Catch fish and Aquarium of the Pacific

Toady field trip all about marine organism that was amazing!First,we went to a very "shabby" boat,not vey nice but very cool.....we sat here and ships have been shaking ,every body felt so nausea.We helped pirates(just kidding,worker who work in the ship)catch fish which is a very terrible thing because the didn't let us eat it!We were very hard to catch fish,and pulled a rope together.And then they just told us some knowledge about fishes,I must to say nobody want to listened it.We just want to eat food!Next,we had a lunch together,rigorous said is picnic.Every one just had two breads with turkey that so free rein.BUT!THE ONLY NICE THING FOR ME IS Aquarium of the Pacific.
Do you think that is us ship?

.....HEHE.No way,that is us ship.

The aquarium of the pacific is truly a world class aquarium. The displays are extraordinary. Who can resist the shark petting pools? My personal favorite are the tide pool displays complete with rushing water and waves, and the jellyfish, which look nothing short of otherworldly. I could go on and on. There's something new to discover around every bend, and it's all exquisitely beautiful.We headed over the the sea lion tank as they are my favorite! Spent a good amount of time here watching them swim, and taking tons of photos. Some little boy was in front of me and left his stuffed penguin sitting on the glass while he was taking photos. One of the seals came swimming right up to the glass to look at the penguin so we got some really good photos! There was your regular fishes, corals, crabs, etc. they had their sharks and sting ray petting area. Most of the lines to touch anything were kind of long, but I didn't want to touch anything anyways. Turn off was having to pay extra to see a little movie, it was only 4$ but I don't see other amusement park type place charging for shows after already paying admission, especially when there isn't much to see to begin with. I think I can spend all day long stay in here or with my friends.

The Ronald Reagan Presidential library and museum

My first time visiting The Ronald Reagan Presidential Library.... at this very special day, 20th of August!!And I am going to tell guys something about the Ronald Reagan Presidential Library.The Ronald Reagan Presidential Library opened in 1991,in Simi Valley,CA.The building was designed in a style similar to that of the designed in a style similar to that of the Spanish missions of California.The Library accomplishes it's objective. It tells the story of the life and times of President Reagan in an interesting and engaging way.He was a man who lived a full life and his time in front of the camera helps tell his story in entertaining visuals. There is so much to see at the library.


President Reagan's tomb is nice, albeit humble. The headstone itself is blocked by a brass railing, as it should be. To the left of the tomb is another bench seat that has a small garden behind it, courtesy of Reagan friends George & Mrs. Abbott, along with a host of others.The grounds are absolutely beautiful to stroll around and the mountain views are amazing! There are benches to sit on ... and in the back near his grave is a piece of the Berlin Wall. I think even Democrats would love the historical value of the place. ^_^ To the right of the tomb is a large circular feature of grass + a walkway, as well as a bust of the president and a piece of the Berlin Wall. To the far, far right is an F-14 Navy fighter jet, of which I thought was really, really cool. Because,In contrast, visiting and walking through Air Force one is an inspiring highlight by all means of the imagination and the plane does not disappoint. It is showcased in the most fantastic of ways and brought goosebumps to my arm when I first laid my eyes on it.

One of the darkest part of the Reagan story is the assassination attempt and this is presented in a jarring and dramatic fashion. The little ones were truly affected at this part and it does remind the visitor that the attack put his life in real jeopardy and that others risked and lost so much in their duty to protect the Commander in Chief.
And then they do have an interesting display which shows the actual suit that was cut off Reagan at the hospital after he was shot. You can see the bullet hole circled. That was really something to see! The exhibit also features notes he wrote to family members in the hospital when he couldn't talk such as 'surprisingly, not feeling hungry.
Final,they have his suit from the 'Tear down this wall' speech as well as a copy of his speech where you can see his hand written notes, including a unique system he used for phrasing (which I have since adopted in my public speaking). You see his Cowboy hat and saddle and boots.There was also a baseball exhibit featuring Babe Ruth's fur coat, travel trunk, silk robe, etc. Many game worn uniforms (mostly from the Brookyln Dodgers) and a Honus Wagner baseball card, which is the most valuable card.
I very enjoy this free trip,as much as possible know lots of information about American President. Sometimes as a Chinese know different culture is a very joyful thing.

Universal Studios HollyWood

Today,we went to the Universal Studios.That is a very joyful thing for me.I have to been there before,with my family.This time is my first time go to there with my classmates.
Fist at all,we all went to the house of horrors.That is so scary for me because I never see the movie about ghost before.I THINK WILL GONE DIEAD IN THERE!I walked very careful,followed to Chelsea.(fine.she even younger than me)We went to a dark house,many tourist and Ghosts in there.I felt my heart fly in the sky ,I don't want to see ghosts face-come on.The most scary thing is some ghost will touch you when you cried so loudly.One of ghost touch Kristy's ankle.I just heard one thousand decibels scream.I didn't see that ghost face clear because I  always lower the head.And If I heard somewhere people cried,I will stop.So,I didn't see any ghosts face,just a ghost blow in my face.I felt my whole person is broken.In the house of horrors,I just thought"Where is the export?"After that,we went to a very sweet game"Minion Mayhem"this is a perfect game for me-Banana~~~We are very excited to go there,and we didn't have arranged very long line.This game is called 3D-RID,but felt like to set at rollercoaster.All game about MINION MAYHEM that in Gru's home,you and another little tiny yellow people to help a girl together.In this story,we will through the horror of machineI felt I am a Cartoon character.














I have a very fun day at Universal Studios.I don't know how can I write another things(In fat,play hard and need to writ hard that's not a cool thing!)...If I have another interesting ideas,I will finished the ending.SEE U,don't miss me so much.















ps:when I play mummy's feeling



















bye!

California Science center

"We are going to the science center!"I scream with excitement.
I never went to there before,even I wen to lots of art museum..but I really want to go to the science place.As we arrive,hundreds of people walk toward the museum.We wonder what Endeavour will look like!And then,all students together went to the  Endeavour.As we walk under  Endeavour  wings,we can see the many heat shield tiles that protect her from the high temperatures generated when reentering Earth's atmosphere form space.She is magnificent,that everyone is "aching".
I dream about how this enormous shuttle has carried astronauts,and I wonder what it would haven been like to be part of the crew,to eat,sleep,and work inside.Then,a voice whispers"Thanks for your visit,Violet."What is that?I ask myself."It's me,Endeavour"Her voice is kind and gentle,"Come join me on the journey I have traveled."I look at my clothes,now that a blue flight suit,the kind astronauts wear.Then the world begins to fade.All that is left is Endeavour and me.It is pitch black with millions of stars ,and Earth is far below.But i am not afraid.Floating in space is fun!Now I know what it feels like to be in microgravity.
"Violet!WHAT WRONG WITH U!"Luna said."I just imagine that I was a astronaut."I said really slowly. "Do you see all students go to see IMAX?,follow me please."
Then, I saw that science movie which movie is so realistically.I saw millions and millions of stars,all clustered together,make what look like the two hazy clouds.And I think engineer is so amazing who believe that humans should explore space.
That's field trip pretty funny because I know a most famous space shuttle.

BTW:Growing up us Chinese,I never dreamed of becoming a pilot and especially not an astronaut.My mom and dad both always told me that I could do anything.I wanted if I studied hard,dreamed big,and never let anyone tell me what I could and couldn't do.But,I saw to much thing about universe and shuttle toady,I think just dream your dreams,and make them happen.Maybe,one day  I am an astronaut.>_<
