Back to Mystic

Will perfectly capturing a photo of a beluga whale, the back of the boys' heads in the foreground.
Perfect pic, Will! Way to go!

There are bunches of posts about Mystic Aquarium in the blog. If you put ‘mystic’ in the search bar, you can check them all out.

Will and Mikey standing, smiling, at the railing of an open air pool exhibit, no animal in sight.
I just love these two!

For today, my simple and loving message is that for all families, but maybe most especially families like ours, you don’t need to reinvent the wheel. If there is a place your kids love to go, repeat visits allow for a comfort level that can make the day much more enjoyable for everyone.

In these last days of Summer, is there a favorite experience you can recreate with your kiddos? Remember, you’re creating their traditions.
