Aquarium

Bear with me, still more pictures from our week away.  More knitting/yarn pictures from during that time will come soon.  Can you spot E in the very top picture?  We rarely miss visiting the aquarium when we're in Seattle.  At least a half an hour was spent watching someone feed the two octopus while listening to another person talk about them and answer questions.  We never even made it to see the the big animals like the sea otters and seals.  Two hours there flew by in a blink.

After returning home, I woke up the other morning in the middle of a dream about crustaceans, the size of large hermit crabs that looked just like the one   in the bottom left picture, that I found crawling around in our bathtub.  And, doesn't that sea anemone in the bottom right picture look an awful lot like a the dahlias in my parents' yard?

How did you get E to keep his eyes open under water? And how long, exactly, can he hold his breath? ;-)

What does it say about me that the octopus photo made me think, "Mmmm, nice color for yarn."

Great aquarium pictures! The octopi are our favorite at the Seattle aquarium. You'll have to catch the otters and sea lions next time. Whenever we have friends and family visit from outside the area we splurge on City Passes. We may not make it to all the attractions every time, but I don't think we've ever passed up a trip to the aquarium! (And now I feel the urge to go up and look for dragons. . .)
