Ms. Rhem's Florida Field Trip To.. |

The Clearwater Marine Aquarium |

This weekend I visited the Clearwater Marine Aquarium in Clearwater, Florida.
This was a wonderful way to spend an afternoon and reasonably priced (8.75) for adults.
The Clearwater Marine Aquarium is a working aquarium that rescues,rehabilitates, and releases marine mammals, sea turtles, and river otters.
They are also commited to both public education and marine research.
The Clearwater Marine Aquarium also offers a whole host of opportunites to interact with the animals in selected classes, special holiday events and volunteer positions at the facility. |
