Humboldt Penguin
Tuesday, December 15, 2009
A very popular tourist attraction around here is Marineland in Antibes. As the name implies, this is a marine animal park similar to SeaWorld in the United States, but on a smaller scale (even though they, too, have killer whales, dolphins, a shark tunnel, sea lions, and penguins). Today, about sixty of us went there with our boss who treated us for a Christmas lunch. As a fringe benefit we got to walk around the park and see some of the shows. I hadn’t been there in years, so this was a welcome opportunity to reacquaint myself with the attractions and find out about those that had been added since my last visit. Today’s picture shows a Spheniscus humboldti in his pond which you can visit here: 43° 36.833'N, 7° 7.509'E. Enjoy your virtual tour of Marineland...
