Aquarium Visit - Day 8, Feb 18



Today we had no idea where we'd end up. We just got in the car. Otis said, "no more museums!" But, when we mentioned the Aquarium, it was thumbs up from both of them. So, we drove to the subway at Alewife and went to the Aquarium. Of course, it being February vacation, we joined the hordes. We have never seen the place so crowded. There was a tent with a winding line to get in. But, as Jec and Willy are members, we just sailed through. We managed to find places by the big tank as we wound our way to the top, so we didn't let the crowds get to us too much. We heard a lecture at the top. Then, we visited the jellyfish and decided it was just too crowded to stay. But, we were all hungry. We tried to eat at Legal Sea Foods, but it was crowded. It was easier just to feed the kids some crackers and cookies and head home. David also arrived in Boston today, but we didn't see him. He was here to take a national EMT test. Afterwards, he took the train to Bridgewater as he will be driving Cal and Alice to Florida. Willy stayed home from school as he had been sick all the previous night.
Mark and I made an apple crisp as he is one of the testers for America's Test Kitchen and that was our latest assignment. The family voted it an 8 out of 10 score.
