The building housing the Portland Aquarium is going to be demolished next year. The aquarium will be closing business on President's Day, February 15, 2016. All of the animals will be rehomed to aquariums across the country while the aquarium looks for a new location.

They're only open until the 25th, but what a fun thing to do after the presents are open and you're done with dinner.

Halloween Movies - Crimson Peak and Hotel Transylvania 2
Crimson Peak
"In the aftermath of a family tragedy, an aspiring author is torn between love for her childhood friend and the temptation of a mysterious outsider. Trying to escape the ghosts of her past, she is swept away to a house that breathes, bleeds...and remembers."
This movie felt extremely long and confusing. The story line is choppy. Most of the devices used to develop story go absolutely nowhere and some make absolutely no sense. I am all about suspending disbelief to enjoy a story, but there is just TOO MUCH. Other story points are crammed down your throat in several unnecessary ways. The characters aren't developed well, which is sad because they are good actors who were obviously doing their best to act the crap out of bad dialog. And it's not scary.
You know how people sometimes write posts on all the things wrong with the movie? That post would be longer than the movie itself.
Verdict: Waste of Time and Money
Hotel Transylvania 2
This one was actually pretty good. I enjoyed it more than I did the first one. There are lots of jokes and gags that the kids will love and plenty of subtle jokes for adults, that will go over kids heads. There's a good little story and lots of fun action.
Verdict: The Kids will love it and you will enjoy it too.
