Weekend Mini Vacation

Sep 23, 2009 09:33


Hello there, dear readers (both of you, lol)

I had a pretty good weekend. I was supposed to meet someone over in Seattle, but he stood me up. (Later emailed me saying that he ran into his ex and that's why he wasn't able to meet me. Sigh, so much for getting lucky, but hey, there's always next weekend, right?)

Luckily for me, I had a backup plan just in case something like this were to occur. I would have been pretty pissed off to drive for 45 minutes to get to the ferry, ride the ferry for another half hour, and then hoof it for 20 minutes up to the Pike's market for absolutely nothing. Lucky for me, the Seattle Aquarium was nearby.

One thing is for certain: aquariums are best seen on weekdays, or days where there are not 3 bus loads of screaming children around. I was eagerly waiting for them to  feed the octupus, but I couldn't get very many good pictures because of some dumbfuck family insisted on having their hellspawn screamie children stand in front of the octupus and taking photos for the whole 15 minutes it was out of it's hiding cave. A part of me really wished that a few tentacles would stretch over the glass and hang that freakin bitch... or at least eat her camera or something...

Despite the lack of etiquette of modern american parents, I still had a good time, and even managed to get a few nice pictures.

Edit: 9/26/09 I finally figured out this Web Photos Pro client, and I have finally posted pics in the Scrapbook. The sad thing is that I have already forgotten what  most of the fish were, lol.
