Feeding the fish at Monterey Aquarium. |
I learnt so much about marine life, even though I am not particularly interested in the subject. I came away educated about which fish to eat and not - in terms of reducing pollution and helping with conservation, breeding, etc. I learned about jellyfish, sea otters, but more importantly, I came away wanting to know more!
The highlight was a talk about the fish that live out in the bay, which was given from inside a giant fish tank. As the presenter hand-fed fish, several sharks were circling her - see photo. Yes, that is right, she had a microphone inside her mask! As you can imagine, this talk drew a large crowd.
The place was massive, there must have been over a thousand people of all ages in there, and it was only a Monday lunchtime.
Next stop is Carmel - I just bought ticket to see a famous Irish folk/rock band, who are playing there tomorrow evening. Any guesses who they might be?
