But Baby, It's Cold Outside


With the cold weather that seems to never end (and some chance of snow tomorrow!!), I keep thinking about the  Penguins in the Edinburgh Zoo.  Daily they parade from one end of their exhibit to the other--only the ones that want to go, mind you-- and people line up to watch.  They are amazing and quite curious about us as we are of them.  I just don't get how they can be just fine in the freezing temperatures, including being able to swim!

If you listen to the keeper, you can learn all sorts of stuff about the king penguins who paraded for us.  You have to ignore the crying child in the foreground--though he was crying because he was quite cold.  I was crying on the inside...
