The California Academy of Sciences

Last week, we went to the California Academy of Sciences in San Francisco.
This museum is in the Golden Gate Park. My mom says it is one of the best museums in the world!

San Francisco from the Bay Bridge

When we arrived, the first thing we saw was a T-Rex skeleton! It is so big!

Reef Lagoon

This man is a diver. He was showing us a little shrimp in the reef.

The Academy has different sections. You can see the aquarium, the Rainforests, the planetarium, and the penguin exhibit. Before we came to the Aquarium section, we went to the planetarium to watch an imax movie about Life. It was a little scary and long for me. 

The Aquarium

The Aquarium was fun. It was sooooo big. The fish were very colorful. 

a tiny little reef eel

He looks like he is kissing the sand.

                        

She is the diver!

We are touching starfish here!! There are 6 different kinds of starfish in this touch pool.
The starfish are bumpy and hard. And the water is cold. 

 

Living Roof

On the roof of the museum, they plant plants there. It looks beautiful for a picnic.

SKULLS

 This is the Skull wall!

The Penguins!

The penguins were very cute! They loved us a lot. They swam to us and played with us.

Are you earthquake ready?

Here we played a game about what to do if there was an earthquake. 

Fossils

These fossils belong to different animals.  Can you see a "poo" fossil?

 

Late lunch

We ate lunch at 3 pm! We were too excited about the museum and couldn't eat lunch on time. 

It was a very cool place. I recommend you to visit this museum!
