Went to the Aquarium late in the afternoon, and after it closed, spent a while walking around the "harbor." This is a little old tug that appears to be undergoing some renovation, but in the the meantime, I thought I'd snap it to post to the Flickr groups, Sad Boats and Workboats and Tugs (I love to go to those pages and just turn on the slideshow).

These guys set up at sunset and started playing some Latin Jazz - although all I recognized was "Girl from Imapanema" - Gareth and Avalon started chasing around with some other kids and I had to tell them to go do it somewhere else.
Gareth tries to outteeth the shark (it's actually an air blower to dry off from the water squirters in the children's play area).
Gorgeous sculpture made of blown glass, among other things, depicting human effects on the ocean.
My friend, the leopard spotted stingray (these gals are huge; they're about 6 feet across!)
