La Jolla Underwater Park tells about a special place set aside for marine animals, on the coast of San Diego.  Children can look at starfish in tide pools protected by the reserve.  Seals enjoy bathing in the sun as they lie on the sandy beach.  Pelicans scoop up fish and seagulls like to fly in the ocean breeze looking for sea life to eat.  It all works together in a wonderful ecosystem protected by laws so others can enjoy.
