Mall of America...

After spending many hours hiking at Nerstrand Big Woods state park, we were hungry...so where do you eat when you're in Northfield?  For us, we went to the Mall of America and ate at the Rainforest Cafe...

Anytime we eat anywhere, they always take turns sitting next to me...it was Lukie's turn that day...


Lex was content coloring under the dim lights of the rainforest...


After dinner, we went to the aquarium at the mall, Sealife...it was a teacher appreciation day, so I was free and guests of mine were 50% off (basically three of us went for the price of one)...first up were the Angelfish...


This was the caiman viewing area...but the caiman's were in the water and Lukie and I had a better view...


Here they were in the cockroach bubble...surrounded by hundreds of cockroaches from Africa...


Good thing these were just sturgeon...no threat here...


Inside the tunnel, it's hard not to hear the theme from Jaws...


This pufferfish did not want to puff up....


The reef tank bubble...lots of clownfish...



They are playing video games here...these are underwater cameras at the ray tank...



Lukie thought he had a personal connection with one of the rays so he kept waving to it...


There's a touch pool so you can touch anemones and sea stars...


Opps...not a shark...no concern here...


This one is bigger than Lex...


This is a shark...way bigger than Lukie...


A great end to a fun day...they don't get that in some places...
