You cannot pet the sharks at the Monterey Bay Aquarium.
I enjoyed the sign that instructed you to pet the sharks with only two fingers. Someone with me asked why, and I said that it must be so that if the sharks bite, you'd still have 3 fingers left. They probably just don't want you to grab their tails.
I also was amused by the employee there that told some guests that the sharks don't bite.
Loved the guitarfish. I don't know why.
I don't love birds landing on me, so I didn't love the aviary there, but it was great fun watching the other people I was with feed the birds.
In general, I liked the outdoor sections much better than the indoor sections.
Monterey is still bigger, though. AOTP doesn't have the impressive multi-story viewing of the tanks. Lots of small windows, but much of the indoor stuff appeared to be parts of one larger tank.
I'd be a member if I lived nearby.
