Atlanta Family Reunion ~ Day 2 Part 1 ~ The Atlanta Aquarium

We had an amazing day at The Atlanta Aquarium.  It is my favorite aquarium that I've ever visited.  It's huge and has the best exhibits.  Caleb and Mason both love animals from the aquarium.  Caleb's favorites are the otters and Mason loves penguins. 


Petting the stingrays!


Nana and Papa Oregon liked it too!

The boys ran off some energy in the play area...

...and had fun playing captain.
Julie did a little teaching.


We were up close and personal with the turtles.





Caleb loved observing the sea otters

And Mason was thrilled to watch the penguins!




I love this pic of Mason



It was awesome to go through a tunnel and have sea life ALL around!


We relaxed in a giant lobby where we could watch all of the aquarium happenings.





I had to snap a pic of a true southernism... little girls with hair bows the size of their heads.  Throw in a smocked and monogrammed dress, some Mary Jane shoes and frilly socks to complete the look.
 

The otters were not cooperating.  They did come out for a bit to eat and use the facilities... but were not their playful selves.  Maybe next time?

Thank you Nana and Papa Oregon for a fun, fun morning.  What's next Papa?
