Baltimore Aquarium 9-1-07
Last weekend we adventured up to Baltimore to the inner harbor to visit the aquarium. We ate at a little Italian place for lunch, watched a steel band (Caribbean style) play for a little while, but spent most of our time gazing at sharks, turtles, frogs, dolphins, and a couple of Kookaburra’s (which are one of the loudest, most obnoxious birds that I’ve ever encountered) in the Australian exhibit. The lighting wasn’t the best for pictures, but we managed to get a few. We had a great time, but our favorite aquarium is still the Shedd Aquarium in Chicago. If you like fish and sea-life but can’t afford to take a trip to Belize or Austrailia to see it live, the Shedd is the next best thing.

I like the Baltimore Acquarium. It’s laid out really well. I’ve never been to the Chicago one, though, I’ll have to check it out.

What kind of lizard is that?

I’m not totally sure, but I think it’s a Tiliqua Rugosa, or more commonly known as the “Shingleback”, or “Stump-Tailed” skink of Australia.
