Aquarium of the Bay San Francisco

A few weeks ago we went to the Aquarium of the Bay
in San Francisco.
If you live close and haven't gone yet, GO.
If you are planning a trip to San Francisco you should, GO.


















First off it's in a great part of the city with tuns of stuff for
adults and kids to do. Kinda tourist though.....


















Right next to Pier 39 and it's famous residents.

























My oldest "barking" back at the sea lions.

Tuns of parking in the parking garage.

























My boys enjoyed the bridge from the garage
to the pier. Looking over at all the busses
and street cars.

Prepare to be bombarded with photos.....


















sardines


















jellyfish

























Love these ones they reming me Fortuny lamps.

















This is one of 3 aquarium tunnels.

























Shark over head....



The rays were awesome. Especially the ones in the touch pools.


At the aquarium they have some small tanks with little domes
in the center. So kids can crawl under and take a peek around.
As if the were in the tank with the fish.

My boys had fun pretending to be sharks.  ;)

Back side of starfish. 


The coolest of all........

the octopus. Apparently he is hard to spot.
We were lucky he put on a little show for us.

The touch pools were super cool. 
I didn't get to many photos of that part.
Water, camera, wet hands not a good combo.
Besides we were having so much fun I kinda forgot.

Touching the sharks and rays was the best part.
I wish I did have photos of that, next time.
