Academy of Sciences



Had a day out with my sis and mom yesterday and my mom wanted to check out the Academy of Sciences. I went there when I was alot younger but I dont remember much at all. Honestly I could have spent the whole day in there. The rainforest section was amazing. They had a ton of different live animals on display and living in the rain forest and butterflies flying everywhere. I actually reached my hand out into the air and one flew onto my wrist. It may sound cheesy but it was fucking magical. The butterfly was just chillin on my wrist for a minute then he flew away. After this exhibit we took an elevator down into the lower level where the aquarium was. Omfg. At certain points you were under the tank and you could see the different types of fish swimming around you. The bottom floor was huge and they had a bunch of smaller tanks with different types of sea life. It was really really cool. I also saw the penguins in the African section, they looked pretty sad though =(. Last but not least we watched the 30 minute planetarium show. It was amazing. Very eye opening and gave alot of insight on how stars are created and how everything came to be. Sorry for the brief post but if I write about everything that I witnessed and felt there, this post would be about 3 pages long. Its definitely something that you have to see to understand. So go check it out and enrich your mind.
