The Aquarium
Today we went to the National Aquarium in Baltimore. It is a really fun place to look around in and I had a really nice time there today. I enjoy all the different kind of fish and the dolphin show. The dolphin show is one of my favorite parts of the aquarium. I always like to sit in the splash zone. Another one of my favorite parts is where you go down the ramp and you can look at fish behind the glass and there is music playing. There are fish there of all different colors, blue, yellow, purple and orange. I think the brightly colored fish are very beauiful, especially the purple ones. Today we also saw an octopus up close behind one of the windows and three starfish suction cupped to the glass. The octopus kept touching the starfish with its tentacles, which I thought was really interesting, like it was trying to be friendly with the starfish. I think it is the first time I've ever seen an octopos there that close before. Here are some pictures that were taken.

I'm glad you had a good time. I've never been to the aquarium before. It looks like a lot of fun.
either that octopus was in fact trying to be friendly with the starfish, it was trying to eat them, or it just has way too much free time on it's tentacles!
