I've always liked Penguins.  I don't really know why.  Part of it came from the movie "Billy Madison", and part from drinking Budice back in the day.  But I always liked them as a kid as well.  And I always wanted to meet a penguin.  I finally figured out how to do it.

Yesterday I went to the Newport Aquarium near Cincinnati and got to meet and pet and hang out with real African Penguins.  It was completely awesome.

I took a ton of pictures and this link should take you to them on my fb page.

 
And a link to a 7 video YouTube playlist of the cute little bastards:
 
 
 
I highly recommend checking out the Newport Aquarium if you are near it.  And do the penguin encounter.  You have to buy tickets onlione before-hand, and it is a little expensive, but for me, it could not have been more worth it.
 
On another quick note, my GT used to be "CoolPengwn", now it's just "ThePengwn".  I just wanted something different.

Hahahaha, yep.  My friends call me Charlie pretty often.  Always Sunny is great.  Some of my other hobbies include magnets.

The main tour was ok, but the penguin encounter is awesome.  And you can do it without doing the main tour.  I'm definitely going to do it again sometime.  My sister wants to go with me next time.

Got a strange coincidence for ya...I work with Frank4000.  I saw you on his friend's list when I added him.  He says "Hi".

Nice...Tell him and Queen hello.  I mostly stick to Halo and have not played with them in a while...they were fun to play with back in the day before they started playing all this crazy stuff :)
