The Traveling Toddler Visits the Barcelona Aquarium

Fish are fun. So we went to visit the Barcelona aquarium. Now, everyday, The Adorable Son asks to go see the fish. So we went again. We are quickly becoming the aquarium's most reliable customers.

It boasts a wild array of fabulous fish tanks, and The Adorable Son was ecstatic as he ohhhhed and aaaaahed at all the beautiful fish.  Big fish. Small fish. Then big fish again. Back and forth. For a long, long time. And the aquarium also includes a fish tank tunnel you can walk through as though you are underwater. Simply fantastic.

If this part gets boring, which it dosen't, but you have to move on one day... You can head upstairs to the play area that has a water tube slide (Ooooooh, silde! Water!), and a submarine (Mix of awe and uncertainty at the soundtrack of diving noises playing inside the cabin).

Then stop for some penguin action in the polar section, and let the Toddler run around in the child-sized tunnels under the manta ray tanks, and your day is complete.

A three hour nap ensued. From which the Adorable Son woke up saying "Fish."

I feel like we will be back.
