Field trips: The Ocean Institute

We love field trips. There are so many wonderful places where you can learn, and have tons of fun. Here are some of the pictures of our visit to the Ocean Institute in Dana Point. The place is not that big, which is a plus since we did not have that weird, awful  "too little time, too much to see" feeling that sometimes accompanies going anywhere in California.

There were plenty of hands-on activities:

Dissecting and studying a squid




Looking at plankton with a microscope


Watching interesting creatures

Just outside the Institute we also had a wonderful time searching for crabs, enjoying the view, and searching for treasures at the beach.





Here is the information about the Ocean Institute:
