Norwalk Aquarium

With family in town, we did not want to spend the day inside. However, we did not want to drive too far to find something to do. The Norwalk Aquarium, which we had never been to was the perfect solution.

The Aquarium is just up the street from the Brewhouse. When we pulled into the parking lot, I was surprised to see a large number of cars. We finally found a free spot on the third level.

As we approached the Aquarium, I thought the building appeared rather small, but there are many interesting things to see. Some of the highlights are the seals and African penguins. I was surprised that most of the penguins are 20+ years old.

There are tropical fish, turtles and sharks. There was a special frog exhibit.

The Aquarium raises jellyfish. I was amazed by how beautiful and graceful these dangerous creatures are.
