Weekend Update: Sunday

Mom L guessed right...that was a jellyfish! Last Sunday, Miss Chef and I did a road trip to Atlanta, to see the Georgia Aquarium. Little did we know it was not 2 1/2 hours away, as Miss Chef believed, but closer to 4 hours! And little did we consider this: biggest single saltwater tank in the world + national holiday weekend + major metropolitan area = BIG CROWDS.

Well, we managed to have a decent good time anyway. We took over 100 photos, but most of them came out pretty fuzzy, darnit. I've collected 20-some decent shots in a slideshow, because there's not much storyline in this story.

Enjoy!

  1. Wow, Flar... so so so pretty. you know, the Atlantis in Nassau Bahamas has a ginormous tank like that with all manner of sea life. It's stunning. I LOVE the jellyfish photos especially. Lauged out loud at the Dori slide too. You are a hoot.

    But my favorite photo, though, is the one you YOU girlfriend!

    Keep smiling!

  4. You were in MY town!!! Now I have to confess: I have not been to the new aquarium. Dreaded the crowds, and knee problems keep me from walking much these days. I think Diane's favorite creature is the Beluga whale - she took a closeup that looks like it's smiling at her.

  6. Looks like a fab time! I love aquariums and often sit my butt down on the floor just to watch the fish for the longest time. :)
    Your photos were fun. Thanks for sharing.
