...and a refrigeration unit. It's gonna get a little warm there in Houston for a penguin as a pet.

Hey Amy, I know the Shedd in Chicago does penguin meets!! I'm sure you could find info. about it online!

Once we were inside the penguin habitat it did smell fishy, but Kobe alone did not.

It can be a little fishy smelling when they give you a bucket of fish to feed them. Once the penguins see you with that bucket, they are NOT shy at all! You become they're best friend in the world!

Sounds like Cast Connection behind the MK. Do you remember if that was it or not?

I don't remember the name, it reminded of being like a trailer though, does that sound familiar?!

Still kinda sounds like Cast Connection. Do you remember the if you had to park to get there and if so was it surrounded by chain link fence?

BB - Same here. I'm sorry we're going to miss you & b-dude dive. That's the only time we have available to go to DHS and see the Osborne Lights. I wish we had more than 2.5 days down there!
