World's Largest Aquarium


Georgia Aquarium.
So not your average fish tank.



Think movie screen size tank.
With glass 3 inches thick.

Think whales
and gigantic bat rays. 

Swimming over your head.

Think how much your sweet and adventurous child
will LOVE such an amazing place!

Think again.

Let's just say...
once again...
adventure & new things?
Not Maybeline's strong point.

This is the one picture I could get of her
where she wasn't latched onto my legs
or crying to be near me.
Blurry.
I'll take it.

But then there's this precious scene...
Shot one:
Me:
"Maybeline! Come take a picture with me in front of this cool tank!"

With your finger in your nose.

Shot two:
Maybeline:
"What? Fish! Ahhh! Run for your life!
Deadly coral."

Shot three:
Me:
"Fine. I'll enjoy it myself."

Shot four:
Adventurous Phoebe runs to save Auntie Lisa
from a school of life threatening
tropical fish.

Shot five:
They enjoy the wonders of the tank together.

Shot six:
Maybeline,
finger still in nose.

You know what was the most interesting event of the day?

Out of all the beautiful and fascinating fish we saw,
Maybeline's favorite were the piranhas.
Yeah, the ones that BITE to kill.
Just... like... Maybeline.
No joke!
She loved the pirana tank.
Weird connection.

It was one of those trips
where you pictured it so differently.
