SEVERAL PUZZLES ON THE SHARK THEME COMING UP
Dover Publishing is the source of many of the sea-life and oceanic images that you see here on SIRENS LINK TO SEA BlogSpot. These images are free to use provided that your use is NOT FOR PROFIT. Coming up are several puzzles surrounding SHARKS.
We recently went to the AQUARIUM OF THE PACIFIC in Long Beach California, which is a non profit, and a place that has large and impressive tanks. Let's just say that if you are not one to travel and go snorkeling or scuba diving, an aquarium like this is your only opportunity to see what it's like to be under the ocean with the coral, starfish, octopus, lobsters, and so very many fish - including SHARKS look like, and there are also places where you can safely TOUCH the animals.

BLACK WAVE - A GRIPPING TRUE STORY ABOUT A FAMILY THAT TOOK TO THE SEAS and ENDED IN DISASTER : SIREN's BOOK REVIEW
John and Jean Silverwood loved the ocean and sailing, and so they worked hard, saved money, bought a fifty-five foot catamaran they named Emerald Jane, took their four children out of school for a two year sailing adventure. Their true adventure story is wonderfully written, an exciting page turner, but as the cover says, it ended in a disaster. Their catamaran was broken apart on a coral reef, and when the mast fell across John's legs, and almost severed one of them, he would beat death due to a rescue by isolated island people, but would loose his leg. In their very modern story is also enter twinned the story of the last ship that the same coral reef claimed in the 19th century and the 21st century invention that signaled to satellites in space to a rescue station in San Diego, even though they were in such an isolated area near French Polynesia that they were 250 miles away from the nearest island.
Part of my summer reading this year, you still have time before school starts to pick up this one and take the adventure with them.
