Yea, nothing like tidepools, no matter where you are. I gre up on the coast of NH/Me andused to love playing in the tidepools. Even there there was no end to the urchins, starfish and crabs you could find. Even though I moved to MN many years ago, I always make it a point when I go back to NH to take my kids and let them play in the tidepools as well.

Last summer I visitied my folks who retired to Clearwater, Fl. While wandering the beach I found a fully-grown queen angel washed up on the sand but still breathing. Although it must have been dying, I scooped it up, but it back in the surf, and it swam away! There is just nothing like those experiences. We can react with our tanks everyday but reacting with these animals in the wild is a whole different level.
