Dear Terriann:
    Great to hear of all the terrific and unusual places to breastfeed: in a
helicopter over the Grand Canyon and the top of a canyon. Wow!There should be
Olympic events : slalom nursing, downhill nursing, cross-country nursing!
Singles and doubles too!!
    I too breastfed in a parade. Plus my 2 1/2 year old breastfed while I was
contra-dancing in an exhibition in front of the lieutenant-governor and a
bunch of other officials of New York State at a bicentennial celebration. The
rest of the dancers were so used to me nursing that it made them feel more
comfortable in front of the huge audience. Talk about an opposite reaction,
where public nursing made people more comfortable! Even got my picture in the
newspaper. It looks like I am holding Vanessa as I dance, no one can tell in
the picture what I am doing. But the dance company knew!
    Where else have people nursed that is a little outside the ordinary?
    Let's all have fun bragging.
    Warmly,
Nikki Lee RN, MSN, Mother of 2, IBCLC, CIMI
