Visitor

It’s official. Three members of our family have now made the long trek down from New Jersey to visit us. Charles’ brother Jon came down for a few days of his winter break. (Jon is a graphic arts teacher in NJ) We used the occasion to hit as many of our favorite restaurants as possible. We also took another trip to the Aquarium.






Here is a picture Jon took of one of the fish sizing up the other fish to see if he'd fit.






He also took this amazing picture of the sting rays.








And, sorry, DM, I love this octopus abstract that he also did.












My favorite creatures are still the beluga whales, and I spend a long time watching them swim circles in front of the window for our entertainment, or for their curiosity- it's hard to tell.




The last part of the open ocean section is a huge open wall two stories tall, and probably 60 feet wide. The hammerheads, whalesharks, sting rays, etc., all tour around the tank and take their turns putting themselves on display in front of the window.





















I also continued my study on people interacting with fish with this jelly in a cellphone portrait.
