North Carolina Aquarium at Fort Fisher and Southport Ferry

What a cute place to spend a rainy afternoon.  It's small, but the tanks are amazing.  I especially loved the sea horses and jelly fish.  The staff was interactive and nice.  I'd definitely recommend a trip there with the family.


Checking out the box turtle.  I know they say turtles are slow, but that thing really motored!

Serious scientific inquiry into alligator feeding

Huge hermit crab?



Starfish.  He even knows the sign!



Of course when I take the pic there are no fish actually swimming behind them.  Doh



These lucky employees were cleaning the reef with toothbrushes.  The aquarium glass really makes your butt look big

He loves frogs



Yes, he climbed all the way to the top.


Then on the way back from the aquarium we took the Southport Ferry.  We had to wait 30 minutes in the car to catch it, but the boys had fun.

Driving onto the ferry.  Nice beach weather, huh?



So he wears his pajama bottoms as pants.  So what?  Who are you, the pajama police??

Family shot.  Thank you, kind Ferry Passenger
