We are thinking about visiting the aquarium on Monday.  Is it a worthy ordeal?

    Definitely.  But it can be busy AF.  Especially on weekends & holidays.  Go early, or expect to be in a long ass line.

    It's pretty cool. Big tank in the middle of the place, touch pools, etc.

    Monday's a holiday, so if like me you aren't keen on crowds, I'd either be there when the doors open or aim for late afternoon.

    The penguins alone are worth the price of admission.

    The penguins are cute but stinky.

    The IMAX there usually has some good stuff as well.

    I went on Monday.

    Yeah the penguins were def. one of the highlights (saw two of them getting it on :wink: )  The sea lions and seals were pretty adorable.  There were too many people at the octopus exhibit to get a good look at.  The anaconda would have been cool to see but i think it was sleeping and i only saw part of it.  The giant sea turtle was also pretty cool.
