I love aquariums. The darkness and the water. The amazing and unusual creatures. The calm and the excitement of it. The colors are so vivid. I could sit in an aquarium for hours. However, children don't sit anywhere for hours. For them, the most exciting thing in the whole place lies in the next tank. Luckily we had enough slow walking adults to balance out the running kids so that we kept a somewhat leisurely pace and all was seen and enjoyed.
("Yes, yes the jelly fish are cool, but seriously check out my shoes!")
So maybe fast paced excitement is for older children. I guess we all enjoyed the aquarium in our own special way.
Such fun times!
