We got back home (Or to the RV) around 7:30pm from town today. We decided to visit the Aquarium and after that we went to Canal Park Brewery. Canal Park Brewery Website The food was very good but pretty pricey They had burgers, sandwiches, salads, etc. You know, the usual brewery menu. ;)
The Aquarium was a lot bigger then I expected. It had two floors and the biggest touch pool in north America. It's not the kind of touch pool where it is really shallow and you can pick up the little sea creatures. This one was about two and a half feet deep with big fish that you were aloud to touch with one finger at a time. The fish were all kinds of sturgeon. A lady that worked there said that those fish can grow up to 26 feet long! Whoa! We also got to see some Turtles and, believe it or not, birds. There were some really big fish (including the sturgeon) like a cat fish and some rays. At the gift shop I got a little green turtle. It's the kind of stuffed animal that feels like they've filled it with sand. I still can't think of a really good name for him/her.
The last thing we did in town was look in a visitor center that was about big boats that would carry cargo (that looked kind of like coal) from one place to the next along the great lakes and walked to a light house. I don't think it was being used any more. It was pretty small, we weren't able to go inside. But it was, of course on the lake, so it was really pretty. The waves were huge!
We are still deciding where to go tomorrow.
