Wasn't real impressed with the place. Some old woman told me I couldn't take my Starbucks with a spill proof lid inside, was afraid I would Spill it in the Artificial Tide pool and kill a few sea cucumbers and maybe an urchin. How ridiculous, but petty tyrants exist. The Star Bucks Patrol is on the prowel! Roughly one-half of the exhibits (an entire WING) were about the Effects of Global Warming. Haha. They still believe in Al Gore's Hocky Stick -- fabricated 'evidence'. They probably got some big grant so long as they published the propaganda. HELLO, I think Fukashima Sea Radiation that's killing everything out there is a much bigger concern. There's some island in CA last weekend that had thousands of dead sea lions on it. Fisherman are coming back with nothing. While on San Diego Beaches, I didn't see a single fish in the water. And this Aquarium is worried about global warming!!! They had a bunch of hand crank exhibits that did nothing but generate some power to pump some water and light a lightbulb here and there. Just looked like the default dumping ground of science fair projects. There were a few nice aquariums inside that I liked, but I was hard to get around inside because of people leaving their strollers in the middle of the walkway while they walked up to the exhibits.
