Trip to the Aquarium
March 2004

Ashley, Benny, and Andy pose for a picture. I think
Benny might have been demonstrating his tickle spiders.

Children being devoured by a shark and enjoying it.
People looking on calmly and photographing the situation.
What is it, Crazyday? And again with the tickle spiders.

Benny demonstrates how the shark can hear his prey
approaching.
He found it EXTREMELY entertaining to get the sharp to "gulp"
down the little fish when it got close.

Here he is being entertained by the gulp.

Patting a horseshoe crab.

Taking a ride on "Big Old Dad."
Dad took exception when he realized that small pieces
of his hair and scalp were being meditatively yanked out
by his passenger.

Riding a dolphin sculpture. Behind Benny is a
window on the salt marsh.

You can control the cameras in this "submersible"
which is embedded in the shark tank. In the window
on the top of this room, a nurse shark was taking a nap.

Sadie didn't want to go in the stroller much.

She was much happier in the sling.

"Look, little Danny. See the big fishies? Good job!" Hehehe.

RUN LITTLE BOY! GIANT SEA TURTLE BEHIND
18 INCHES OF PLEXIGLASS RIGHT BEHIND YOU!

Not all parents suffer equally.
Can you find the suffering parent in this picture?

Benny and Mama.

Ashley, Daddy, Benny, and Andy patting rays
in the ray tank. Benny patted quite a few.

Here's Benny's reflection in he shark tank
with a tiger shark approaching.

Then we threw him in.
