Oh The Places We'll Go--Part 2

Our next adventure led us to New Orleans. I was DYING to take Ella Kate to the aquarium and this was a perfect opportunity to do it. I LOVED going as a child and I knew she would love it as well. I was right!!!!!

Ella Kate loved the huge turtle in the shark tank more than anything else in there. We had to move to several different windows just to get a better view of the thing!


EK even got to pet the sting rays. She giggled and got so tickled because literally every sting ray in the whole tank swam over to her when she stepped up to the tank. They loved her and she loved her "friends" as she called them. She kept saying "Where's my friend? Oh, there's my friend" over and over again.



After the aquarium, the little monkey was so pooped that she fell asleep and missed these...
Before leaving New Orleans, we knew that EK would not want to miss seeing the street cars. We wandered around the mall for a bit while she slept and then as soon as she woke up, we went to check out the street cars. She LOVED watching them!

We had a FABULOUS day in the city!!!!!
