Naomi had an Osher Lifelong Learning Institute (OLLI) Class in Berkeley. I wanted to find something unusual to do for the two hours she would be in class. I Googled museums in Berkeley & discovered the Museum of Vertebrate Zoology in the Valley Life Sciences Building (VLSB) on the Cal campus. Vertebrate zoology was my favorite college biology course. The only problem was that I didn’t phone ahead. When I arrived, I found that the museum is not open to the public. But, between the departments of Zoology & Paleontology on the 3rd & 4th floors, there some wonderful exhibits to view. Before & after, I walked around the Cal campus. Later we met some friends at a pop-up Hawai’ian music event in the Tonga Room In the Hills of the Claremont Hotel, for cocktails & pupus.
