In Atlanta


Hey everyone from my region(PA-NJ) - you should see what spring looks like in the South. They actually have colors here, like green and purple and such. Cool thing is that I am going to the Atlanta Aquarium today to check out their stuff. Anyone been there?

I love Atlanta and I was at their aquarium a couple of years ago - it's a great spot. I didn't take the Behind The Scenes tour but I bet it would be well worth the time. Let us know how it goes!

They have a new program, you can swim/dive with the whale sharks! I MUST do that! All I need is a dive buddy... and $300. I'll start saving once I finish paying off all these tank upgrades.

Unfortunately, I didn't get a chance to read the posts before leaving because I would have loved to take that tour. That aquarium is set up soooo nice! Yes, if you have the money you can dive with the whale sharks. The displays were great, the speakers were great and the fish and such looked really healthy. I will definitely go back again when I am here.
