it changed to pink.
Garrett enjoyed having the hands on experience.

How do you measure up to a six gill shark?

This tank was Abby's favorite! It had fish that looked like Nemo and Dory.
We got to see the divers feed the fish. It was very cool!
Trenton and Garrett had a front row view.
Awe, how cute!
Cute, but not as cute as the boy's!
We got to see the otter's get fed.
Okay, adventure #2 for the day. Aunt Candice treated us to a fun ride on the Ducks of Seattle tour. It was so much fun! Our tour guide was hilarious! Read below to find out about them.


Here's our captain in one of the many hat's he wore on the tour.
Aunt Candice, Trenton, Chris and Garrett sat on the other side from where Abby and I were.
Abby didn't last too long. Our tour came to a halt when a Train decided to park on the tracks for at least 30Min's. Our Captain made the best of the situation and turned up the music real loud and had everyone participate in singing and doing actions to the songs. We had many looks from bystanders. Finally we got moving again.
This was another Ducks boat that we passed in the water. My boy's thought it was sooo cool when we went from land to water!
They were even more excited when we saw a police boat on the water!
This was a beautiful view of the Space Needle. After we learned all kinds of neat things about Lake Union and all the cool things surrounding it, it was time to get back on land.
The final adventure for the day was the Pacific Science Center. The first area we went to was all about Space. Garrett and Abby sure had fun trying to see what their strength would be in they were really in space.

We moved onto the water area. My kids truly are fish! They love water!
Trenton spent most of his time playing with the hermit crabs. He loved them!
The Space Needle is right outside of the Pacific Science Center.
Aunt Candice took one final picture of our family in Seattle.
After a long fun day we all got in our jammie's and vegged! Trenton and Garrett loved Aunt Candice's big screen TV.
Abby was attached to Aunt Candice. We all had a wonderful time!
Thanks Aunt Candice for making our trip extra special!
I forgot to mention that it was mine and Chris's 11 year anniversary. What better way to celebrate than be with our family!
