The Georgia Aquarium. Yay!



Approaching the aquarium from the back -


The view when you first enter -


A close-up of the above tank.



Even closer.



This is the photo of one of the amazing, stupendous tiger sharks in the football field sized tank at the Georgia Aquarium. There is only a small, tall viewing window as you go in.


This glimpse from a different window alone was worth the $25.00 admission fee!


More from the BIG tank:






There was a walk-through tunnel with a movator (like how you see the Queen's jewels).


Here is one of the tiger sharks above the tunnel:



A wide shot of the rotunda of the aquarium.


I love to watch seahorses.


There was a ray and shark TOUCH POOL.


I touched a ray!

And a shark! (I didn't pull that photo up).

Turtles!


A close up of some shark teeth, through the two foot thick acrylic of the tank.


A teeny tiny seahorse.


Another overhead tank - this time tropical.


The view from above.


Jellies!

The Philips Arena. I took a picture of this because I always associate Philips with the Netherlands, but aparantly it is doing well here in Atlanta . . .



The charming CNN Center.



Some neat facemasks at the CNN Centre. Not a word on the news about the NHL, though.

I had to meet our group at the Atlanta Airport for a shuttle, and the meeting place was a dinosaur skeleton! It was huge, but everyone I asked directions from did not remember it. I'm not sure why . . .



The Chateau Elan is a magnificent complex - and has great shooting locations. We are working with a 2 and 4 year old boy here. A few amazing moments in the fountain.



Great food, too. This if for you, K:
