BIRTHDAY PART 2

So Adam always jokes how he loves his birthday being first because he can see how good of presents I get him--so that way he has a bar set for how good of a present he has to get me...and he's really good at one upping me every year. I dont' know what it is but I just seem to have the hardest time shopping for him..I mean lets get serious last year I got him a paper shredder...boring. So this year I tried really hard and got him a lot of his favorite stuff...shoes, tv shows, hat..and whatever. And this year was one of my favorite birthdays--it was so much fun. He got me a really nice camera--which I've been wanting one for a long time, it's a nikon coolpix, and the picture below with the suitcase is what he wrapped it up in.

So both of us had most of the day off...he had to do an install that night. But it was such a fun day. We went the the Baltimore aquarium, and it was so cool. It was huge! They obviously had tons of different kinds of fish, they had a huge place for all of the different sharks, sting rays, a huge sea turtle, then they had a seperate place for Australia reptiles and fish and different kinds of birds, they had a really cool jelly fish exhibit--that had a ton of different kinds of jellyfish, we went to a 4-d show, which if your wondering because we didn't know what it is a 3-d show with extra phyical features like when a dolphin or a whale breath out of the holes it would spray water on you, or if it would show creepy things in the water that looked like snakes a plastic tube would whip your ankles a lot like they are swimming past you...bubbles when the animals were under water--so you couldn't tell if they were real or on the show. So that was really cool, and they we went to a dolphin show--and that was so much fun to watch, neither of us had ever been to a dolphin so before--so it was a good day to do it :)

After the aquarium we just walked around the harbor for a couple of hours--it was so pretty there and they have a ton to do. We were going to go to a baseball game that night to...but out of no where it started pouring rain...it was such a nice day before that too--and if anyone has experienced a rain storm back east--they are insane...it seriously is like someone is dumping a bucket of water over you--you are drenched from being out there for 30 seconds. So instead we went and did an install.
