Aquarium of the Pacific--Oceanography Field Trip

On Tuesday of this week, Vanessa, Scotty, and I went to the Aquarium of the Pacific in Long Beach, CA.  As part of our Oceanography Class assignments, we have to do a certain amount of points for class activities, and one of them was to go to the aquarium.  We picked a day, planned things out, and went.  We had a 5 page handout with questions we had to answer, which we would find throughout the aquarium. We left for the aquarium around 9:30.  Scotty had volunteered to drive, and we kinda got alittle lost when we got down to Long Beach.  It was cool because we got to see some oil pump thingys and some docks where a big cargo ship was being unloaded.  The ship probably came from Asia. We finally got to the aquarium after a nice little drive though downtown, and we where able to park on the first floor of the parking structor.  There was no line to get the tickets, and there was not that many people at the aquarium.  It was nice because we could move at our own pase, and enjoy seeing
