Tam and Kristen (12) in Ottawa, Canada.


If I am actually going to go in the water then I prefer a pool. I have a paranoia about fish in the water "touching" me. But if I was just going to be in up to my ankles and "hanging out", then I like the ocean.

Tracy here, DH Brian, DD Jordyn (12), DSD Christian (8) and DD Emma (14 weeks). We live in Central Texas.

The answer depends, I am not a big swimmer at all, if we're here in Texas I'd rather be in the house in the A/C because of the heat. Never been to the ocean, but if I were still in Michigan I'd rather be at the lake.

Have you been to the Biloxi/Gulfport region since after Katrina?

We had gone at the end of June and the end of July, 2005. End of June, we went to the Gulfport Oceanarium which was completely demolished and end of July, we had gone on an oyster schooner that was docked by Corky's on the water. Corky's was completely washed away (they took the schooners out to sea, so they fared well). The casinos were just in ruins. It was so devastating to see the footage of the areas we had just seen. Much so like New Orleans.

No, we have not been since Katrina. Everyone says "Come back, it's just like it was before Katrina" Well, we'll see next time we're back there. The last time we were down ther we went to Ship Island, which I'm sure disappeared in Katrina. Had you been there? We had a blast that day! We were actually ther over the 4th of July, my birthday, and had a hotel facing the beach. We went on the early cruise to Ship Island so we could be back in time to go to dinner and see the fireworks. We were thinking that we were going to go down to the beach and watch the fireworks and just hang out. Wrong! By the time we left to go to Ship Island, there were all these idiots already down on the beach setting off battle rockets from their hands and everything! Needless to say, we did just fine up on our balcony at the hotel with a cooler! Could see better from

Linda in southern Ontario with dh, Alex, Rachel and Matthew. I would rather swim in a pool. Second choice would be the ocean and then a lake.
