I understated how much we enjoyed the fish, which was a lot.<br /><br />Ashish, Evelyn is dying to fish and eat her catch. She'll settle for regular ol' fishin' but what she really wants to do is something we saw in a movie: shooting jumping fish with a bow and arrow. There was no fishing here, though, not even for birds. There are steel wires over the ponds to stop birds from diving in.<br /><br />Tricia, the fish food machine was the point, for sure. The kids loved it. It was all sort of strange and wonderful, actually. The machine was cardboarded over and I thought it would be empty and we'd be throwing away a dime, but no. It dispensed its treasures and we dispensed them in turn.<br /><br />Stefani, the kids have been devouring aquarium books. We know have 160 gallons of fish in our house in 5 tanks.

I put him back in (with some damage to his stuck fins) and he survived.<br /><br />Kristin, thanks!Susanhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04779866178920345344noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2739153214386464945.post-35197916954844570902009-08-30T17:09:27.073-07:002009-08-30T17:09:27.073-07:00O.K.
