Snow Day at the Aquarium
Today was a very wet and snowy day ... the trains were delayed so I spent half an hour on a platform in the snow ... waiting for the trains .... but I didn't mind I knew I had to do my first rainforest talk today and I was really nervous so I spent most of the journey learning my talk.
The talk went fine ... I did it in front of a crowd of .... two people ;o) It was good though doing it in front of two people meant that it wasn't as much pressure so the talk went well.
It was a good day I had two other talks that I did the shark talk and the coral talk. I realized that it is really the people who come to the talks that make it worthwhile. I had a gentleman that came to ask me questions after the shark talk, he really tested my knowledge of sharks which was great ... and it inspires me to read up more to be prepared.
The coral talk was just as interesting. There was one lady and her husband that was quite an interesting pair. They were interested to a point but also one of those that thought that they knew everything ... so they didn't listen to what I said ... so I ended up having to repeat myself ... over and over and over. But later after the talk I had a stint at the ray pool and one of the ladies that was at the coral talk with her husband came back to thank me for the talk and to tell me it was very interesting ... it makes it really worthwhile.
More hopefully l8r
