Out and About - Georgia Aquarium

 We met up with our friends in Atlanta at the tail end of their spring break, and went to the Georgia Aquarium. It was a beautiful day, and the girls enjoyed the park as well as the aquarium. Georgia Aquarium has a lot of touch tanks, James was helping Aurora reach the sharks in this touch tank (no, he isn't trying to feed her to the sharks!)



 Aurora was very interested in the coral reef exhibit, they had touch screen computers that would let you spot a fish in the tank then touch it on the screen and learn its name. Aurora and I read about nearly every fish in the tank! There was an exhibit that we had never seen before - FROGS! Aurora loves frogs - in real life as well as in the aquarium. We even saw a "bumblebee Frog" (that was its name, but also made Aurora happy because she has developed an obsession with the transformers character bumblebee.) Everytime she sees a yellow car she yells out BUMBLEBEE!! (like Linda, when she would point out Tweety Bird Cars)


 Our trip to Atlanta was really nice. We even got to visit with Nana before we left! (I forgot my camera that day :( ) It was really great to see every one, and Aurora was so please that she was able to see every one. She is still talking about it! (Actually, that is what reminded me to post this for you to see.)
Have you been out and about lately?
