OBX Aquarium

We took a break from beaching, to head to the aquarium over in Manteo. It's just small enough that we can cover it in a short afternoon, and there is interesting sea life for the girls to observe.

There was an interactive room where the girls got to touch starfish, sea urchins, sting rays, and hermit crabs. Alexa really liked this one!



Outside, they had a digging pit where kids could dig for shark teeth fossils. Emma carefully combed through many handfuls of dirt and claims to have found 3 shark teeth! She was very proud of herself...

How about a true belly shot of Fran, please? The last picture gives us a hint of the little growing girl, but the public demands a profile shot please.
