Aquarium & IMAX

The weekend after returning from WI Chuck got an unexpected weekend off due to maintenance work on the ORs. We heard that Chattanooga is a great weekend getaway for families so we packed up the car and went. We had a blast. The aquarium was amazing and our hotel was walking distance from everything. Here are just a few pictures of the many taken that weekend.
Carter loved the tanks that he could go and stand in the middle of. This one I think was his favorite one since it had the cast of Nemo in it.

We set the camera on a ledge to get a family shot with the river in the background.
Carter got a kick out of Daddy feeding the sting rays but was bummed that his arms weren't long enough to do it himself. There was another tank that had huge fish in it that he could reach in and touch. It took us a while to get him to move on.
Our package included tickets to the the IMAX theater. We weren't sure if Carter would sit still for it but we figured we would give it a try. After running around the aquarium all day we thought our chances might be pretty good. It was a 3D showing of Under the Sea. Carter ended up enjoying the movie and Audrey ended up watching it too. She flinched when a fish jumped out at some other fish. It was a funfilled day and both kids were exhausted by the end of the day. They both fell asleep while we waited for a table for dinner. We ended up getting our dinner to go and had a nice quiet dinner and movie in our hotel room.
