Aquarium outing

Trey's school hosted a fundraising outing at the Houston Aquarium over the weekend, and Trey and I stopped by for a couple hours. Trey had so much fun looking at all the fish. They were all "goldfish" to him; and when we would get to the next exhibit, he would exclaim, "more goldfish!" He loved it. The last interior exhibit housed a couple tigers, but unfortunately they were asleep for our visit.
Trey also enjoyed riding a train through the shark tank (I think he enjoyed the train more than the sharks we saw along the journey), and riding the carousel, where he insisted on sitting on the alligator.

Overall, I thought the Aquarium was grossly overpriced and over-hyped, but Trey seemed to enjoy it, which is what matters. I think we will try to take him to a "real" aquarium sometime later this year.
