Porch and I both went to college at UW-Platteville and we both spent time in Dubuque in our free time. Dubuque was about 30 minutes from campus and had the closest mall. We have friends who now live in the area and have a daughter about the same age as Charlotte. We went to visit them this past weekend and we took the girls to the Dubuque Aquarium for an afternoon of fun & discovery.
This aquarium was just the right size to allow for an afternoon visit and included an awesome outdoor area that would be a perfect opportunity for warmer weather visits. The girls are such a fun age where we can explore and they interact with the exhibits. "Oh WOW" was heard a few times from Ms. Charlie.
We had a great time and I'd recommend a visit to anyone with a toddler (or older, obviously). The Sherlock Holmes exhibit upstairs was a bit too involved for our group and required some critical thinking that none of us were willing to put forward. The snake exhibit was pretty lackluster. It felt like an incomplete thought and was disappointing and that's saying something since I hate snakes. Snakes don't have feet and that's not okay!!!!
