NOT TRUE

 

     We can all agree that sometimes, social media is a lie. Let me tell you about one of these times. I
and my family were planning a trip to Boston, MA, for a long weekend. My dad was picking me up from my dance class and, for some reason, showed me a picture of an aquarium that we were going to visit. I was excited because it showed the walls as a tank with all types of creatures. The whole time we were in Boston, I was so excited to finally go to the aquarium. 

    When the day was finally here, I was so excited. When we showed the lady at the front door our tickets, we entered the aquarium. it was beautiful. There were fish, seals, penguins, and a massive tank in the center. But when I looked at the walls, they were just concrete. But there were a few more rooms, so I didn't lose hope. 

     When we went into the next room, there were sharks. They were fantastic, but it was not the picture. I kept the picture in my mind as we went into some of the other rooms. None of them had the tanks like the picture. Now I was starting to lose hope. 

     One room left, and this was my last chance. GIFT SHOP!!!!!! Really!!!!! I was not happy. My dad could see that, so he asked someone, " That's not a real aquarium." They said. 

     I was angry. It was NOT TRUE! Once we went to the hotel, then went home, I realized, it was funny. I was so excited about some fake image that I hardly noticed the beautiful creatures. The lesson I learned was not to trust the internet.
