Back in May we wanted to check out the Georgia Aquarium. We had no idea what we were in for. When we got in we had quite a shock. Apparently the Georgia Aquarium is the world’s largest aquarium with 8 million gallons of fresh and marine water, and more than 100,000 animals representing 500 species from around the globe. It was fantastic! Except for one thing and that was we managed to somehow visit during some huge multi school field trip. We had to squeeze our way through to get close to some of the exhibit. Maybe if Mom and Dad Elton are still planning on coming to visit we can go up again without the crowd.
The front entrance had this wall that kept changing colors. You can't tell in the picture, but this place was HUGE!
Of course Ian was completely captivated by the swimming fishes.
This place was really kid oriented. Tons of stuff for kids to do like crawl through a tunnel so you can look up into the aquarium.
They of course had one of those glass tunnels that you walk through.
Did I mention they had not one, but FOUR whale sharks!
Izzy is just the best sista ever! She loves her baby brother.
Afterwards we crossed the street to this big huge park they built especially for the Olympics. It had two awesome playgrounds, big huge grass field with statues, and lots of fountains. This was one of them that you could run through and splash around. Its just like the one in SLC at the Gateway Mall. It was in the late 80's so we all joined in to cool off.
Izzy's gotten into some weird stage of making strange poses and faces at the camera now. It's cute, but wish she would just be normal sometimes!

Aquariums rock! I think Benson likes them almost as much as I do.
ReplyDeleteAlso, Izzy's naked pic is hilarous. What a model.
