Hammsters in Hotlanta! Part 4

On the final day of our trip in Atlanta we went to the Aquarium with my mommy friends and their children. Nate was REALLY excited about all the fish but not nearly excited about the 50 gazillion people all crammed in each tunnel. Whenever the spaces opened up though, Nate would want to get down and go point to all the fish. He was also SUPER excited about a shark. I was extremely impressed each time a shark went by (maybe it was just the same sad shark circling around?) he'd yell out, "Shark, shark!"

A rare family photo. Sadly we're by the ugliest fish in the whole place (a bunch of Grady fish. - only like 3 people would get this reference, but I made it nonetheless).


Nate thought the otters we so funny playing around in the water. Until they got a bit too aggressive in their play and then his screaming alerted us it was time to move along to the next animal. There was quite a bit of fit-throwing, screaming, scared shaking, and crying throughout the Aquarium.


Here's a rare photo of all my mommy friends and their little ones together. Look closely and you will see all the September '06 babies are all wearing the same shirt. Two of the mommies made up shirts with pictures of all our kids on it. Adorable. If you looked closely you'll also notice I'm the one holding the crying child. Did I mention there was crying?


This was a GIANT fish tank and it was in a nice open area. This was Nate's favorite place and we spent like 30 minutes in here. Honestly it was nice and bright in this room and the fish were gorgeous.


Getting ready to leave, Nate hugging his new friend, Gage.


That's it. That's our trip to Atlanta. Well there was a whole 6 and a half hour drive home. But it was not exciting and no photos. We hope to make a return trip to Atlanta sometime in the future.

Looks like fun! We are going to Atlanta this weekend to see Jeff's grandmother... we may wait until he's a little older to check out the aquarium. He may be unimpressed at this point!
