Tide pools in the Aquarium

Its the first full weekend of the month, that means free admission for Bank Of America cardholders to selected museums....why wouldn't you take advantage of that.  We headed over to Birch Aquarium in La Jolla, CA.  This was my first time going to La Jolla.  Talk about saving the best for last...not the aquarium but the beach, the views, breathtaking!


As soon as you walk in to the aquarium they have a balcony overlooking La Jolla beach. I could sit there for hours. So pretty. There were so many surfers in the water by the pier and I believe a surfing class.  Surfers trying to catch some waves. Alot of patience required.

The kids had a good time. Umair was fascinated by the whole aquarium. His favorite part was the tide pool. Both Haseeb and Umair got to touch sea cucumbers, seastars, sea anemone, snails, and other sea animals that live in the San Diego tide pools.

Umair's expression while seeing the sea cucumber is priceless

We walked through the hall of fishes and ended at the shark tank.
