We went to the aquarium in Albuquerque a couple days ago. Although Maggie was a little more interested in shooing me through the maze of exhibits (as though the point of the visit was to navigate the dusky hallways) than to gawp at the bright and huge and bizarre fishies, she had a great time. We got to watch a man feed dead fish to a tank of rays and puffers; pet a sting ray once I held Maggie's hand and touched it with her; jump up and off an oversized starfish; climb up a pier and look for dry land. Her favorite things were predictably all the activities that were exactly that: active. Then Nana and Baba met us for lunch at the restaurant where we watched sharks and giant sea turtles swim around and burrow under rocks.
She looks soooo grown up standing up there doesn't she?
