Sasha, four, and Milan, six, excitedly stroked the fish, seeming surprised by their texture, exclaiming it felt “like sand!” Doting dad Gerard could be heard saying (in Spanish) “wow” and “look how cool [the sharks are].” Sasha and Milan sported matching blue rash guards and swim trunks for the adventurous outing.
