Its been a Beary long time.......


This keyring/key chain is made by a German company called Lumibear. The design is by Elmar Flötotto and the original one is about two feet high and has a light inside...


Anyway I used to have one of these...maybe about 8 or 9 years ago now but it was stolen and since then i have been looking for the same colour and type.. finally found one in Fukuoka (
福岡市). Great
...............


Oh, and I know what you are thinking.....are those MORE penguins? Ermm well yes and since you want to see them so much, here they are :-)

The lesser known Ikebukuro Penguin



Went to the Sunshine 60 building in Ikebukuro a couple of weeks ago. I was interested in the aquarium there as they had a new attraction.. the penguin walk. The penguins walk along a path and you get to see them close up..

More details here

Unfortunately I didn't get there in time so I will have to see it next time. The aquarium itself is not bad, Enoshima is better though...



I saw the penguins in their regular enclosure, these are genuine Ikebukuro Penguins... well not really they are African Penguins..... if you love penguins like me then you can check them out on a 24 hour web camera at the aquarium. Enjoy
