The Georgia Aquarium

Tuesday morning, Tara, the 5 kiddos, and I headed to the Georgia Aquarium! Kyle and I had only been once (before we even moved to Georgia!) so it was a long overdue trip especially now that we have Emery!  We had THE BEST morning there together, and the kids absolutely had a ball!

The tunnel where you are completely surrounded by fish is so cool.  We were all blown away by how large some of the fish were!

Emery kept reaching up to show me the fish overhead, totally mesmerized.

A view from one of the windows into the tank:

Our next favorite spot was the huge glass to look into the tank.  Crazy how thick the glass is!

Like I said, Emery was mesmerized...

We then headed over to the inside playground and station where the kids could actually touch some live animals:

We had reservations for the 11:00 showing of Dolphin Tales, so around 10:30 we headed into the stadium to get seats.  This is a new show at the aquarium and it was amazing.  Seriously like sea world good!  

 

It is a full on show, with singing, lights, shooting water, and lots of dolphins and trainers.  You aren't allowed to take any pictures during the show, but this is one I snapped before it started. 

I think Nathan's comment at the end completely summed it up.  He turned to Tara and said, "Mommy was that a movie or real life?".  

I had to include a picture of the Beluga Whale below, one of my favorites!

We walked through a couple more exhibits before heading out.

Emery was so worn out after the aquarium, she immediately fell asleep once we got in the car.  SUCH A FUN DAY!
