Labor Day at Moody Gardens

Husband was blessed to have Labor Day off of work..
..and I was blessed that he wanted to treat me to an all day date in Galveston!

We spent the day at the Moody Gardens Resort.
There are like a billion things to do there...SO many things to see!
First we walked through the aquarium pyramid. Yes...it was inside this super cool pyramid building!
Seals, and sharks, and sting rays, penguins, sea horses, and all sorts of other fish.





Here I am laying next to a shark(s)!!




We went on a steam boat ride too! It was a nice way to rest our feet after so much walking.
It was kinda hot outside, but we refreshed ourselves with some BlueBell ice-cream. 
That stuff can make anything better.

I have wanted to play a massive piano with my feet since I saw the movie Big.
This one was NOT as cool. Half the keys didn't work...
I was like taking the stairs in the dark. Ha!

We the saw a Body Worlds exhibit.
Freakin Amazing.

After that, we went into an even COOLER pyramid building. This one was all made of glass and on the inside was a rainforest! Really...the trees were real..the air was HUMID..the monkeys were swinging in the branched right over our heads! So neat.
Crocodiles, tropical birds, pirana, rainforrest cats, and so much more! It felt so neat! 
(The larger and more dangerous animals were kept in enclosures obviously)

..but it was a good hour walk we spent in there. There was so much to see!




Please ignore the face..I don't know what face that is.


No words. 
Well I guess thats 2 words.

And now its 7 words..unless you count the numbers..
but what else is there to count with besides numbers..?
..I ask you.

At around 5, we headed over to their water park. We spent time in the lazy river and splashing in the wave pool! It felt so nice on a hot day. 

We were completely wiped out when we got home that night
 and we had a flight at 7:00am the next morning to Philadelphia, PA!
What can we say..?
We like to play play play!
