New globe/new ocean

This is the new globe we recently purchased with memorial money and guess why we decided we needed one? Do you know we now have 5 main oceans on Earth? Some of our local students were doing their homework in the library and were asked to list all five of the world oceans. Now most of you will readily name off the Pacific Ocean, the Atlantic Ocean and the Arctic Ocean and don't forget the Indian Ocean but do you know what the 5th one is? If you say the Antarctica you're close but not correct. We now have the Southern Ocean which is in the southern hemisphere. This new globe actually shows that ocean as well as showing pictures of Columbus's 3 sailing ships to America and other historical ships. This globe is a wonderful addition to the library and worth looking at when visiting as there are other unique features to be found on it.

May everyone traveling this winter have a safe trip.
