Day 13 – …it came from the deep

After walking through the old town most of yesterday, we ventured beyond the city walls, to the modern part of Quebec and its aquarium. While it isn’t particularly big (though admittedly we may be a bit spoiled by having been to the Henry Doorley Zoo many times and having seen whale sharks at the Georgia Aquarium), it was still entertaining. The boys challenged themselves on the “arbre-en-arbre” obstacle course.

Balance

Arm strength

Coordination

We also enjoyed the walruses and their participation in their check ups (including spitting water, rolling over, and making their weird barking noises) and getting hands-on at the sting ray touch tank.

Our favorites were definitely the jellyfish – safely behind glass – and the slush puppies (also safely behind glass, well, plastic — though luckily with straws 😉
