Spring Break 2012: Part 2 (much better, in my opinion than Part 1)


After the Great Wolf Lodge we headed down to Cincinnati to visit the Natural History Museum.  I had never been -- it was very impressive and will be going back to see more of it!



Checking out fossils



Cockroaches!



A little down time for Aves

We also visited the Aquarium.  Here, Sophia and I patiently wait for our Penguin Encounter, where we got to go in and meet a few friendly penguins.



Getting our photo with Green Bean


Spider Crabs - super cool

At another penguin exhibit.  Brrrrr!  It was freezing in there!


Seeing a million cuties


Moon jellies.  My favorite exhibit was the jellyfish.

The exhibit was so serene.  Each kind of jellyfish tank was 'framed' as if a piece of art.  Plush velvet couches and chairs were throughout in order to stop and enjoy their gracefulness.




This leopard ray was pretty cool, too.  We were able to watch the shark feeding while we were there.
