Our second full day in Corpus Christi was full of activity. We toured the USS Lexington. It is a decommissioned naval aircraft carrier that is permanently docked at Corpus. I had hoped the the ocean breeze would keep us cool on the ship. However, that turned out to only be true on the flight deck. Inside the ship, it was really hot. It was neat, though, because you can tour the whole ship. The whole thing is a museum with lots of planes both inside the ship and on the flight deck as well. Quinn loves anything to do with transportation nowadays, so a place that incorporates both ships and planes was right up his alley. Aside from it being so warm, it was interesting to visit.
After stopping at a restaurant down the block for a cheeseburger, we walked a little further to the Texas State Aquarium. It's right on the waterfront and has some great exhibits. There was a big splash pad in one section. We hadn't brought the kids swimsuits, so we skipped that part. We had a wonderful time in Corpus Christi!
I'm not sure why his blonde hair looks red here.
