My friend Myriah got free tickets from her Dad to go to the Monterey Bay Aquarium and invited me to go along. I was excited since it's been a really long time since I had been there. Here we are in front of the Aquarium.
They have a ton of different types of Jelly fish. They look so beautiful floating there behind the glass.
Here I am learning about Jelly fish stings and what to do to prevent them, quite interesting as you can tell.
Here's Myriah's cousin Mary who went with us holding up a plastic container filled with junk found in the belly of one baby albatross (large sea gull looking bird). The moral of the story: these birds are huge also don't litter you could be killing baby birds.
During our visit we listened to a presentation in the kelp forest during which they talked alot about the bad rep of sharks (here's a tiger shark we saw in another part of the aquarium) and how they really weren't that mean and that's really too bad they got such a bad rap....the next day in the paper however was an article about a great white attacking a surfer in Monterey...go figure.
One of my favorite parts of the aquarium was this cool hallway you can go into and a wave splashes over the glass above your head and it feels like you're inside a wave. It was a good time. The aquarium has really grown over the years and it was really interesting and a fun place to visit.
