Friday was my son Jayden's 5th Birthday. He had a great day, an amazing Birthday cake, all the gifts he wanted... But he also specially requested I take him to the brand new Ripley's Aquairum here in downtown Toronto. Of course, I jumped at it and made a date with him for Sunday after dad got off work. He ask all weekend if Jordan could come too.. I said yes, because I plan to take the girls together in the coming weeks. They love doing things together like this so we'll go for a day in the next few weeks!
It's a pretty penny to get in. $28.98+tax for Adults, $19.98+tax for youth and $9.98+tax for children.
Got there at 7:15, and left just after 9pm. We all had a blast.
I tried to get as many photos as I could but there was just so much to see, and most of the fish were so fast... I did the best I could and got over 100 photos - so, here are just some of my favorites from our trip!
Being so close to all this was absolutely incredible. It didn't take us long to see it all though, so the cost would hold me back from going again aside from taking my girls to enjoy it first of course. We were there so long because I let the boys play in the play area for about 40 minutes, then we went back into the shark area to watch them because they are incredible creatures. I am really glad we went and got to experience this. I'm actually looking forward to taking my girls and hopefully being able to sit a little longer to look at the jelly fish and huge tanks full of tropical fish in the Rainbow Reef. Jayden had so much fun he couldn't wait to go to school to show all his friends his shark tooth necklace I got him in the gift shop! This is a great attraction in Toronto, So amazingly gorgeous.
That looks like an amazing aquarium! My boys would love that place.
