September 28

We are currently in Crescent City, CA, we arrived here yesterday after a long drive of just over 50 miles.  We have had great weather, along the coast there was some fog.  Last night was neat with the full moon having a total lunar eclipse.  I tried to take a few pictures but failed to get any that turned out.
Today we were out touring the area of Crescent City, CA, our first stop was Ocean World.
This was a great Aquarium, and it was almost as good as Sea World.
 I tried to get some what of a group photo but, failed at this too, in the future we will have to work on this a little bit better.
Here are a few of the wonderful women on this trip.
 This was a touchy feely pond with star fish and sea amenities.  It was neat watching them when you touch them


 Next we headed down stair to view the sea life under water.
 Anchovies which they raise for feed here at the Aquarium. 
 This is a blow shark, they fill there bodies with air and then when a predictor come near them they bark like a dog.

 Here Teresa is touching a blow shark.
 SOme of us never grow up and just got to get into the picture.

 Then there are some of us that just enjoy the view.
 We seen the harbor seals perform for us along with a sea lion.



She jump from the water up to this plat form

She was amazing at the trick she done.
We also went to a all volunteer Marine Mammal Center which rescues sea mammals from the  the area beaches.  They only had two seals there now, but have had a lot of pups that were abandon by there mothers this year.  They think it is because the feed is so far out in the sea.  It has been a pretty good day and looking forward to tomorrow with our trip down 101 and stopping at the Trees of Mystery and lunch on our way at Samoa Cookhouse.  hope to have some great pictures from the Trees of Mystery.
