No you are not.

You are just a day time guest at the show itself. Everybody knows that the main attraction is the evening at the hotel, crowned with a traditional "Night of Whales".

Night of whales ditched on a beach you mean.:cry

Post by: mietla on March 05, 2006, 11:50:56 AM: Well yeah, that is a sad chapter in our tradition. Last year I could not make it and Airhead had some pains in his behind so neither of us showed up. As a result, the last year was a flop.

But this time, we intend to revive the tradition to its initial glory.
