Day Tripping: Sea Lion Reacue. Oceans and Animals

On our first day of homeschooling we went to our moms work. As we are driving home my mom remembers about a rescue for sea lions. The rescue was called friends of the sea lions, at the Pacfic Marine Mammal Center in Laguna Beach. After a while we were parked in the parking lot of the sea lion rescue. We had not been there for a year or two when we first went with some friends. We enter the sea lion rescue. We see a gigantic whale bone right when we walk up. We find the cutest sea lions in the WORLD. All of them were so very cute. Some of the people that work there lead us up a small staircase. From the top we look over the edge and see a huge sea lion with a few gashes on his body. We all felt so bad for the poor sea lion. We walk down the staircase and they show us something very sad. It was a big jar filled with all of the fishing hooks and weights that were on the big sea lions body when they found him. All of the sea lions there had injuries and wounds. There was one sea lion that had been blind. It was the only sea lion that had a toy. The blind sea lion was blind in only the left eye. After learning the dangers of many things that have hurt sea lions we had to head back home. I would say it's a great way to spend your first day of homeschool.
