Habitat's Diary

We were pulling up at the parking lot of Knott's soak city it was so full. I was so exited. First we had to get our tickets. Second we had to find some chairs. Then we went to a pool called The wave cove. And every 5 minutes waves would hit. It was so fun to swim over them. After that we went to a big water slide that was 50 feet tall. My little cousin went on one that was 4 feet tall. Then we ate pizza and salad. Then we went to the Lazy river that took you around Knott's soak city.

It was carrying a lot of people from all over the world. I have never been so excited in my life to go to one place. The anticipation was so overwhelming and once again, I could not wait to get to the resort. After a twenty minute bus ride we got to the resort. Once I stepped off the bus I could remember seeing the beautiful palm trees and feeling the heat of the sun beating on my face. I said to my dad, finally we made it and let the fun begin. We got settled and checked into the hotel. My brother and I decided to check the rest of the resort out. The resort had a crystal clear pool with a bar in it. It was amazing and I have never seen anything like it before in my life. The resort also had ten gourmet restaurants and plenty of entertaining things for us kids to do. So, after we did this we went back to our hotel and stayed in for the night. We were beat and just wanted to get some sleep from the long day of

At Fragatele Bay it is a small beach and the water around the coral is very shallow. I was really excited because I had read a lot about the exotic fish here and really wanted to see one. I couldn't wait to make a requite to snorkeling since the last time when I was terrified by the fish. We got suited up in our gear and got into the water as fast as the instructors could keep up with us. The fish that I saw were the butterfly fish, Damselfish, and the parrot fish, the prettiest of all. None of the fish I saw were comestible because we were in a National Park. They were all so stunning and the way they moved reminded me of a cryptic message. They all had a mysterious glow to them.

Last year sometime in November I got in contact with a friend of my moms and asked for a job working on the fishing boat he owned in Hawaii. He said yes and told me to come soon after Christmas, so on December 27th I got on a plane to Hawaii. Going into this new experience I was in the Honeymoon stage. I had never been to Hawaii nor had I ever worked on a fishing boat, but both of these brought me

This summer I went to Florida for the first time. Not only that but for the first time I rode a plane tried crab,mahi mahi,and I went to the beach for the first time. While I was there I met my

We had a quick lunch at the buffet and then we absolutely had to get back in the cool water. We decided to go snorkeling. By the time we all donned our snorkel gear, it was about 12:30. The crystal clear water was absolutely gorgeous! The land on either side of us was all green and covered in beautiful trees and plants. There were tons of fish below us, from dark grey to bright orange. There were all different species and a lot of huge schools. Some were out in the open, but others were hidden under rocks, bobbing with the current. After a wonderful twenty minutes of snorkeling, a huge fish swam like lightning past us with smaller fish trailing quickly behind it. It was very scary looking and about a yard wide by two feet tall. My brother and I chased after it but lost its trail thirty seconds into the chase. It was thrilling and terrifying at the same time. We later learned the fish was a barracuda and we were very happy that everyone got to see it! We then decided to head in on such a high note. On our way in, my brother claimed there was a creature moving sand on the bottom of the ocean. We all gathered around him and saw a huge stingray about three feet wide! We all marveled at it for a while then realized the danger and head

We finally made it to Salt Lake City. The plane ride was a long few hours of listening to music and watching all of my DVDs. All I wanted was to make it to Idaho Falls so I could sleep. My mom was going to rent a car and we would drive out to my grandma's house where we would be staying for the week.

It was a cool fall afternoon were the sun was just about to set on the Ireland countryside were I would be staying for a few weeks. I was being taken across the lake with a surface that was black as night. When I got across the lake to the giant medieval castle were I would be staying. I put my stuff away then I went to met up with my friend by the lake were he had his boat waiting so we could try and find the loch ness monster that's the whole reason I was there.

The day finally came, we got on a plane for Orlando. I had never been on a plane, I was pretty scared and excited at the same time. Once we landed, we got on a bus and went to our room that we stayed in for the week. It had a pool table and everything. The next day we were off to magic kingdom, the biggest park out of all the parks.

That was walking distance from universal Orlando and we all slept for like an 2hours cause we were all so tired from the cruise. Then when me and brother woke up we went to universal to ride some rides and went on the new transformer ride and was awesome and we went on the despicable me ride and that was fun then my mom met us there we took her on the transformer ride and we got stuck in it and it was at the best place my got got sick so he didn't come until the next day and we went Harry Potter world and we rode the ride it was fun and then we went to go eat dinner bye our

It was a trip that we went on with my sister and her family, which would be our first trip together. The night the trip was booked, I continuously paced the floor looking out of my bedroom window to see if my husband was home from work yet. Since he was working out of

For as long as I can remember, I have been fascinated by marine life. I visited the Baltimore Aquarium many times as a child; I remember being amazed by the different kinds of animals I saw. I spent my summers at the library reading about marine organisms, their habitats, their

Once, there lived a fish king name Bob. He was a very kind and he can do anything to save other Sharks and Dolphins. He had a son name Boo. He loved to jump out of ocean and the best thing was that he loved to learn about marine ecosystem and biogeochemical cycle. Whenever he jumps he wonders where did this water came from. Today it was his lucky day. Guess what!!!! Well you will see in moment.

On Wednesday the 9th of March, Students from Sacred Heart College Travelled by Bus to Siren’s Rock’s which lies between Owhiro Bay and Island Bay. At Siren’s rocks we had to explore the rocks and collect data of all the different species we found at the rocky shore. The rocky shore is an intertidal place where solid rocks predominate. It is useful for the study of Organisms living on the rocky shore. The rocky shore consists of the low tide, mid tide, high tide and splash zones. we used quadrats to sample which species was located in these zones. Quadrats is a sampling method used to see which organisms are located in certain proportions. The species I have chosen to talk about in my report today is one type of Limpet and one type of Top Shell. The common name for the Limpet I found is the Golden/ Radiate Limpet of whose scientific name is Cellana Radians which was found in the lower intertidal zone. The common name for the species of top shell I found was actually just

It was about 10:30 Saturday morning when I woke up, still feeling bad from the night before. My boyfriend decided at the last minute to surprise me and four of our children with a day at the beach the day before. We left with only the clothes on our backs and bathing suits. It was only after we arrived that we decided to stay the night. So we got us a room at the Sea Foam motel in Nags Head, NC.
