Waikiki Aquarium


* The Waikiki Aquarium, founded in 1904, is the third oldest public aquarium in the United States. A part of the University of Hawaii since 1919, the Aquarium is located next to a living reef on the Waikiki shoreline.

My dh and my 3 kids went to Waikiki Aquarium this morning and took so many photos. This was inside the Waikiki Aquarium, the kids had so much fun.
Thank you for looking!
