Fishies

Yesterday mum and I had such a good time at the aquarium, we were there for a good 4 hours or more. o.O And holy hell was it busy, I wasn't expecting it to be so busy. Lots of kids and tour groups. I totally forgot that some schools are out on spring break right now. Anyway, we still had a lot of fun and the ticket guy let my mum in for free because it was her birthday. :D That saved us a good $20!

One of my favourite bits was the otters, they were just playing and diving and having a good time. We got to see the trainers feed them and tell us about how they were rescued and rehabilitated, but couldn't go back to the wild. Then this one otter (the one I posted the video of in my second to last post) was all sleepy and just floated next to the glass and I was a good foot away from him. He so fuzzy and cute. Otters are the only animal that has stood up to my Jackson and survived. He had a big scar across his muzzle after that encounter. :P

Another fun part was going down to the viewing gallery and watching the harbour seals and seal lion underwater. This one little girl had a pen and was just dragging it across the glass in front of the seals. Two of them were just fascinated, they just followed the pen around and around, their noses pressed up against the glass. They were so cute! They have such cute whiskers as well.

After the aquarium we went down town to Gas Town and had dinner at the Spaghetti Factory. I love that place and we were both stuffed by the end of it. When we got home I gave mum her presents and she was so happy. I got her stuff she didn't ask for and that was a nice surprise. I wanted to give her a good birthday and she had a great time. :)

Some piccies from yesterday!


The belugas at feeding time.







OTTER FEET! :D








This one is probably my favourite picture of the bunch. I love it so much, the seal looks like it's in suspended animation. :P Or dead. LOL


This one is for [livejournal.com profile] burningxflowers.


Jellyfish! They're so weird and jellyfishie.


Today I met up with [livejournal.com profile] gremmie_goo after work and we had a workout. :) We had to try about 5 different treadmills before we found ones that worked properly. At first Goo couldn't get the channels to change on the TV or the volume, then there wasn't any ear phone plugs, and then my ear phone plugs weren't working properly. After about an hour a good 5 minutes looking for ones to work we started our workout. :P Afterwards we went and had a nice lunch and then we went to look at books. I bought two really trashy romance novels. I've actually never really read super trashy romance novels, but I felt like something full of sex and hot men. I got The Pirate Prince and Slow Hand Luke. XD It's no wonder this business makes so much, with titles like those and the covers they're so cheesy you have to buy them.

We had fun. *loves her Goo*

The other night I had a super (and oh boy do I mean super) Supernatural dream. And it's one that I can remember *G*. Basically I was Dean's girlfriend and I was 'gifted'. LMAO I wish we could program our dreams every night, that would be fun.

Yay for them letting your mom in free! Pics look awesome (otter feet so cuuuuuuuute!)

Ah, and now I have read your side of the treadmill runaround XD

Hmmmm ... maybe I should go buy myself some trashy romance novels LOL I'd probably die laughing from them.

Nice Supernatural dream there.

I wish we could program our dreams every night, that would be fun.
Brain TiVo and DVR! LOL Oh man I'd LOVE that. Then I'd always have *cough* lovely dreams XDDD

It was nuts. We were like 'Ok, this one HAS to be it'. Nope. NEXT!

Hmmmm ... maybe I should go buy myself some trashy romance novels LOL I'd probably die laughing from them.


Oh, man, I cannnot wait to read them. They seem so... bad. So bad you have to read them. They grab hold of you and never let go.

Mmmm dream TiVo and DVR. Yes.

Yay!

Well, things to do.... The Aquarium is one, and then there is shopping. Robson Street or Metrotown center are good places. There's the art gallery or Science World is always fun. :)

It's actually a Mrs. Octopus, and apparently she's a real flirt, only that day she was sleeping.

I was singing that to the belugas. They probably thought I was insane.
