Retro-Adventure : Monterey Bay Aquarium




















So here's the first of many Retro-Adventures (post of Adventures gone by, but that still rock in their awesomeness). 

Last year while Skyler was going through his uber training for work, he was in California for almost a whole month, so I flew out for a weekend visit and we explored the coast of Northern Cali.

First stop, the Monterey Bay Aquarium. SPECTACULAR! It was huge and the exhibits were awesome. We loved every minute there and spent the entire day watching the marine life swim under water. 

Did you know that it was my childhood dream to become a Marine Biologist? That is, until I watched the movie jaws. After that I couldn't get into a swimming pool or any body of water with out the fear or what lurked beneath until I was like 16. I love Oceans, but deep swimming still freaks me out a bit. 

Skyler has a deep love of sea turtles. I think they are his favorite animals. He's told me that if he ever strikes it rich he's going to open a sea turtle sanctuary just so he can swim with them whenever he wants.
