This morning, we have a very high probability of snow flurries in Long Beach.
At least, in one location: the Aquarium of the Pacific’s Great Hall.
Santa will also be making an appearance, complete with fins and a wet suit.
A giant tree, Hanukkah menorah and Kwanzaa altar will be featured in the festive decor.
And it’s all a part of Aquarium Holidays, which start today at the Aquarium and continue for the next three weeks.

This is always a great time.
They usually have a display of sea-inspired gingerbread houses.
Photo opportunities with Santa happen on weekends throughout Aquarium Holidays, and “snow” falls in the Great Hall.

In addition, next weekend, December 9th and 10th, will include both Hanukkah storytelling and s Kwanzaa celebration.
Aquarium Holidays events are included with general admission to the Aquarium. Capacity is limited, however, and advance registration’s required: no walk-ups. Here’s the link for more information.
And while you’re there, say “hi” to the aea anemones, sea lions and my favorite blue frog for me. I trust they’ve been “nice”, rather than “naughty”, this Christmas season.
