Happy Birthday Marc!

To celebrate Marc's birthday, we went to see a new musical, the Golem of Havana. It was amazing!!! The story is about a jewish family who moved from Prague to Havana after WWII, and is there during Che's revolution. I highly recommend seeing it if you ever have the chance!

Hexbugs!

Not the best quality, but here is a video of our kitty fun this weekend. We found Hexbugs during our grocery shopping, which the cats love. Not a bad deal for $1.50 from Target ^_^ Hours of kitty fun to be had, they move like real bugs!

Marc in action

I recently had the pleasure of getting to watch Marc at work taking care of sick/injured manatees and sea turtles. He is great at his job!

Zoo Miami

Recently got to explore Zoo Miami. Really great facility, and absolutely massive! Its a good 4 to 5 miles to walk straight around. Had an amazing evolution exhibit as well, with lots of hands on sections that explain adaptations of different species. Highly recommend a visit ^_^

The Wild Animal Sanctuary

Had a wonderful time at home with the family for the holidays. We took a outing to the wild animal sanctuary, which is a rescue group that takes in wild animals in need of a home. They mostly were 'pets' that people were not properly caring for. They have a really cool set up, with tons of open space for the animals, and visitors viewing the animals from a overhead walkway. The animals seemed completely relaxed and not at all bothered by visitors. They have a ton of different animals, though we mostly saw big cats and wolves. All in all a great family trip, and really cool facility!

San Fran

The SMM was just held in San Fran, which gave Marc and I a great excuse to see a cool city :) We didn't really like the hotel area much, but did have a fantastic time visiting the sea lions at Pier 39 and fisherman's wharf, as well as a trip south to Ano Nuevo to see the elephant seals. Was a great trip!

Move to Miami - Miami Seaquarium

We are now settled in from our international move from Scotland to Miami. There is lots we will miss, but also lots we are so glad to be back in the states for. And the Miami sunshine is one of them :) Marc just started his new job, and he is loving it. He has already gotten involved with some amazing work on rehabilitating manatees and turtles, just a few days in! I went to visit the seaquarium yesterday. It does some really neat things, and could improve on some things, just like most animal care facilities. It is a great start for Marc's career!
