Aquarena Springs

We met Geep and Pop at Aquarena Springs (now called Aquarena Center) on Sunday for a picnic and Glass-Bottom Boat ride. Even without Ralphie the Swimming Pig, the Mermaid Show, Alpine Swiss Ride and Space Needle thingy of the old school Aquarena Springs, we had a good time. Spencer loved seeing all the fish of course, but he also had fun crawling through a dark cave, drinking from a water fountain, walking across the Wetlands Boardwalk, and trying Nacho Cheese Doritos for the first time. It was a banner day!





Geep made Spencer a book of some of the words he knows and gave it to him before we left. She also made flash cards that he can match to the words on the pages. Very cool! You can check out a noisy little video here.

I love how in the video Spencer turns around to check to see that Pop is still behind him, and Pop gives him a nod like, "I'm right here Buddy," then Spencer can continue looking at his book :)
