Well, here is something fun for us to do. Go here and pick out a turtle to cheer on in the race from Costa Rica to the Galapagos Islands. It's like an effort to save the turtles. But I think it will just be fun to pick a turtle and see if yours wins. Don't take anyone else's turtle unless they have all been picked.

If you go to meet the turtles you see all the turtles and you can click on them and flip through there profile to see their specs. Then click cheer on and submit your name and email.

I took Turtleocity. :cool2: :pray: ;) :rofl: Gooooooooo turtle!!!!!! Mine is so gonna win!!!

This does look oodly fun! :crazy: I took Stephanie Colburtle, cause this turtle is extremely patriotic and flys through the water like an eagle. The Marine Corps logo includes an eagle also!!! May the best turtle win!!!

In an unusual turn of events today, Champiro, the turtle known for her stellar sense of direction, made a dive to 300 feet beneath the surface. Frontrunner Windy also plunged to 275 feet midday. They might have been snacking on jellyfish. To no one’s surprise, Hollywood starlet, Drexelina, got off to slow start after the paparazzi flashed photographs incessantly in her face at the starting line. Turtles are often disoriented by lights on the beach. Drexelina and Sundae are currently in last place.

Oh ! I am the last one... but what matters is the spirit of adventure ! ...lol...
