One of our trips was in the Boston Harbor where we got to tour the USS Constitution, the oldest commissioned warship afloat. We also went to the New England Aquarium.
This is the USS Constitution, still owned and operated by the US Navy. On the day we toured, it was FREEZING! The people stationed on this ship (yes people are still assigned to it) said that they mostly just paint, but every once and a while they can take her out to open sea. The lower decks are very short, and I felt bad for Steve because he was a little uncomfortable down there.
Mariah LOVES aquariums. She had so much fun pointing at all the fish. She was really taken with the jelly fish.
This is Brian and me riding the sea turtles.
Mariah is already starting to use manipulation. At the gift shop of the aquarium, we gave her this turtle to play with to keep her entertained while we looked around. But as soon as she held it, she was in love. She literally adored this little stuffed animal, giving it hugs and smiling. And then Grandma gave in and bought it for her.
