Aquarium Adventure

Last month, my brother and his family came to visit over their spring break. We packed a lot of fun into a few days--including a visit to Georgia Aquarium. (We are members there--so if you ever want to go, please let me know!) My niece Abigail loves animals and critters of all types, so we knew she would really enjoy it, and she did! Here are a few photos from our morning at the world's largest aquarium ...


The Pierce Family ... getting ready to enter ...


Kate and me in front of the big fish wall (can't remember its official name)


And the Pierce fam again ...


Abigail and Anna-Claire having fun


Look!


Walking through the tunnel ...
Kate had just had a meltdown at this point because she did not want to go back in the stroller. Ah ... joy!


Anna-Claire and Kate--these two enjoyed eating goldfish crackers.


Kate loved the kiddie area.


I think she would have jumped in if I'd let her.


In front of the beluga whales


And before we left ... we had a peek at the penguins!

We got a great group shot with everyone as we were entering--you know the photos they take, and then they charge you an arm and a leg for? I try to be strong and not buy them--but it was a really good photo. I bought the one of Mom and me from last time, too. And Robin bought the one of us when we went to the Titanic exhibit. They must make a killing on those pictures! (And don't get me started on the parking charges ... that is another post for another day ...)

  1. Thank again for such a fun-filled Spring Break! We had a great time on all of our animal adventures in the ATL- our trip had kind of a scienc-y theme, if you think about it. ;) The girls look so sweet in their coordinating CK!
