The Aquarium, Swimming and Fireworks

This morning, when given a choice between going to the zoo, beach or aquarium, Evan chose the aquarium. But, it seems as though the older Evan gets, the less the aquarium holds his attention. That's fine though, we still probably spent at least an hour there checking out the fish tanks. In the touch pool we got to see the smallest hermit crab I have ever seen, and we were also there to see the seals being fed.

After naptime Evan and Jon had a swim in the pool. It's so much fun to take Evan in the pool now, as he now has this "floatie" that allows him freedom to swim around and jump in on his own, so he spends about twice as much time in the pool as he used to. It also certainly helps that both the water and air temperatures are significantly higher here now than they are in the winter months when we typically come to Hawaii!

In the evening Evan and I made our nightly trek over to the playground to make some friends, then caught the fireworks at the Hilton lagoon before heading back to the condo for dinner.
