Read this paragraph. When my grandparents proposed we visit an aquarium,
I never imagined the impact the trip might have on my
life. We traveled by car to Harbortown, and we passed
the time discussing the attractions we hoped to see. At
the aquarium, we roamed through aisles of tanks,
mystified by the sea creatures within. My grandmother
discovered a "touch tank," and we enjoyed sensory
interaction with a ray. But it was the "Careers in Marine
Biology" exhibition that offered me a glimpse of my
future.
