It's been raining and we can't go outside. Well, we don't really like to drive in the rain because of the traffic and well, the rain.  What to do for a field trip? Hmmm...Virtual Field Trips, Live Webcam Feeds and Online Tours can help.  We usually grab candy, popcorn and a spot on our couch to watch and explore. However, we have found an aquarium, several museums, a volcano and a zoo who share their facility online for the purpose of educational fun.  We are sharing a list of online tours, virtual field trips and webcams that can bring you fun and joy this winter season.  Stay warm and cozy while going on a field trip....from your couch.  Animal Plant Shark Webcam  http://www.apl.tv/sharks.htm Aquarium of the Pacific - Penguin Habitat below water: 100 Aquarium Way, Long Beach, CA 90802 (562) 590-3100 http://www.aquariumofpacific.org/exhibits/penguin_habitat/penguin_cam_below Italy - Museo Galileo - Visit Leonardo Da Vinci paintings and writings.  http://ww
