Monterey Bay Aquarium
 
There is a great show on now about the great white on National Geographic.

Aw man! I don't get that channel with my old-school cable. Man I gotta upgrade to digital soon.

I got to see her, went down in 2004 :) Cutest little thing (inasmuch as the term can be used here ... even at a tiny 3'-4' she looked like white death with those teeth).

Pics didn't turn out so good though. Human eyes could adjust to the dimness of the tank but cameras not so much. And flashes were a no-no (not that a flash would help in a million gallon tank anyhow).

It was an awesome show. About letting her go back to the ocean after she started to eat her tankmates...

It's not much to look at :( But these are the only pics I was able to grab of her in which you can vaguely recognize a shark shape silhouette. Lots-o-imagination needed, best I could do though :lol:

Almost kinda pointless to post the pics. They're so bad. :( Bummer, sorry.

You saw her. That's the coolest.

I did not see the shark but I have been to the Monterey Aquarium........ very cool place. I would definately visit it again.

Cheers,
