Zoo or aquarium?

[sara76]

H and I are taking Amelia to one or the other on Thursday. I'm trying to decide which one. I guess it'll depend on the weather - if it's cool we'll do the zoo. If its hot aquarium. I haven't been to either in lots of years. I'm thinking zoo is cheaper, is it shady enough? Amelia doesn't really care either way. If I'm happy she's happy.

Aquarium.

The aquariuam is actually slightly cheaper, even more so if you buy tickets online. I'd probably go with the aquarium too, as she can get closer to the exhibits to see things.

I haven't been to either, but my brother took his kids to the aquarium when he came to visit and he said they LOVED it.

Wow the aquarium is cheaper now? The zoo used to cost next to nothing, but I guess the same for the aquarium. I'm only thinking that our stroller is a wide load and I wonder if there's room inside the aquarium but I guess its wheelchair accessible so we should be good. My hair will be much happier in the air conditioning.

Ditto on price. I would do the aquarium. We took K when she was only 4.5 months and she LOVED looking at all the fish.

We went to the Zoo on Saturday and while MacKenzie had a blast, it was really hot with very little shade. I would go with the aquarium just for that fact, but once the weather gets cooler, I would definitely choose the zoo over the aquarium any day!

Not taking the weather into consideration I would pick the zoo. Of course, if it's FL hot, then the aquarium.

We walked around Al Lopez today and while it is cooling off a lot, I think I'm sold on the aquarium! Alzi wanna join? Muahahah:)

It's swaptember so we have been to both many times this month. I'm thinking with a little one her age the aquarium might be better.

You poor thing, is it at least after March so you can have that baby first so you can drink lots to make it easier?

[sara76]

And Aegis I can't believe you've been to either! Lots to do!

We just bought out aquarium tix online (thanks for the tip Kim) and decided to get annual passes. Who's up for an aquarium play date this year?

Aquarium success! 9 months is a great age for it, and there's lots of fun splash areas for the older ones too. We'll get good use from our season passes.
