  1. This trip was amazing and informal about many aquatic animals. We saw a California sea lion show and saw many types of fish, too. There were penguins, jellyfish, seals, and turtles as well. It was a lot of fun and after the NY Aquarium, we went to the Coney Island beach which was also a great aspect of the trip!

  2. The trip to the aquarium was awesome. We looked at different fish and other aquatic creatures like jellyfish, sharks, walruses, seals, turtles, seahorses, and more. We saw the sea lion show which was nice because I haven't seen it in a long time. It was great that we were able to visit the beach before leaving.

  3. I agree with Shahrin this trip was really great. Personally my two favorite parts were the sea lion show and the Coney Island beach! Mrs. Lindsay one day I need to go with you and show you the snake girl!

  4. Shahrin is right. We learned about many aquatic animals. I am glad I went. The difference between sea lions and seals is the flipper. Also, sea lions are very flexible. Sharks can benefit us because it is used in medicines.

  7. This trip was probably my favorite trip. I had fun looking at the animals and we learned a lot. The difference between sealions and seals are that seals have ear flaps and sealions don't. I would want to go there again for the shows and to look at some animals that we may have not seen.
