After lunch we realized the next train wouldn't be heading home for a few hours, which gave us the perfect opportunity to visit the Dallas World Aquarium. The name is a bit misleading; while there are aquatic creatures to be seen, there are many more land mammals, birds, etc. on display. Here is just a sampling of critters we saw:
 |
| Spoonbill stork |
 |
| Anteater |
 |
| Homo sapiens sophomore and senior |
 |
| Inhabitant of Monkey Island |
 |
| Marmoset (maybe?) |
 |
| No need for the sign. We are NOT touching the sloth! |
 |
| View from the women's restroom |
 |
| Suddenly hungry for Froot Loops |
 |
| Otter |
 |
| "Bow-chicka-wow-wow!" |
 |
| See the monkeys? |
 |
| THERE they are! |
 |
| Gator |
 |
| Bats |
 |
| Another bat |
 |
| Frog |
 |
| Stingray or placemat? |
 |
| Another sloth |
 |
| "Tanks" for the memories |
It was an amazing place, and it was wonderful to get to share this new experience with Nana and the kids.
