The newly formed Baby Boomers group at church went to the NC Pine Knoll Shores Aquarium Friday night and had a ball! I know, you don't believe I'm old enough to be a Baby Boomer..........and you're right; I went with Terri.....who is! Just kidding, we had a really good time. We've been to several parties through the years there, and one major league wedding reception this past year for Heather and Captain Nephew Kevin; but this party was a little unique; watch the videos and see why.
First up, a shot from the big tank; Terri encourages me to take a pretty fish's picture; or at least I think that's what she meant
This features a nice channel bass with lots of spots
A nurse shark comes by; that is a nurse shark isn't it Heather?
A lionfish and an eel; lionfish are now off the NC coast
In this shot, several sharks, a couple of cobias, tons of jacks and a beautiful tarpon cruise by
Now here is where the evening took a turn; many of you have been to this aquarium, ever seen it from this view? This is the rail above the U-boat display tank. Warning: the noise level is very high due to the water pumps in operation, you might want to turn the volume down before opening.....especially if you are in an office right now.
The last video, again with a high noise level due to the pumps, shows lots of sharks, jacks, and at the end three cobias cruising over the top of the U-boat.
We had a great time.
We had a great time.
This week: someone in our family is retiring. Want to see some pictures? Tune in later

UJ, great videos! Is this what they meant when they said you and Bobby were fishing this weekend? How many fish did you catch outta the U boat tank??
As much as you like the water, I am surprised you didn't jump in the tank with those sharks. Good video!
There was a net at the top, I told Terri I could dip a couple of drums out, and then I could sleep late and stay warm all weekend; the staff didn't agree.........
