Elephant joy

This morning in the Cologne zoo the elephant baby was finally born. The zoo has expected this birth since last October! Why did they get the timing so wrong? Apparently the elephant's keeper saw mum and dad get down to business one afternoon. So, when it became clear that she was pregnant the zoo assumed that it knew the day of conception. Maybe they should have installed the Elefantcam a little sooner and monitor night-time activities. You can now use it to have a look at the baby elephant. It's not yet clear whether it's a boy or a girl.

And now for something completely different: I have been running tonight for 80 minutes at a slow pace and my leg seems to be ok. If there is still no pain tomorrow, I will resume normal training. Fingers crossed.
