A couple of weeks ago, I decided to take the day off from teaching and take all 3 boys on a field trip. B and O were doing animal reports. O decided to do dolphins at first (which was too vague) and finally narrowed it down to orcas. We have seen the dolphins and whales at Discovery Kingdom and SeaWorld, but I wanted to take them to the place that I knew was closest that had them. So, off we went to the Seymour Discovery Marine Center at Long Marine Lab. I had a lab and a lecture here when I was at UC Santa Cruz and I will say that my nostalgia for the city is as great as it has been. Despite the "weirdness", I love Santa Cruz. And, I like the Marine Lab (I think the tank is too small for the dolphins though :o( ). I hadn't been since the boys were, oh, about 6 months old. They had a great time!
