Sharks and Turtles and Sting Rays, Oh My!

 Our second day in Virginia Beach was spent at the VA Marine Museum.  Cammy treats us to a membership every year, which was a godsend on Tuesday because the "Members Only" line was 5 people deep while the regular admission line was through the door, down the walkway, and around the seal tank.  I'm guessing those people waited at least 2 hours just to walk in the front doors!  We tried to stay ahead of the tourists and summer camp groups, and the kids were real troopers about the crowds and mass of double strollers that we had to dodge.

Why this dolphin no go anywhere?!

Sharks and turtles....it doesn't get any better than this!

Up close and personal

This turtle followed Emmy's hand along the tank

All that water at the aquarium made the kids excited for the beach!  Cammy even broke out the new beach bag that we got her for Christmas!
