Denver Aquarium

We took a family trip up to the aquarium in Denver, we had never been there before, but I have to say, it was totally worth it and the kids both loved it!  The Downtown Aquarium was formerly called 'Ocean Journey' and as you walk through the exhibits, it shows the different stages of the journey of water and life from the Rocky Mountains to the ocean (kinda... if I hadn't read that description before we left, I would not have been able to put it together on my own).  It didn't really matter anyway, it was fun to see different types of water habitats and lots of different types of fish and animals.

Dori!
and Nemo!
yikes!  a scuba diver!
We could stay here forever and just watch everything


Afterwards, we took a walk over to 16th St. for some dinner...
and Pinkberry!  My new obsession, and I do mean obsession!
and a little walk
and a little ride.
