Penguins, of course, are speedy birds in the water, and the water's
surface was right around face level for Sadie. She was particularly pleased
when one of the birds popped up right in front of her.

Also on the trip were Laura's mother, and our friends Penguin (yes,
really!) and John. Here's a picture of Sadie and Penguin:

Mostly of Sadie, though. Oops. :)
There's also a big plastic clam for people to get their pictures taken
in. (I know that's bad grammar - I just can't figure out how to say it!)
We, naturally, took advantage of this. (There are also real giant clams
on display, but they're mere babies themselves - only about a foot across.
And that was Sadie's first trip to the aquarium! We expect there will be many more in the future.
