Today, we paid a visit to the Wildlife Conservation Society Aquarium in Brooklyn (we wanted to do something indoors, and free/cheap - well, it was free thanks to our year's membership of the WCS).
Okay, so it's not 100% outside - the basic layout is a lengthy courtyard surrounded by indoors exhibits, with open pools along one side housing walruses, seals, otters, and penguins.
Nevertheless, Aliza had a grand time, particularly in the coastal/reefs exhibit, where she ran from tank to tank, pointing and shouting "Fish, fish, fish!".
Then we had a tour of Brooklyn on the way home, and we located (but didn't stop at) the ChipShop.
