Travel Video of the Week #007 – Stop Motion Love in Rome

My friend Matt (check out his blog) who has been living it up eating Pintxos and working in a hostel in San Sebastian in Spain put me onto this video. I’m trying to convince him to do a guest post on his experiences in San Sebastian (I just haven’t told him yet, how about it Matty?).

That’s what happened to this guy, and it’s an incredible video. The sheer size of Blue Whales is phenomenal, in fact it’s the largest known mammal to have ever existed – it’s bigger then any of the dinosaurs were. Sizing in at...
