It's a special ROM exhibition I wouldn't miss - #rombluewhale . . It was as surreal of an experience as when I swam with whale sharks back in 2012). Its both overwhelming and sad to get to see the largest mammal on earth in a museum. . Whales usually sink to the bottom of the ocean when they die. By this one washed up the shores of Newfoundland, Canada. So the scientists had the chance to study these blue whales. . . "We are tied to the ocean. And when we go back to the sea, whether it is to sail or to watch - we are going back from whence we came." -John F. Kennedy (at Royal Ontario Museum)
