A few days ago I talked about visiting our local 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.

What a fascinating place to visit. I had to scroll slow so I could see all the photos. Some of these are really amazing. Those colorful fish are beautiful. Love the pictures of you and your husband in the diving suit. Too fun. I look forward to seeing more.
I'll have to put this aquarium on my to do list for the summer when we get back to Pennsylvania, We are only an hour to Point Pleasant. The photos are fabulous and sounds like a nice day out. 36 degrees ?? we were 38 last week here in Miami..
