Aquarium at the Reef-Mandalay Bay

This was our trip to the Aquarium at the Reef.
This was the "touch" pool. You could touch thestingrays with just your finger. This guy was a character! I sure wish I could have understood what he was thinking. His antics sure were funny, like he knew he was cool. He would make laps around the edge so everyone could touch him and just when he had everyone leaning in he would turn and head the other way, splashing anyone close! He was cracking me up!
We were getting ready to pick up the engine and head home when we wanted to check out more while we were here. So we pulled into Mandalay Bay. Just by chance we saw they had the Aquarium at the Reef so we checked it out. It wasn't too pricey and we thought what the heck.

Despite that face he really loved it! And my sweet girl is always game, no matter what it is.

This darn shark swam right over our heads! It was so cool. There were several tunnels you could walk through and they could swim all around you. We even saw two people scuba diving in there cleaning the glass. We tried to be cool and not oogle at them. You know, act like we were there to see the fish!

The sea turtle was a hit, although a bit elusive.
