Movie rec

Too tired to blog, but I did want to note March of the Penguins is a lovely movie, filled with beautiful, sweeping images of Antarctica (though beautiful, Antarctica has not dislodged Everest as the object of my ice affection). It's incredibly heart-warming and sweet and honestly, I had no idea penguins were so affectionate or their chicks so incredibly adorable. I highly recommend this film, though I caution you: the cuteness factor is very, very high and if you're like me -- I don't even like animals -- you'll so want to bring home a baby penguin -- or heck, even a Mom or Pop penguin -- by the time this movie rolls its end credit. Excellent documentary, type you'd see at an IMAX theatre, and very definitely family friendly.
