National Aquarium -- March, 2008
| We took advantage of having a free Monday to head up to Baltimore to the ever popular National Aquarium. It was really nice to be there on a weekday when it was less crowded. We could take all the time we wanted to check things out (and the sharks had lots of time to check us out). |

| I'm not sure there is much more to say about the aquarium. We have photos from a trip last June and with Steve, Helen and Aaron in July of 2006. It's just a fun place to visit, very well laid out and very big. | |||||||

| Robert liked watching the fish swim by, but he also really liked the big ramp that winds down the three floors of tank. And I must confess: I liked playing with the new focusing screen and lens for my camera -- even though it's really dark in the aquarium. Sarah, of course, really loves watching the fish swim around; I'm not sure if she or Robert is the bigger fan. |

| The Amazon space is a nice change, a little steamy and brighter. And the birds are still there, though it looked like nap time for the parrots. | |||||||

| The dolphin show was fun, as always. I don't remember the jump over the big blue ball or the frog getting a ride from our previous visits. Makes you wonder about the jobs of dolphin and dolphin trainer -- thinking up new fun things to show the crowds. |

| Clearly, another place we'll come back to. | |||||||
