    Hey MP when are you coming? I'll send you a list of gelato spots. My husband is a gelato-maniac. Oh, and check these guys out: http://cleanhotdry.com/ There is quite a coffee culture in town now.

    DO go to the aquarium. I've been to many aquariums and it's the one I feel best in. I love the way it uses entertainment to sneak up education about marine life on people. Great stuff for kids (hands-on with a sea cucumber anyone?). It's truly involved with conservation. And it's run by a combination of staff (350) and volunteers (over 600).

    I'll keep you updated.

    Thanks Grog! That is really amazing -- they are so beautiful to watch! I just spent more than 10 minutes on Beluga Cam! Forwarded it to a bunch of people via email.

    Is that a fairly small area they have them in right now? What a great opportunity for you -- wonderful volunteer work. Enjoy!

    Oh, how cool!!

    I first saw a Beluga at an aquarium in CT a few years back and I was entranced by them. I could have stayed there watching that tank all day but the kids we brought with us wanted to move on. They are so beautiful and unique looking!

    I can't do the live cam at work, but I'm definitely going to check that out tonight when I get home. Thanks for sharing!

    Come and visit! Are you still a member?

    You should see Tiqa (for those who don't know: the 1-year-old beluga born last year). I think she's become a teenager all of a sudden: she's forgotten everything about her mother (whom she was swimming with all the time until yesterday morning) and swims about two meters away from the baby and Aurora all the time. I wonder what's going on in her beluga head...
