I'm glad the trip was relatively calm. And you got to see pelicans, which are adorable.

I rented teh dvd version of "Winged Migration," and it had a "making of" segment in it. TO film the migrating birds, they raised several birds from each of the species they would film, and led them on their first migration. The migrating is stressful, and a few of the pelicans developed nervous tummies... they were so affectionate and sweet, and they wanted their human mommies to hold them in their laps and reassure them when they were sick. They were the most huggable birds to work with, apparently.

You have an awful lot of people to visit while you're over there, so I won't keep you any longer, peering at your computer screen.

I'm fairly certain I'd not seen pelicans before. They were pretty nifty.

If I were staring at my computer screen, I probably would be about to spend lots of time online, but it's someone else's machine, so not today. You needn't worry.
