Stanford Tour group 2 Day 6


Today was the day for our long-awaited field trip to San Francisco. We went to the California Academy of Science as our first stop. We first entered the rainforest exhibit where we could see butterflies and birds of a wide variety.Some of our group mates were scared of the butterflies. Yet all of us enjoyed the experience very much and immersed ourselves fully in this beautifully recreated environment of a forest. The best part of this visit to the California Academy of Science was seeing the albino alligator. We were all surprised by the largeness of the creature. It was truly a fun experience.



The next stop was the Golden Gate Bridge. The view was stunning and we were all amazed. In fact, physically being at such attractions was drastically different from merely viewing images on the internet. We loved it very much. It was surprisingly windy and chilly in San Francisco. We enjoyed the fascinating scenes a lot.




The next stop was the famous Fishermen’s Wharf. We took a lot of nice photos around the pier. The souvenirs we saw seemed so memorable that we couldn’t help but to buy them! We were all astonished by the breathtaking views and sights in the Fishermen’. Although we didn’t have too much time to spend there, we definitely involved ourselves completely to create valuable memories

Sebastian Alvarado was a really animated and lovely man and although the topic was new and challenging, it was interesting and fun and we were all amazed by how complex DNA actually is. He even took us to his lab to look at colour-changing fishes. It was definitely a rare experience. We were also given questions that we weren’t taught so that we could find an answer based on some given information. It encouraged all of us to think beyond our imagination and to step out of our comfort ...
