Time with Grandma and cousin Elizabeth

After Westport we joined my side of the family in Rhode Island. I guess I didn't take my camera out for most of it. Too much relaxing? Here are some from a visit to Mystic Marine Life Aquarium. Our first stop was the sting ray petting tank. This is all Kieran wanted to do for the rest of the day but we managed to check out some other exhibits before returning to the rays on the way out. His cousin Elizabeth gave him a stuffed sting ray that day..."sting ray" has been a favorite companion ever since.

Wow! I'd forgotten how impressive the displays are there. Who doesn't love to see a whale from underwater?

These baby turtles looked like they needed a hug.

In the fish nook.

And in the bird house. Everyone loved feeding the little birds.

A penguin! What's a penguin doing here?!? It was lots of fun at the aquarium and with Grandma and Elizabeth and the rest of the cousins and aunts and uncles. I wish I had taken some pictures at the house...I'm lucky I have these!
