Sometimes when Charles leaves town for trips to the West coast, Madeline and I pack to go visit the Grandmoore's. This time we took a trip with Grandmum to the Adventure Aquarium in Camden, New Jersey. This is a photo of Philadelphia from outside the aquarium.
We were all wowed by the wonders of the underwater world.
I wonder if these fish were on their way to "school". Do you think their parents ever say to them, "When I was your age, I had to swim uphill both ways to get to school"?
This little guy's tuxedo was too tight because he sure was waddling. This African penguin inspired our next activity which was....
...face painting, of course. If only Madeline would hold this still while I did her hair.
Surfer girls!
Jaws! Yikes! We're gonna need a bigger boat!
A few years ago I went to a conference where I heard a scientist say that we know more about outer space than we do the ocean. He said that the species in the ocean change about every 250 miles. So, there is a lot more to discover!
Just maybe a curious child will grow up to discover more of those things.

What did Maddie like the most the penguins or the fish?
Isn't it funny that the penguins came from Africa, because that definitely isn't what I think of when I think about penguins!
I miss that Madi. And so does Sam! xoxo
