The exercise:
Write something that takes place at: the aquarium.
Max, as we expected, just about lost his danged mind at the aquarium this morning. He never lacks for enthusiasm, but he was off the charts excited.
I've got lots of pictures on my phone, along with several videos. Will share some once I get them onto the laptop.
For now, know that his favorite things were the jellyfish, the shark, the turtles, the monkeys, and the sea otter. Oh, and the penguins and the little fish and the big fish and the really big fish and the gigantic fish.
So, you know, basically everything.
Catching the ferry to the island tomorrow morning. Looking forward to being back home for a few days.
Mine:
"Sir?"
Man, this place is incredible. I wonder how long it took them to collect all this stuff. Years, at least. Decades maybe?
"Excuse me, sir?"
And the colors! So many colors. I'd never have dreamed such things could be found in nature. Well, without humans dumping toxic chemicals on them first. Obviously.
"Hello, sir?"
I hardly know which way to turn, what to see next. They should have just made this one big hallway. Go up one side, come back down the other. That way nobody would miss any of this. What's with all these doors and different floors and this... what? Amorphous blob of a layout? What the heck's wrong with rectangles and squares and tr-
"Sir!"
"Oh, I'm sorry, were you speaking to me?"
"Sir! Your child has somehow found his way into the monkey exhibit!"
"He has?"
"We don't know how he did it - there aren't even any access points from this side of the glass! But he needs to get out of there before something terrible happens!"
"Oh, I wouldn't worry about that. I've always said he's more monkey than boy anyway..."
