Atlantic City

For our second weekend in a row we went on a little adventure to explore our new surroundings. This time we headed an hour East to Atlantic City. Lincoln nor I have ever been so it was a completely new experience for the whole family. Our first stop was the aquarium. It was small and pretty run down but I think we made the best of it. After all, we got our picture taken with the pirate! There were a few touch tanks and several smaller enclosed tanks. Evey loved standing at the largest tank watching the sting rays, turtle, and large fish swim back and forth.
We then headed to the boardwalk and walked a portion of it before strolling through The Pier Shops at Caesar's. It was there we watched the water show and ate some grub (unfortunately it wasn't seafood).

We are on the observation deck of the aquarium with Mr. Pirate and Gardner's Basin in the background.

Evey stood there for the longest time. Some of the fish were Ug-ly!

The famous Boardwalk!

Evey's reaction to the water show was great. She was either covering her eyes (because it was loud and kind of scary) or covering her mouth. Lincoln thought it was hilarious.
