Shark Reef Aquarium

June 23, 2009 by  

This past weekend we drove out to Las Vegas. Since we got there late on Friday night and left on Sunday morning we really only got a full day to do stuff. We gambled, we ate, we watched a movie, we ate, we hit up the jacuzzi and we ate some more but one of the highlights of the trip was the Shark Reef Aquarium at Mandalay Bay. We took our friends Claudia and Jimmy along with us which was cool because they had never been to that aquarium before. This aquarium is smaller than some of the aquariums we’ve been to in California but don’t be fooled by it’s size because it’s main attraction, the shark exhibit, is a 1.3 million gallon tank and the whole place has over 2,000 animals inside. Even though our trip to Vegas was short we all had fun walking through the aquarium and taking our awesome group photo (see below). Of course no trip to Vegas would be complete without a visit to Dunkin’ Donuts, Bryan ended up buying a great souvenir T-shirt.

Unfortunately that Great White is not real.
