Here Fishy, Fishy, Fishy

We arrived at the Oklahoma Aquarium in Jenks around 2:30 or so on Saturday afternoon.


G3 and G4 looked over some aquarium information with AD.


I could have watched these incredible jelly fish all day long.



Honestly, I didn't read too many of the signs that were around telling about the various water creatures. So I have no idea what the name of these little guys are but they were totally creepy.

This fish totally grabbed my attention. Just incredible!


There were lots of "Nemos" around. This one was the biggest one we saw.


There's a sort of tunnel that everyone walks through. The sharks swim on either side and over the top of you giving everyone a pretty up close and personal encounter with them.


These white fuzz balls reminded me of cotton.



This guy was huge - well, I've never seen a snail (that's what it is, right?) this big!


Look at this albino turtle. So cool!



I don't know how many clicks of the camera it took to get this shot. Beavers swim really, really fast and turn on a dime. Try as I might, I never did get a good shot of the otters. Maybe next time.



These little creatures all moved around with what appeared to be their tongues hanging out.


These shimmering colored fish were called Downlookers or something like that. It's easy to see why.




These last little creatures looked like they'd been shocked with electricity.

We definitely want to visit this incredible Oklahoma attraction again sometime.
