Go Catch A Fish 'THIS BIG'

Today and tomorrow only, Aquarium of the Bay at Pier 39 is playing host to a 25-foot-long, two-ton salmon called "Fin." It's part of the traveling road show by an organization called "Save Our Wild Salmon" that hopes to curtail the depletion of endangered salmon in the Northwest by building support to remove the four lower Snake River dams in Washington State. The road show, called "Extinction Stops Here!" has in recent days been in Marin, Vallejo, Oakland, and Berkeley.

If you're looking for something to do with the kiddies, they might get a kick out of the ginormous fish, as well as the educational mural/interactive exhibit within Fin's interior.

How funny....I saw this thing heading Southbound on 101 about to head into the Waldo tunnel. Definitely did a doubletake.
