Saturday outing, Sea Life Aquarium

This weekend I got a chance to take an adventure up to Sea Life Aquarium in Carlsbad. It is owned and operated by Legoland. I was very interested in heading up there because the kiddos love fish. I was not interested in heading up there because I was single-momin it due to deployment.

The kids had a really good time. I should really give my kids credit, even though they drive me nuts sometimes.

Sea Life Aquarium is a large reef tank with sharks. They focus on conservation efforts and how to care for the ocean. Since Sea Life is also part of Lego Land they have a couple things made from Legos. I am not sure which my kids liked more, Legos or the fish.

 The aquarium is not in the same gate as Legoland. It is right by the front gates. You have the option to leave your stroller behind or take it with you. I took mine with me (remember I am single mom-in it) Sea Life is geared towards kids. There are interactive parts in every section,

 

They also have a large shark section that I was impressed with. Since sharks do not always do well with captivity, These sharks looked great. 

This is one of the Lego statues. Prince called it a Diver Dude.

The tickets to Sea Life  are cheaper than Legoland. It is well worth it if you want an interactive place for your kids to play. For a family of for the total is $64 and their food in the cafe is reasonable. 

 

 I like Sea Life and we plan on going when Sailor Dude gets back from deployment. I really enjoyed myself there. It is somewhere  that I can take three kiddos alone and not feel like they will run off and get lost. 

 

 Sea Life also offers tickets at MWR for a 10% discount for Military families. Please call your local MWR for details.
