Taken at the Denver Aquarium - more to come. I like how the fossil appears to be chasing the fish...

Scenic Sunday - Seattle Aquarium

Down near the waterfront Seattle has a good aquarium. First I'll show a scenic view from the aquarium, for the Scenic Sunday meme.

We saw divers through the glass, talking to a group of schoolchildren.

There was a pool in which people could touch starfish and other saltwater creatures.

The highlight was the undersea dome, through which all kinds of creatures could be viewed.

From this dome it was possible to look up at the surface of the water.

And finally, I think this is a seal of some kind.

This aquarium makes for a very fun day out, especially with children.

DC - National Aquarium

One morning we spent a few minutes at the National Aquarium, just off the National Mall. This isn't to be confused with the much better aquarium in Baltimore - the one in DC is small, and is one of the few attractions near the Mall to charge money. Considering the quality of all the other attractions, we thought it was a disappointment. But nevertheless, here are a few pictures.

A crocodile (or alligator, I don't remember which).

A couple of fish.

And a turtle.
