Sharks on a Saturday

Happy Fall, peeps.



Could you die or what?  That picture is so cute.  Most of the pics I get of her look more like this.





Yes, she is chewing on the pumpkin; it's the only hope I had to get a shot.  Notice she is keeping a close eye on me.  And on her spotted buddy, the stingray.

Today we went to the Denver Nature and Science Museum to watch a 3D/IMAX documentary on Great White Sharks.  It was great!  For those of you who haven't done a shark cage, this is very close to the experience; phenomenal underwater shots that are clear (not jerky, murky, or overly assertive).  You can even hear toddlers screaming in the background.  Oh wait, that was just the movie.  **sigh**  Restless, screechy babies and toddlers in a documentary about preserving Great White Sharks?  Why, people?  Why?

I would recommend the film, though.

It featured the Great White Shark Project we toured in South Africa!  They are credited as one of the most effective protectors of sharks today.  A few of our own pics to jar the ol' memory...

Then we came home and ate some of this to celebrate the end of summer.  Bring on the fall.
