So while she was having a good time, Tracy, Kerri and I decided to go down to Newport on the Levee and the Newport Aquarium. This is just across the Ohio River in Kentucky. I love being down on the Ohio River and watching the boats and stuff.
First we went into the Newport Aquarium. It has been several years since we were there. It's a really nice Aquarium and we saw some pretty strange and wonderful creatures. Here are just a few.
Then we went out on the Levee and watched the river and all the activities going on.
They had Octoberfest on the Levee going on and we were watching some guy with 2 little girls doing the chicken dance. They were so cute and having so much fun.
And here's what Kerri was doing most of the time. Texting! Are you kidding me?!? With all the cool stuff to see, she stuck her nose in her phone. But that was a good time to her, so I say..."Whatever" :-)
These guys were fun. They were playing some sort of drum and the sax. They were pretty good and then they had homemade instruments that the kids could join in with. I thoroughly enjoyed listening to them.
Then as we were leaving, we decided to stop and have an ice cream from Coldstone. Man! was this good. I'm not sure I've ever had one before. Wow! Good Stuff!
I love Satudays like this. Hope you all had a great weekend too.
