Washington DC
Can you tell where this is? Washington DC, of course! (See the pencil (or obelisk, if you want the right term)? Well, it's called the Washington monument, I call it the Pencil... Hee-hee!) It's still very nice there, even during Fall season!
I've been to DC a few times but have never gone to the old post office for the views. I've been to the top of the Washington monument but at this time, it was closed for repairs due to earthquake damage. Unbelievable, right? It's not California and there was an earthquake! =) I only heard about the old post office because the pencil was closed and they were advertising the old post office as an alternative to view DC. We almost didn't find the old post office, and finally found it. Doesn't look like a post office, right? Ha-ha!
Can you recognize DC from the photos above? I can, for the one with the pencil, but the others I'm not so sure... =D
This one I can also recognize as DC, because of the Capitol! =)
I forgot the significance of these bells here at the old post office, wikipedia to the rescue!
"Visitors can also view the Bells of Congress (also known as the Ditchley Bells). The bells are replicas of those at Westminster Abbey and were donated to the United States by the Ditchley Foundation as a bicentennial gift."

The Happiest Place on Earth!
Anaheim, CA
Where else is the happiest place on earth, but Disney! Disneyland to be exact! Hee-hee!
It's amazing there, even when it's pouring rain, there's still a ton of people there! Well, as you can see, I am one of those crazy people still walking around Disneyland even when it's raining! =D
You know how after going on the It's a small world ride you find yourself humming the tune way way after you've been on the ride? It's funny that most of the people I've asked who's been on the ride say the same thing! Haha! I think anyone who goes to Disney should go on It's a small world. For me, that is one of the rides there that says Disney! Hehehe! One time we visited Disney I couldn't believe it that It's a small world was closed for a renovation!!! =)
Of course, a visit to the Disneyland Resort is not complete without visiting California Adventure! I love the roller coaster that you can see in the picture! That is one of my favorite rides there!
Here's some of the rides/places that I like there. The 4D show at a Bug's Land is really good!
Here's a photo from the World of Color show at California Adventure. It was pretty good except that it was drizzling/raining that night and there was a little wind so some of the projections on the water look a little hazy, but otherwise, it was still good. This made me remember the Fantasmic show at Disneyland which we did not see because it was not running this time around. =)

More sea life!
Baltimore, Md
Hahaha! Yep, this is not sea life, but this is the area where we saw them, the National Aquarium at the inner harbor in Baltimore!
Still not sea life, but isn't it beautiful? =)
Finally, here's some sea life! Don't you just love looking at aquariums?!
I love the spotted sting ray in the photo!
Isn't the turtle looking up cute?
Some more interesting fishies...
And of course, sharks!
