admin On the way home, rob, Erica and I stopped at Garden in the Woods. I wanted to take some pictures for their photo contest (I had a new tripod I wanted to try) plus it was just a nice day to be outside.

June 2nd, 2011 admin We stayed at Mohegan Sun for our anniversary, and decided to stop at Mystic Aquarium on the way home since we both hadn’t been there in years. I forgot how much I love it there! We watched the penguins get fed, watching some beluga whale training, and one of the belugas kept swimming up to the glass with it’s mouth wide open like it was going to bite you- the kids thought it was hilarious! And of course we caught the sea lion show too.
We also saw a bullfrog in the pond, and he was singing! I took some pics and made an animated gif out of him.

They don't really jump, they kind of just fall in
They look like they're smiling

Freshwater rays, much more my style
Elephant nose fish, had one as a kid

May 22nd, 2011 admin I originally drove out to Garden in the Woods- which is all the way in Framingham- to try and get some pictures of Mountain Laurel. unfortunately, it wasn’t blooming yet. But I got some great pictures none-the-less. It’s about a mile loop through the woods, where there’s a pond (with frogs!), a stream, and cultivated gardens of both native and rare species. I was very happy to see lady slippers 9and yellow ones, too). I had just commented to Rob the day before that we had them in our woods growing up and I hadn’t seen any in a long time.
