Downtown Long Beach and Aquarium

in #destination7 years ago

I was in downtown Long Beach today at The Aquarium of the Pacific. This area has come quite a long way in the past decade, and the city has done a great job revitalizing the area.

There are now many trendy restaurants and bars, and the business district has really made a comeback. For so long, Long Beach was primarily industrial and with rougher urban areas as it is a blue collar area, home to the 2nd busiest port for importing/exporting goods by sea in the US.

The Aquarium of the Pacific is one of the premier aquariums and a must visit if you are in the southern California area for a little bit of time. This was Jacob’s second visit and he had a fantastic time again.

I snapped some photos of Long Beach and the aquarium to share with you all:

This is so cool. I have always wanted to visit a place like this. Have hoped to visit Marineland or Seaworld at some point but it hasn’t happened yet. I think it would be so much fun to get such a close up view. Looks like you an dthe family had a great day!

Hello Friend how are you? @brian.rrr

A very nice place it hurts that it is so far from where I live but it seems a good fun place, Jacob has fun that's good, that fish is very big.

I really like marine life and everything that has to do with the sea that is very nice and interesting.

They enjoyed the trip very much

The place looks very sunny and sun good weather that I like, I also like aquariums you can see many things there too much marine animals, a long time ago I do not go to one I do not remember the last time is that in my country they are not so common there are like in 3 cities more or less

Long Beach is very nice, I think I had the opportunity to at some point see something on TV in some program that I do not remember now but if you remember the name of the place it is very nice and I see that you had a great time, Jacob seems entertained just like the diver that was a good photo

Wow beautiful pictures my friend @brian.rrr. I have never heard about this aquarium and to be honest I have been impressed with all the beauty of its splendor, also I also call my attention that the fish is the size of Jacop, wow is very large. The agreement is very beautiful and the view from outside also, the radiant sun, the blue sky. The day was perfect for your visit to the aquarium. regards

Hi Brian, those picture does bring a summer vibe !
Next to that, what a fun and joy you have with the family.
