Flying in water

We went to the Mystic Aquarium, which is nice but expensive. Their animals seem happy and well-cared-for, and there were plenty of interpretive staff, so I think admission dollars are going to the right places. Here’s a picture of a penguin under water, and another of a fur seal. Did you know fur seals are actually not seals, but closely related to sea lions?

Unexpected stop

My train was significantly delayed this evening — a previous train hit someone in Newtonville. Fortunately for me, Lis was on the same train as me and we were stopped at a station when the announcement came on, so we got out and grabbed some dinner to let the situation clear. I had never been to Lansdowne station (née Yawkey) before.
