Today some friends and I from work went to the Scarborough Sea Life center! There were lots of RAYS, and CRABS, and even a LOBSTER. Also some penguins, seals, loads of fish, some sharks, and a SEA TURTLE! We all had a fun time. Unfortunately it was not at all well-lit, and flash photography was prohibited, so I didn't get any photos except of this turtle:
Also I made some videos of some other turtles, I'll try posting them on youtube later. Here is a lego sculpture that was by the ticket desk. Apparently a new lego fun centre of some kind is opening in Manchester, but not until I leave.
At the centre, I got a little stuffed blue lobster, which will feature in later photos. Here, we had gone to a restaurant, and Lobbie is trying to escape. Into the grey, grey outdoors.
The restaurant had this great drawing up on the specials board!
It took awhile to get our food, someone at the table got a little bit over-eager.
Make that more than one person.
The food was great, I had a dish made with potato, cheese, leek, and some kind of fish. And some salad. Yum! With Yorkshire Tea, but of course. Outside, this seagull had found something tasty, too.

And we thought it was futuristic science fiction! Or a remake of Pocahantas or Fern Gully!
