Fun Under the Sea at the NC Aquarium

Memorial Day at the NC Aquarium

On Monday, I had the pleasure of spending the day with my son!  As we drove to the NC Aquarium in Pine Knoll Shores, he noticed the American Flags EVERYWHERE!  It was the perfect opportunity to share with him what Memorial Day means.  It is much more than a day at the beach, a family cookout, and an opportunity to miss school!  When I started explaining, he said, "Duh.... I know what Memorial Day is Mom.  It's a time to remember all the military who have died for our freedom".  He added that because we have so many military serving in our area, that we should be especially thankful.  Of course, he was still excited to be "skipping" school to head to the NC Aquarium... and so was I.

We had a wonderful time at the NC Aquarium, followed by a day at the pool & beach, and then a big family cookout.  We also remembered the men & women who have given everything for us!

The Tan Man is quite a little guy.............I'm impressed with his knowledge and so glad you had a wonderful time at the aquarium and later on with the family.  Great photos Amy.

Amy ~ sounds like you have a very smart little boy! I too love the aquarium. In traveling to many different cities i've been known to go with either my husband or daughters... No matter how old we get... zoos, and aquariums are still a favorite!

Hello Amy,

I'm sure glad there is not one of those around here.

I would never get anything done. I would want to be there all the time.

Have a rested day back home after the MINI vacation.

Best, Clint McKie
