Kevin and I spent a wonderful afternoon in Monaco at le Musée Océanographique. The museum was founded in 1910 by Prince Albert I. The aquarium is considered to be one of the best in the world, and it is really quite amazing! It is situated right on the ocean, and it uses a system that pumps fresh salt water directly from the sea into the tanks. The museum is completely dedicated to the evolution of oceanography. Check it out at: http://www.oceano.mc/ Très intéressant!

Ah, reminds me of Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea, (Vingt mille lieues sous les mers), by Jules Verne!
Say hi to Captain Nemo, and mate Kevin for me.
