Fish, Rowdy Kids and More Rowdy Kids

It was 50 and partly cloudy this morning. The day ended up cloudy with a high of 77.

Around 0900 we headed for Tampa and we got to The Florida Aquarium a little after 1000.

You start out in the wetlands area.  The first thing we saw was a couple of alligators.  Note, most of the pictures were taken through glass.

Next we headed to the animal training demonstration.

While the demonstration was going on, it sounded like we were being invaded by a herd of stampeding elephants making the noise of a group of hyenas.  It turns out we were invaded by most of the first graders and preshoolers in Tampa. Actually it was several bus loads of kids who where allowed to do whatever they wanted and at the loudest voice they could muster.  The chaperons just ignored everything they did.  They were around us all through the place.

Here are some more pictures from the aquarium.

On the way home we stopped at Cafe Masaryktown for Cuban sandwiches.

Back at the campground we took BJ for his walk and then went over to wish Phil & Cindy safe and healthy travels.  They will be heading to the Plantation in Alabama tomorrow.

Catch ya later

Thought For The Day – Ranting doesn’t really help as much as it should
