The Aquarium

On Friday, we went to the aquarium. I had a great time. First, we went through the shark area and saw some cnidarians. We saw jellyfish swimming and some coral reefs too. Then, we finally got to the sharks. In the tunnel, we saw sharks swim over and around us. It was so cool. My group got to the hippos and it smelled SO bad. It smelled like poop. The sign said that birds poop every fifteen minutes. Isn't that crazy? There was also seals, penguins, and piranhas. I thought piranhas would have big sharp teeth and be really scary but they weren't. That surprised me. There were all types of different sharks and fish too. There were areas were you could touch animals but we didn't have enough time to do that. Still, I had so much fun! I can't wait till we go on another field trip!
