:: Day 8 ::

Train to Dallas Aquarium

 This was all of our first time on the train to Dallas.
It was so fun and stress free to all be able to just chat, and eat snacks, and relax on our 40 minutes ride to downtown Dallas. The price was $5.00 one way for adults and kids age 3 and under are free.

 THE BOYS walking in the big city, on our way to the Dallas Aquarium.

 Again, we fought the Spring Break crowd. I thought was going to be WAY longer to actually get inside, because the line was wrapped around the whole outside of the building. But it wasn't too bad - other than the horrid sewer stench that we smelt while waiting on the corner. :)
This was a sweet fish tank on the building by the street.

 Trying to be patient to get inside.
{I believe Cohen is winding up to whack Kai, stinker.}

 This man was one amazing Sax player. Just playing on the corner of the aquarium, smart man. People were throwing bills at him like crazy, including Cohen. He thought that was pretty cool to be able to give him money.

 For even more entertainment, there was a group of these crazy indian-looking people walking around to take pictures with.

The aquarium was great! SO PACKED like I said, but great. A little pricey {$20 per adult, 3 & under free} but worth it.

 The jaguar was my favorite part of the day.
He was in a HUGE glass cage and we saw him grab a live fish out of a little stream and eat it right up. Sweet!
Then he walked over to his big salt block to have a few licks.

The shark tank was also very neat.
It was a tunnel tank, so there were sharks and turtles and fish all around you. 

 Definitely tired by the end of 3 hours through the aquarium.

 Waiting for the train...

 Successful day.
Thank you, Dallas. 
You treated us well.
