Unfortunately, it has been raining all week and today was no exception. Even though the aquarium is indoors, I just couldn&#8217;t rally to brave the long walk from the parking garage. That, and the place is a literal zoo if you don&#8217;t get there early. So, no aquarium for us&#8230;instead, I pulled out these cupcakes that I originally bought for Charlie to enjoy on her birthday, but ended up saving for a rainy day. Today was the day! We&#8217;ll venture out to see the penguins next week.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/_EzNMDgf7WQE\/SuHf0eNcz-I\/AAAAAAAAETY\/WbRUu7TR5QU\/s1600-h\/10-23-2009%2B012.JPG\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5395839921122234338\" style=\"DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 239px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/almostjuliet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/10-23-2009-012.jpg?w=628&#038;ssl=1\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><br \/><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/3.bp.blogspot.com\/_EzNMDgf7WQE\/SuHf0HKXLqI\/AAAAAAAAETQ\/2CWQ4P7XopA\/s1600-h\/10-23-2009%2B013.JPG\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5395839914935266978\" style=\"DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 239px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/almostjuliet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/10-23-2009-013.jpg?w=628&#038;ssl=1\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/_EzNMDgf7WQE\/SuHfz9q-CXI\/AAAAAAAAETI\/JAU8vlqIbgM\/s1600-h\/10-23-2009%2B015.JPG\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5395839912387676530\" style=\"DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 239px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/almostjuliet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/10-23-2009-015.jpg?w=628&#038;ssl=1\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/p>\n<div><a href=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/1.bp.blogspot.com\/_EzNMDgf7WQE\/SuHfzUsMk4I\/AAAAAAAAETA\/LMQBboRNn4I\/s1600-h\/10-23-2009%2B016.JPG\"><img data-recalc-dims=\"1\" decoding=\"async\" id=\"BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5395839901386969986\" style=\"DISPLAY: block; MARGIN: 0px auto 10px; WIDTH: 239px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px; TEXT-ALIGN: center\" alt=\"\" src=\"https:\/\/i0.wp.com\/almostjuliet.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2009\/10\/10-23-2009-016.jpg?w=628&#038;ssl=1\" border=\"0\" \/><\/a><\/div>\n<\/div>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Oh, I am in love!
