Evidence of my Travels so far

Hi Sea Fans!


I just wanted to share this with you because I thought it's very cool.  I'm collecting badges as I travel the world from the aquariums and other facilities that I visit.  I may have trouble getting through security checks at the airport with all this metal (he he he)!

Thanks to everyone who's hosted me so far, you've all been amazing and I hope we've inspired a few up and coming marine biologists.

Have a great week Sea Fans.
Cheers

Jellyfish Ice Cream

Hi Sea Fans!

I couldn't believe this when I read it so I thought I'd pass it on for you all to read:

Glow-in-the-dark ice cream inspired by jellyfish!  Every lick makes it glow even more.  $225 a scoop though!
Photo: Lick Me Delicious (the creators of this ice cream)
The proteins in jellyfish have been recreated and put into this icy snack.

Happy Halloween!

Hi Sea Fans!

Well, this year was a fantastic year for dressing up for Halloween.  It seems that more and more people are getting into it...not for the bad stuff linked to it, but just for the fun of dressing up and for THE SWEETS!!! There's no such thing as too may sweets :) (Don't tell your mom I said that!)

Here are two aquarium exhibits that got into the mood:
Batfish Exhibit
Anybody need a new and interesting home for their worms?:)  Well done Pierre at Two Oceans Aquarium for this one.
 A seal that was loving the pumpkins:
Alaska Sea Life Centre
And some of my friends (aquarists) decided to go all out at work!:
This is one scary penguin feeder!
Artistic otter being instructed by a werewolf and witch.
Eek!  Careful if you're in THAT tunnel after dark! :)
Hope you all had a good one.

Attention all aquarists: Please start sending me your Christmas Aquarium pics so that I can start putting them on the blog for everyone to see what you're up to this year.

All readers: Why not send in your Christmas pics of you visiting your favourite local aquarium and I'll also post the pics here.

Have a great week Sea Fans.
Cheers for now!
Abby
