Florida Vacation Photos: Part Ten

One day it was really cold and windy and foggy at the beach.

It was so bad I couldn't really even photograph anything outside.

So, we hit the welcome center of the hotel and saw that there was an Aquarium that was very reasonably priced to go to within 10 miles of the hotel.

I grabbed my camera, and off we went.

I didn't know if the glass on the tanks would give me difficulty in taking photos there or not.

Sometimes it did.

But other times, I got some shots that looked like I was scuba diving and was in the water myself.

The tanks had all kinds of plants at the bottom and beautiful fish, even though it was very small.

I loved this one, it reminded me of a sea cactus:

And this one looked like a bunch of bubble stems:

I wanted to stick my hand in and feel these!:

I wondered if they were rubbery or soft....

Then this yellow cutie swam by:



When the water moved, the edges of this ruffly plant danced, it was so fluid and beautiful:

More of the bubble plant.

Don't you want to reach in and POP them, like that plastic stuff that protects packages?:

Spotted fish!
Curious as to what I was doing:

These purple spikes swayed back and forth like grass in the wind:

There is just so much beauty in the oceans that most of us will never see.

Tomorrow I will have the last set of pictures from the aquarium for you to see....
