They wanted the tira misu

ROME (Reuters) - About 60 newly hatched sea turtles lost their way during their ritual passage to the sea and marched into an Italian restaurant instead, a conservation worker said on Monday.

The baby turtles -- which ended up under the tables of startled diners at the beachside restaurant -- were probably thrown off track and lured by the eatery's bright lights, said Antonio Colucci, who was called to help rescue the group.

I love it that they "marched" into the restaurant. They didn't amble, they didn't mosey, they didn't make reservations, they just marched right in.

You go, baby turtles!!
