Texas State Aquarium

i love this place. specifically, i love peting the sharks and rays. i also get weepy every time i pass the turtles, most of recued creatures who are mangled in some way. this place is worth visiting, worth supporting. a very educatoinal facility.

on the down side, though: the raptor exhibit makes me sad. :(

never the less, go there!

Check out their website for dollar day, otherwise its $14 for adults and $9 for kids 3 – 12, $12 for seniors and $3.50 for parking. The website also has a coupon for $1 off admission.

There’s an interactive exhibit where you can touch stingrays or sharks, and a new Amazon rain forest exhibit opened not too long ago.

Took the family. The kids had a fun time. :)
