Aquariums & Bugs

Monday, Jul. 27, 2009 | 47 Comments

Today we went out in the boat! It was looking like stormy weather so we didn’t go far. Not out to barrier islands. We stayed in the sound instead and anchored at a nice big sand bar! The sun came out & was so intense! I’m quite pink again, hahahaa! It was so quiet & relaxing. A whole little island to ourselves. I didn’t bring my phone so no pics just yet~

Then we came home about 3 hours later because some storm clouds were brewing. Went to Edd’s Drive In for lunch! Looove this place. Really old drive-in with foods that can’t be beat! I got a chili cheese dog & a chocolate malt! It’s the type of place that you just can’t get food that tastes like this any where else!


it’s been around since the 50’s??

Yesterday we drove to the Audubon Aquarium of the Americas & Insectorium in New Orleans! Spent 8 hours there! My legs were so sore but it was fun since I hadn’t been in years. The insect place was brand new. I think my Dad just reaaally wanted to go to gross us girls out! It worked.

tis me~

there’s this pretty aquarium tunnel at the entrance with fish & sting rays & more!

There’s an amazon forest part too with river fish & birds!

At the insect museum. They had designs made using beetles & other insects. This is a beetle design made using beetles! Gross but cool too~

There was a full 3 section dragon design. This is the head portion!

VooDoo~
Took it as we left New Orleans. I remember visit in 2005 before Katrina/flood damage. The city was never that clean or modern but now it looks like a ghost cracktown. Really, really bad. It’s a shame. This store is refurbished though & thought it went well with the voodoo gumbo chips I posted earlier!

Well I leave home for DC tomorrow. I dunno. It’s been a bit up & down. It has been quiet though & being outdoors with hours to walk barefoot in the grass… Yea I miss that! But I’m finding I miss DC too. I couldn’t believe it but I do! Guess it’s not time for me to retire just yet to a quiet town huh!? Haahaahaa!

It’s 9:30 & my family is already settled down for bed, lol. So I’m bored. I went swimming today and accidently fell asleep in the sun ;_; but it seems the only part that burned were my shoulders thankfully!


aloe is such a life saver!

so much suuuun!
And green!


so many pretty flowers blooming right now! Big too & vibrant


I went & got some snacks tonight. My family rarely has snack foods . I love these chips! Their flavors are so fun and local ! I can’t find ‘em in DC :(


Spicy Cajun Crawtators flavor!

Voodoo Gumbo flavor!
I bought these! They don’t taste like gumbo though. More like bbq + spicy + dill chips lol
but good still!

I have this huge zit on my face! Raawr! I couldn’t bring all my acne stuff on the plane (since I only brought carry on.) So my face is angry at me . Plus it’s so humid here my skin’s confused.

Well I’ve been zoning in & out watching Everybody Loves Raymond so I’m gonna go!
