December 1, 2005, was my first visit to the brand new Georgia Aquarium, the LARGEST in the world, containing eight million gallons of water. (Think of how many toilets you’d have to flush for that!)
(Vader voice) Impressive. Most impressive. (/Vader voice)
Initially I spent the first half-hour with a sea of people, not fish, in line to get my annual pass, complete with god-awful picture. After that, pure awe. Folks, you have to see it to believe it. I’ve never been to Chattanooga or any other large aquarium, so I don’t ask me to compare. Just know that this is the bestest, most fabulous ever and that’s that.
The aquarium is separated into five sections: Tropical, Ocean, Cold water, Rivers and Georgia. There are two gift shops and a café, plus a 4-D theater upstairs. You could spend an hour walking through everything, but you’d have a better time looking at everything and spending hours exploring. There are several ginormous exhibits where you’ll just want to take a seat and watch; it’s that relaxing.
