Amy and I visited the California Academy of Sciences today--our first trip to the temporary location in downtown San Francisco. A new facility is under construction in Golden Gate Park--we walk by the site almost every morning and watch it progress day by day. The temporary facility is a nice afternoon diversion--sort of a pocket museum. The most interesting thing about the much-hyped dinosaur exhibit is watching the kids ooh and aah over the giant skeletons. But the real treasures are the animals in the Steinhart Aquarium collection, like the seahorses above--there are a few more shots in my Miscellany album. We missed the penguin feeding today, but if you can stand lots of squealing from the waist-high audience, I suspect it would be highly entertaining.
