Oregon Aquarium


We went to both the Oregon Aquarium and the Undersea Gardens. The Aquarium was AMAZING! The Undersea Gardens (similar to the one in Victoria) was super disappointing and super expensive.

Joel liked the touch tank at the Undersea Gardens, mostly for the water, not for the fish.

At the Aquarium, there was an underwater walkway where you could walk through and see the fish.

There was even sharks inside the tunnel.

We spent literally an hour in there watching the fish swim around and taking photos.

Can you find the sharks?

Joel LOVED watching the fish swim by. Micah even got in on the action, staring at the fish.
 

AHHHHH!!!! A SHARK!

They had a puffin exhibit as well. We also saw Auks (similar to a penguin) in that exhibit.

Joel did eventually touch an actual starfish....rather than just playing in the water.
 
 
 
 
 

Joel caught his first fish! Yes, it was fake..but at least he practised catch and release!
