In a nearly unprecedented move, our little family took a vacation last week. We flew down to Dallas, Texas, on Tuesday and came home Saturday. We had a really nice time, minus a few hiccups--but what vacation is complete without those?
Our first day in Dallas, we decided to go to the Dallas World Aquarium. Ellis was excited, we paid our $96 admission... and before we knew it, eleven minutes had passed and we'd only seen the inside of the restroom and a shark tank, but a terrified Ellis was wailing, "Get me out of here!" (Noted: the child is terrified of birds
and fish.) Thankfully the lovely people at DWA were willing to give us a refund. On to Plan B!
We regrouped after nap time and went to the Dallas Zoo. Thankfully, no refund was necessary.
