That’s D! She’s my tank co-pilot.

Forgot to mention this: I’m sure everybody who has seen Finding Dory remembers this scene with the sea lions fighting over space on a small rock. Our best guess is that this was inspired by this small rock just outside the MBA cafe windows. It’s very likely the folks from Pixar sat and had lunch with this view.

Thanks to everyone who made this happen! Amazing experience for my first time at the aquarium and so glad I was able to be a part of it.
