Dreaming of Heat.

I can't wait to get outside without winter boots and heavy clothes.

The Monterey Bay Aquarium

This was the most beautiful aquarium I've been to so far. 

Every area and space had purpose and was beautiful to look at and interact with.

And there was such a huge focus on conservation, which made me so happy.

The "How Not To Be Seen" game for FISH!!

LOOK!!! AN OTTER!!!

This section of the aquarium had a board for kids to write messages. I was so happy when I saw them. 

Kids are so amazing, aren't they?

"Fishing practices worldwide are damaging our oceans—depleting fish populations, destroying habitats and polluting the water. Informed consumers can help turn the tide."
