3:00 snapshot, #156.


We can see the famous "Pink Palace" from our hotel. This snapshot is a bit of an anticlimax, but we went back to the hotel between 3 hours at the zoo and 2 1/2 hours in the ocean. :)

Best moment of the day: tossup between seeing a Komodo dragon, and realizing that squeals of delight as the ocean tosses you around are universal.

On this day in 365 Urban Species: Moon jelly. These must be conspicuous down by the Fort Point Channel lately, as two friends emailed me asking about them.

the Ritz, the Hilton, Raffles, the Waldorf-Astoria.... can't think of any other *famous* ones... does Bates Motel count?
