Olympic Duties Over, Michael Phelps Returns to Tank at Sea World
His Olympics completed, Michael Phelps has returned to entertaining visitors six times a day at Sea World in Orlando:
"Phelps, the 6'4", 200-pound aquatic mammal, and the first ever SeaWorld swimmer to be raised in captivity by foster swimmers (Mark Spitz and Dara Torres), was recaptured by trainer Bob Bowman in a hoop net baited with an entire Dutch apple pie following Phelps' final Olympic event last Sunday."
