Kelly Tarlton's Aqarium

We had an amazing time at Kelly Tarlton's with Auntie Lucy and Regan  - Tiggy got to see her first real penguins, sharks, turtles and many other underwater creatures.   I think being able to watch the fish in the tanks that were at her level were a favourite part of the day for her.  There was lots of fun to be had climbing inside a shark's mouth and on top of a sea turtle with Regan's help.

She also seemed inspired by the lights and music in the seahorse exhibit where she broke out into a little freestyle twirling and dancing.  I really wish i had video taped it...

Thanks again to Lucy and Regan for taking us there for the day and to Sean for the great idea!
