They still have the huge touch/look down tank in the first room? I always get jelly of that thing when I see it!

Yes it was a neat experience. The touch tank was still there too. I think everyone particularly liked the pencil urchin that gropes you with its pencils when you touch it.

Merriam Webster wrote:
grope verb \ˈgrōp\
groped grop·ing
Definition of GROPE

intransitive verb
1: to feel about blindly or uncertainly in search <grope for the light switch>
2: to look for something blindly or uncertainly <grope for the right words>
3: to feel one's way

I think it fits rather nicely, though hug describes it rather well, if someone with pencils for arms were to hug you (in a very feely manner).

Well this is enlightening.. I never pondered the gropoing abilities of pencil sea urchins..

so what does a starfish do when it wraps around your hand?

She came up when I typed in well deserved loving, and she looked super thrilled. I just watched her video on youtube and it was very boring.... I do not recommend.
