Some minimalist responses to your minimalist trip report:
(I'm hoping you'll still do the long, chatty trip report when you have time and energy.)
I'm glad you enjoyed the Asian Art Museum. That was a discovery we made simply because we'd bought the CityPass; we probably would have overlooked it otherwise, which would have been an absolute shame.
Amusing traveling exhibit note: we saw the Geisha exhibit at the Peabody Essex Museum in Salem; now it's in SF. We saw the Art Deco exhibit in SF; it's now at the MFA in Boston. (We'll probably go to see it again now that it's in town. For that matter, any Worldcon attendees who want to see it?) Side note to this: the new PEM is beautiful, and Boston visitors who have an afternoon or more to spare should head up to Salem.
The sea lions are cool (though smelly) and I still wish they were back at their old stomping grounds at Seal Rocks, instead of lying on man-made floats behind tacky souvenir shops....
