Pt. Defiance Zoo and Aquarium

We spent today at the zoo - the weather was psychotic alternating between sun, wind and torential downpours - which actually made for a good day because the zoo wasn't crowded at all. Because of the rain, we spent most of our time in the aquariums - but that was ok, we had a blast.














The two standouts of the day were the sharks - too cool to have those guys at eye level - and the belugas who were much more playful than I had expected. I also enjoyed the big old walrus - Up close he was so much bigger than I imagined - bigger than they seemed when viewing them from a ship.

I cant wait for the next visit from Max and Ilona, we will definitely have to bring them here.
