Saturday Critters #635

A few days ago I talked about visiting our local aquarium,

Jenkinson Aquarium 

We went on Thursday and had a great time.

Located on the Point Pleasant Beach Boardwalk, in Point Pleasant, it is just a short drive from home.

It was a beautiful winter day, a "balmy" 36 degrees, with blue skies and sunshine.

It felt great to be out, camera in hand.

The aquarium has been renovated and updated since the last time we were there.

It was clean, colorful and well staffed with very knowledgeable people.

Most of the animals and fish here have been rescued and are not capable of returning to the wild.

I took way too many pictures but I could not help myself...scroll quickly and you may enjoy them more.

This is the scene as you first enter the aquarium.

This is a Map Turtle and it appears to be missing a limb.

The array of colors in the fish tanks were really amazing.

- stingrays -

- sharks -

- we had fun posing with this -

This is a look at the displays downstairs,

 I will be sharing more on Monday if you would like to avoid stopping by, but maybe you enjoyed this.

Making Fun In The Kitchen ~ Part 2 ~

I did not plan on having a Part 2 when I posted yesterday, but this is the 

most exciting thing I have to share.

I made Tacos on Taco Tuesday and we had a lot left over.

We love tacos but instead of recreating the same thing, I decided to try something I had seen on Instagram.

I saved the video, watched it here, this was super simple and another fun idea.

 

You have to slice the tortilla, in half but only half way down.

If you want to make this and don't understand my description, you can watch the short video.

You make 3 folds.

I served these with rice, they were really good and like I said, fun and easy!
