Aquarium visit....

This past Friday since it was so rainy and gross out Josh and I decided that we would go to the aquarium here in Monterey...which by the way is in the book/on the list of the top things to do/see before you die....and since we are members we can go as much as we want. Josh really just wanted to go to get some pictures with the new camera. He is still trying to figure it all out and get to where he knows all the settings and the right things to use at the right time to get the best picture! Here are a few shots from our visit.

This shot is for my brother Justin....when he was here he was obsessed with the otters and this one was just floating on the top of the water sleeping the whole time we were there. This is a salt water otter...it lives in a tank that has water circulated through it from the bay and is actually open to the outside.
This one is a crazy...creepy...scary eel coming out of the rock to attack Josh for taking a picture!

This is some of the beautiful Jellies....one of the most popular exhibits at the aquarium.

a different type of jelly....

One of the sharks in the outer bay exhibit.....

This is one of the fresh water otters at meal time...the one in the water was trying to get his fish...he had already had his own but ate it so fast that he wanted everyones as well.
