Last friday was Scripps Day, which is a day (heh) to celebrate all things Scripps. Among other things, this meant that the SIO pier was open for to the public. I along with the rest of the group I work with (well, those present) went to check it out. The weather could not have been more perfect!

The above photo shows most of SIO, the building I work in is underneath (visually in the image) the large crane.

This next view is looking south (ish) toward the rest of La Jolla (my hometown).

The aquarium was also open for viewing.

Here are some more pictures if you aren’t already convinced that La Jolla and Scripps is awesome.



If you are interested in what I’m actually doing at SIO (on not Scripps Day), it involves collecting all the data I can find from a German icebreaker, RV Polarstern. Hopefully it will go online soon.
That is all for now I guess.
