Revisiting the (former) National Aquarium in Washington

In today's post I revisit the (former) National Aquarium facility in Washington D.C., our family had taken a trip there with some friends in April 2013, just before its September 2013 closure. The building it had been housed in was reportedly scheduled to go under some large renovations.

To my understanding, all of the sea life was transferred to the National Aquarium in Baltimore. Here are a few photos from that 2013 visit.

Jellyfish are so amazing and delicate looking

Fans of "Finding Nemo" we traveled with loved the "Dory" fish.

I'm not sure what kind of ray this is, but I thought so pretty

    I didn't realize that DC had an aquarium in the past. I LOVE the one in Baltimore! Cool captures Leigh.

      I didn't know for the longest time either - it was a very small aquarium actually. I've never been to the one in Baltimore, I'd love to do it someday. Thanks Kerri for visiting and commenting!
