The crew has done some by opening some areas that allows visitors to see things not allowed before. Such as opening hatches in the Num 1 gun turret so you get look at and take pictures of the breech assembly. Before you could only see it thru a small window in the bulkhead. As others have mentioned, masks are required in and outside the ship and they do a forehead scan and ask you to sign a sheet to say your not sick.

Adventure Aquarium is just minutes from downtown Philadelphia on the Camden Waterfront and features one-of-a-kind exhibits with more than 15,000 aquatic species throughout two million gallons of water. The Aquarium is home to the largest collection of sharks on the East Coast, including the only great hammerhead shark on exhibit in the United States, the only aquarium in the world to exhibit hippos, one of only six facilities in the US to have Little Blue penguins as permanent residents and exhibits the longest Shark Bridge in the world, a unique V-shaped rope suspension bridge just inches over Shark Realm. Adventure Aquarium is an accredited member of the Association of Zoos and Aquariums (AZA), and is held to the absolute highest standards in animal care and exhibition.
While in Philly, we drove the quick ride over the Ben Franklin Bridge to Camden, NJ for the aquarium. Although we are going through COVID, we were able to see live animals like penguins and even hippos. They even have an auditorium where u can sit and see the fish swimming. If you are adventurous like me (I couldn’t get anyone in my group to go with me), you can walk on the shark bridge where you are real close to the water to go over them. It is very sturdy and well netted so you can’t accidentally drop anything. You can also touch stingrays. They group you with who you are with to maintain the 6 ft distance.

Cooper River Distillers is the first legal distillery in Camden, NJ ever! We began producing Petty’s Island Rum in April of 2014, and added Driftwood Dream Spiced Rum, Rye Oak Reserve Aged Rum, and Silver Fox Rye to the lineup in early 2015. Our latest innovation is our Single Run Series Whiskey and Cooper River Rye Whiskey which are real treats if you can find them! Our Jersey-proud Copper & Vine Garden State Brandy debuted in the summer of 2016, and Cooper River Bourbon Whiskey is aging now with likely release set for February 2017. All of our spirits are hand-crafted from scratch in downtown Camden, New Jersey, and unlike anything you’ll find anywhere else.
