There has been so much happening recently that I knew I need to get back to sharing all my experiences with those who follow me
On Wednesday it was my birthday. The family made me a homemade pumpkin pie. I got a cute card from the kids. That evening Miriam, the mother, took me out to dinner with her sister. We went to a Tavern place I cant remember the name. It was amazing and I loved the food. I got prime rib and I got a virgin drink; it was just a lemonade. I was able try cream of crab soup and it was amazing. I loved it. I liked it since I've never tried it before.

Friday I got the opportunity to go to the aquarium with a friend (name friend, guy? girl?). It was so much fun. We saw all kind of fish and sea animals. The National Aquarium houses several exhibits including the Upland Tropical Rain Forest, a multiple-story Atlantic Coral Reef, an open ocean shark tank, and Australia: Wild Extremes, which won the "Best Exhibit" award from the Association of Zoos and Aquariums in 2008. The aquarium also has a 4D Immersion Theater.
The aquarium opened a marine mammal pavilion in 1990 and currently holds eight Atlantic bottle nose dolphins. There was different floor levels with animals on each.
Level 1: Blacktip Reef
It contains 65–70 species, mostly fish (including blacktip reef sharks). One of the largest animals in the exhibit is Calypso, a 500-pound green sea turtle.
Level 2: Maryland: Mountains to the Sea
This level features animals that are native to Maryland.
Level 3: Surviving Through Adaptation On this level the fish possess adaptations that are needed to survive in their various environments. For example, the electric eel has the rare ability to shock its prey with electricity.
Level 4: Sea Cliffs, Kelp Forest, Pacific Coral Reef, Amazon River Forest
The displays include several aquatic habitats, including a sea cliffs exhibit, which houses several species of seabirds; a Pacific coral reef exhibit; a kelp forest exhibit; and an Amazon River forest exhibit, in which animals can be seen down in the water and up in the overlying foliage.
Level 5: Upland Tropical Rain Forest, Hidden Life
The Amazon rain forest comes to life with this level. It includes two elevated platforms for bird-watching and a cave of various glass enclosed displays of reptiles, amphibians, and terrestrial arthropods.
Shark Alley: Atlantic Predators
Dolphin Discovery
This exhibit houses the aquarium's eight Atlantic bottle-nose dolphins.
Jellies Invasion: Oceans Out of Balance
This temporary exhibit in the Pier 4 Pavilion building showcases nine different species of jellyfish.
On Saturday was my ward's Thanksgiving auction. I got to have a traditional Thanksgiving meal. We had a regular thanksgiving food. The people in the ward are super nice and will donate their time and efforts towards things. We did an auction for the House of Ruth and that was fun. The House of Ruth Maryland is one of the nation's leading intimate partner violence centers, helping thousands of battered women and their children find the safety and security that so many of us take for granted.
Sunday was amazing I got a prayer answered that I've been needed answered for a while. I had an amazing spiritual experience on Sunday. The lesson that was given was an answer to my prayers
