EASTER SUNDAY

It was such a beautiful day today that we decided to take some photos after church outside of the Apartments where the first of the Tulips had blossomed, so here they are.

THE LIVING PLANET AQUARIUM

Last Monday we went to the Aquarium in Sandy for Family Home Evening. It was pretty cheap but i didn't think it was as good as the Manly Aquarium or the one on the Sunshine Coast. There was lots of cool fish though. Pirahnas and an Anaconda from South America including some huge hairy tarantulas (Don't ask me what they are doing in an Aquarium?!). They also had some stingrays in a pool that you could reach over and touch on its wings. I couldn't help but think of Steve Irwin and think "this thing killed him and here they are for all to touch without any supervision or precautions prohibiting kids jumping in there". i don't know they were pretty placid just laying there. The kids had lots of fun and we enjoyed it also.
Tyla Jade saw this clown fish and screamed out "Nemo!!" Never too far from an Aussie's heart!
Hayden and mum touching the stingrays!!

Hiding out in caverns and posing for pictures. These kids love to pose!
