Sharks to Aspens


Our event for the morning Sunday was visiting the Shark Reef Aquarium at the Mandalay Bay Hotel. It was a good little aquarium. We saw a komodo dragon, huge fish and piranhas from the Amazon, jellyfish, rays, sea turtles, and of course, sharks. They had a touch pool where the boys got to pet some rays. The jellyfish were a favorite, but hard to get a picture of, it was really dark. There were lots of sharks swimming around; under our feet, over our heads, and around us. We had a good time. Then we drove for the afternoon to our next campsite at Fishlake National Forest, UT. We had some trouble finding it and then setting up the trailer because one of the beds was broken, but we got everything straightened out and had dinner. It was cold! The difference in temperature between Las Vegas and Fishlake was about 50 degrees. But the campsite was beautiful, surrounded by aspen trees. After dinner, we got ready for bed and snuggled up in our sleeping bags.
