Aquarium

The first day of our vacation, we headed to the Ripley's Aquarium.  Daniel had won 4 passes at the Science Fair so our total admission was under $8.  We splurged on a totally tasteless yet expensive lunch at the aquarium.   One piece of advice---bring some snacks.  McDonald's had more taste than the meals that were totally overpriced.  Oh well, live and learn. 

I wish I could just sit and watch the tanks all day...but my brood are a little more restless than that.  I still got some great video of the tanks.  I'm still learning the settings on my camera, so a lot of my pictures did not turn out as well as I hoped.

Where they get that goofiness, I'll never know.

The tunnel...this is our first trip where Michael has not been in a stroller...he decided to take a break on the moving sidewalk.

We did have a great time and the crowds were very manageable this time.  We actually bumped into a pastor we knew from our time at Trevecca.  I thought he looked really familiar and then I just had to approach and ask.  It truly is a small world.
