I would have wished you a happy fourth of July, but I was out with my son on a New England Aquarium whale watch! We took the sunset cruise and ran into a bunch of whales who happened to be practicing for the synchronized swimming event at the olympics.
As the sun set, we cruised back into Boston Harbor, saw fireworks, the USS Constitution and the Queen Mary 2. She’s a big lady and apparently one of the biggest cruise ships to sail! Here’s the link to the photo album and I’ll be posting a video below.
(and the rocket’s red glare, indeed)
A most awesome way to spend the 4th! I didn’t do anything that exciting, but did have a great 4th spent with family.
Ditto on the awesome way to spend the 4th. We almost went to Boston but decided on lazy weekend in Brooklyn instead.
And I’m still proselytizing Pic Lens. It’s a Firefox add-on and it works on your pictures link and makes looking at them so much more awesome. If you haven’t used it, you need to…right now.
Oh, and I noticed you’ve got “Next” on your list of planned books. I beg you. If you purchased this book…return it unread. If you received it as a gift…regift it immediately…to someone you don’t care much about. As a last resort, you can use it as kindling.
But whatever you do…DON’T READ IT!
P.S. I’ve successfully put the book out of my mind, so I can’t tell you why I hated it so much…I honestly can’t even remember what it was about…but I do remember flinging it across the room when I finished it.
Yesssss! Another convert. The difference between looking at a “slideshow” and looking on piclens is like the difference…well something ok and something awesome!
Glad you like it.
Holy crap is right! I just installed it and wow - what a difference! I’m going to recommend it to all my friends and clients.
oh kate!! i love the video!! how majestic these creatures are!! i am so glad that you took Will to see them.
I remember going on a field trip with you to see whales. Besides watching 45 kids heave their guts up over the side , there was not much activity whale-wise that day. Looks like you ran into huge pod of them. Wish i was there with you.
