Bored on the Bayou

When Foo got his first glimpse of the Buffalo Bayou, he was not too in love with it. The water doesn't move, and it's kind of brown... so whatever.

But then he realized the area was filled with many cool sights to see, like the Downtown Aquarium and Restaurant, which comes complete with its very own waterfall. Foo needs to go there someday!

Skyline a la Shedd

Foo thinks this is one of the best views of the Chicago skyline, and he's not wrong. Thrust out into Lake Michigan, the Shedd Aquarium provides a great perspective of this beautiful city.

Order Up a Tux!

Foo was feeling just a bit underdressed when he met this group of finely tailored feathered friends. Regardless, his feet were feeling kind of happy. Cha cha cha.

Iguana Be Friends

Foo really wanted to be friends with Iggy the Iguana, but his bodyguards thought it would be best for Foo to keep his distance so he wouldn't be lunch.

Jeeper Creeper

Foo was having a great time at the aquarium, checking out all the fish and other things, but he had a funny feeling he was being watched...

Fish Foo-d?

The sheer size of some of the fish made Foo really, really glad they were trapped behind glass and not able to snack on Foo, especially because these two looked a bit hungry.

That Sucks!

Foo thought it was absolutely hilarious that all this fish does is suck!!!! Yeah... he went there. 

Fish-Zilla

At first Foo thought the Shedd Aquarium people were just telling a bunch of fishermonger tales and putting up fake examples of these giant fish that swim in the fresh-water lakes.

But then he actually saw one for real... a real live arapaima. Now that's a keeper!!

Robo Fish

Foo liked going to the Shedd Aquarium in Chicago, but for the longest time, all he could find were mechanical fish.

Stone Man and the Fish

Foo was very excited to make his first visit to the Shedd Aquarium in Chicago! After seeing this statue at one of the entrances, he just wants to tell people that you can love your fish, but just don't love your fish. It can't be good for the children...

Ride the Turtle

After seeing Finding Nemo a while back, Foo has been obsessed with the idea of riding the waters on the back of a giant turtle, so there was no way he was going to pass up this opportunity, even though it was only stuffed... and not in water... and not in Australia... and not with Marlin and Dory...

Foo in Sharks' Clothing

Some say you should never trust a Foo in sharks' clothing, but really? Who can you trust if you can't trust Foo?

Even if he is surrounded by all those pearly whites... Just look at that smile!

Octo-Foosy

Bring on the Foo-featured Bond film remakes! First up, Octo-Foosy. With his new octo-hat, Foo is ready to wrap his tentacles around anything that moves.

Talon-ted Foot

Foo was fascinated by the size of this bird foot. He searched all over for the bird, but didn't find it. He kept a close watch on the skies all the same...

In the Back-quarium

Foo liked the outside of the aquarium just as much as the inside. They even had a real bayou-like area where real alligators could come up to snack... er... smile.... yeah...

Bone Heads

Foo, as always, tried his best to make friends everywhere he went inside and outside the aquarium, but when he ran into these bone heads, they were very tight-lipped, but at least they consented to smile for the camera.

Surf and Turf

Foo was happy to find friends he could play with in the open air. Problem was Otto the otter was a bit fast for Foo to keep up. 

And Terry the turtle would only come a little bit above the water.

Dolphin Dancing

Foo was so excited to see the dolphin show at the Corpus Christi aquarium that he just couldn't wait for the above-water action! 

He went below, and boy, did he have a great show down there. Derek the Dolphin was particularly friendly and active, laughing and playing and even tossing and catching a ball!

Jelly Balloons

Foo's favorite fishies were the jellyfish, but only because he really wanted to see if they would pop like balloons.

Foo's Fishy Friends

Foo loved his fishy friends and had a great time exploring their underwater lives with them.

Some were big, some were small.

His favorites were the Lion Fish (there was just something familar about them)... 

...and the sting ray chomp, chomp, chomping on his lunch. All this fishy frolicking was making Foo hungry.
