Looking for Nemo and Dory
In front of the piranha tank...yes, that's a nervous smile on Jake
Yeah for Grandpa!
Jake, Capt'n of the shrimp boat
Albino Aligator....looked like it was carved out of ivory.
This week we were lucky enough to see my Dad. He was visiting Atlanta for a conference. So, we headed down and played for a day at the Georgia Aquarium.
It was a much better choice than staying out in the heat 93 degrees with a much higher heat index. We loved this aquarium!
The whole thing was divided into River animals, cold water creatures, ocean life, tropical fish and a few others. We got to touch sting rays, sea anenomes, starfish and shrimp. Yikes! We saw beluga wales and shark whales and sharks...it was a huge place. My favorite was the Barrier Reef tropical fish. We found Dory and Nemo and Nemo's dad and Scar and all the other characters from the disney movie Nemo. There were brilliant and bold colored fish everywhere.
The kids liked it but, Emily asked me after the first display "I'm done looking at fish, can we find something else to look at?"
There were very funny otters fighting over toys, very stiff penguins, and some sea creatures I'd never seen or even heard of before.
It was great to see you Dad! Thanks for feeding us and letting us share a few hours with you.
Happy Father's Day!
