The price was steep compared to what they were offering in terms of exhibits & in comparison to other good aquariums in the country.
The other problem I had was that we couldn't spend money in the gift shop! Even though items were overpriced I wanted to buy 2 stuffed animals for my grandchildren. There was no one working the register but an aquarium employee was monitoring the store to make sure no one stole anything. After a while I suggested maybe he could run the register he said "I don't know how". When I suggested he get someone there that did know how he said "that person is, I think, in the bathroom". 15 minutes later I left purchasing NOTHING. What a way to run a business. They must have taken lessons from retailers like Macy's & Dillard's.
