I always enjoy the penguin exhibit as well as the gigantic cylindrical fish/animal tank that spans all the levels of the aquarium. The penguin exhibit has periodic talks, as well as at the top of the fish tank. I believe the outdoor sea lion exhibit also has talks. But your ticket online...

The TVs in the work cafeteria are tuned to MSNBC. Usually shows the mid-day stock reports but now covering the tragic events. The banner at the bottom of the screen alternates between 67 persons presumed dead and 28 bodies recovered so far.
