Since spring has decided to run and hide, I thought taking Timmy to Discovery World to run off some of his energy might be a good idea. He loves to go and see the fish (or the fishies, as he calls them) and that's always a good time.
Today we watched the fish, found all the turtles (even though he's a little creeped out by the soft shelled turtle), and played in some water. Well, technically he was trying to touch the sting rays but his arms are WAY too short for that. We both touched the sea snail which was pretty interesting. It almost feels like water and you can only tell you are touching it because you can see yourself doing it, if that makes sense. It was pretty neat, regardless. I was a little surprised that Timmy wanted to touch the sea snail because, although he is a boy, sometimes he's a bit of a wuss when it comes to those things. Unfortunately, he wanted to take the sea snail home, but I didn't think that was a good idea. Maybe Uncle Paul can smuggle one of them out for us .
Upstairs there is a new exhibit called the Liquid House (I think...I'm not very good at paying attention to what the exhibit is called, just making sure Timmy doesn't break anything). We've gone in there before and for whatever reason, it seems like they are having a lot of issues with parts of the house breaking. That's not a cut, I think it says more about the people that use the exhibits than anything else. Anyway, there's a wall of water and Timmy saw some older boys putting their hands in it so of course he had to as well. Then he knelt in the water that splashed out and got the knees of his jeans all wet. You can see pictures of him with his hands on the water wall below. At least he had a good time. Right?
