Patting Sting Rays




Daisy and George and I got to pat Sting Rays at the Mystic Aquarium on Sunday. They are very soft and smooth with a silky mucous all over them. They were in the tank with Sharks - we DID NOT pat the sharks. It was fun. We loved all the different fish and creatures.

Is this the Family Blog?

I don't know which "Blog" to post to - but it is almost the last day of 2008 so perhaps I will make the Robin Sears Blog my own family diary sort of blog - the Nest one will be for art, etc personal and the Rabbits one for Painted furniture and stuff. Sounds confusing, huh?Anyway - this is Daffodil - she joined our family the day after Christmas - she is Daisy's new friend and Daisy picked her out after visiting four different pet stores- we met some scary hamsters - none as adorable as Daffodil - Daisy has always wanted a "pet of her own" never mind that we already have 3 dogs and 3 indoor rabbits - we share them - now she has one of her own. Oh - and George is getting a tankful of fish! Will have to upload a photo of those too!
