New Yrok Aquarium

On my son's 6th birthday, we went to New York Aquarium, in Brooklyn NY.

We saw a lot of fish, corals and their inhabitants at Glover's reef.
An alien stingers featured a variety of jellyfish, that looked like not from this world.
Sea Cliff had walruses, otters, penguins, whom you can watch from above and then go downstairs to get an underwater perspective.
Sharks exhibitions had sharks, stingrays and giant sea turtles.
There was also a place where you could pet a horseshoe crab or a starfish.

Seahorse
It started as a very hot day, that changed to a rainy one.
Due to the rain and mostly thunders, sea lion show/feeding was canceled.
Their Planet Earth: Shallow Seas 4-D Experience - had experienced air conditioner malfunction, so we got an open tickets till the end of this year to come back.
