Whale Stuck in River Thames ...

So apparantly, there's a nice whale that swam all the way from the open sea and INTO London. It ended up in the very busy River Thames, swimming past all the famous tourist spots, like Big Ben, Tate Modern, London Eye etc

It's kinda like a whale appearing at the Chao Phraya river in Bangkok or Boat Quay area in Singapore.

I visited River Thames when I was in London in 2001 - it's filled with all kinds of boats going in both directions.

Sad part was that the whale was apparantly too overstressed and died whilst it was bring transported by volunteers back to the ocean.
