Some so-so footage of one of the seals we saw on today's outing. The seal is that black ball in the upper right portion of the frame. At about the 30 second mark he dives and you can see the shape of his body, which looks like a big fat black sausage. The footage isn't so great, but we were close enough that we could clearly make out his the features of his face, and could tell he was looking at us; probably as curious about us as we were about him!

We spotted Alice rollerblading around the Southampton Boat Show with a sign that said "Information: Stop Me and Ask!" So we did.

Our 2013 European boat show tour provided a lot of unexpected surprises: finding a relatively affordable one-man submarine, a hovercraft designed for kids, and the world's most powerful production PWC, to name a few. But one of the best finds wasn't a thing at all: it was Alice the Info Girl. We discovered Alice zooming around the show on a pair of roller-blades, equipped with a big sign that said "Information, Stop and Ask" and a FRS radio. She was also armed with a vast array of knowledge: how to get around the show, directions to different displays, and tips on numerous attractions. And if she didn't know the answer to your questions right off the top of her head, she'd call and find out. Now, she wasn't the only info-helper skating around the show. In fact, there was a troop of them blasting this way and that, helpfully answering questions from show-goers. And they all had one thing in common, which explains why they were so good on roller-blades. For the other info-bladers, this common thread wouldn't raise an eyebrow. But when it came to Alice... well, we'll let her explain for herself.
