Sharks!

Tuesday, September 27th, 2011

On Sunday, Page and I visited Poppy in San Francisco and went to the Aquarium to see some real sharks.

I think the girls are still a bit young for science. They still had fun. Especially playing on the moving walkways, with exit signs and speakers to grab, and cages to climb on. Page especially liked the touch pools. The Bat Rays in the touch pools were unlike anything I’d seen before. Except trained dolphins. They were very much like trained dolphins. Unfortunately I couldn’t get a good picture of them playing to the crowd.

After the Aquarium, we escaped Las Turistas and had lunch at a fancy restaurant on the Embarcadero. Poppy and Page sat next to each other in high chairs and passed food to each other. Poppy would pass pieces of broccoli to Page, and in return, Page would pass sloppy bits of Dungeness Crab Cakes back to her. We tipped well (for Aussies).

Following lunch, it was back to the Tuscan Inn for a bit of playtime.

I hope we get to see more of Poppy. The weekend was brilliant for Page. She had someone her own age to play with and to look up to. Both girls definitely learned off each other, and played together so well.

Anita and Brucey joined us for a barbie in Palo Alto while they were in San Francisco on their way to Vegas. AND for Page to play with, they brought along their daughter Poppy, who is 6 weeks older than Page. Poppy is the first second cousin on the Gibson side that Page has met.

We cooked up some Wild Salmon, roast peppers, eggplant, potatoes and mushrooms, and Alex made a green salad from produce from the Saturday Farmer’s Market.

Page was been able to walk for a month, but has not been too confident about it. That is, until she saw Poppy walking. Nothing like a little bit of healthy competition to get her walking everywhere.

Page was gracious enough to share her toys with Poppy. It is so nice to see them making friends and grinning at each other.
