Off Topic - Anyone ever been to Boston Aquarium?

[sherman]

And is it Boston Aquarium or New England Aquarium?

Has anyone been there? Any good?

If it doesn't snow too much, going there tomorrow. Not my thing, for the kids meeting their cousins there......

anyways, i was wondering if the place was any good?

 

[Mr.Smith]

I have actually been there. its not that great compared to a couple other places I have been. that said, you will enjoy it. the best part really is the penguins. you can't miss them.have fun

 

[sherman]

cool. i expect it will be crazy busy with no school and all.....

though looks like the snow is coming midnite till dawn so i may be snowed in.....

It's great kids love it. Take your time the different species of fish in the main tank is amazing. There are also smaller tanks for exotic species that require special conditions. The entire place is very interesting and educational. Take the on-line virtual tour for a preview. I hope you and your group have a great time.

I believe they call it the New England Aquarium but whatever the name is I have been there and I enjoyed it. Defidently worth a visit.

 

[sherman]

It is nice I like. You will like too. Make sure to go to the IMAX movie Sherm.The funny thing is there is a seafood resataurant across the street. I think it is for the slow learners.Hahaha.This is english humor.I like.It is nice.

New England Aquarium

Not a bad take...the dolphin shows were my favorite. I'm of the opinion that all aquariums are basically the same--if you've been to one dark room full of fish tanks, you've been to them all. There are some better, newer ones out there (Charleston, SC; Tampa, FL), but the NE is okay.

turns out we had to reschedule, but thanks guys!

i have been there quite a few times. i like it a lot also. i have a tough time sitting through the seal show with all those noisy kids though.

 

[Minnow]

I went once in the 70's and there was a seal in one of the outside pens. He could talk.. I swear, I wasn't on drugs! We were certain there was some sort of trick, but no. Standing there and hearing this weird voice saying hullo, hullo! It was worth the price of admission.

 

[mizagot]

Definitely worth a visit. But I thought it would be bigger. The penguins are one of the best parts.

 

[sherman]

guys, i went to there today and boy was i disapointed....

i didn't have to pay as my cousin had passes but i would have been pissed if i had to pay....that place was small.....and really nothing too exciting.....

 

[RobFunk]

you built it up too much in your mind. its not sea world

 

[sherman]

rob, i really didnt build it up at all.........not really an aquarium guy......but cmon, i think they were charing $16.95...........theres hardly anything there....
