More Fun in Tennessee- Ripley's Aquarium

On the 27th we all went to Ripley's Aquarium in Gatlinburg that is a ton of fun. The kids had a great time watching all of the fish and especially loved the moving walkway that goes through a tunnel under some large tanks containing many types of sharks, lots of fish, and even barracudas. We also enjoyed a really neat display of jellyfish; I wouldn't want to encounter one in the water, but they are truly amazing and unusual to watch. They are surprisingly graceful, and the aquarium pipes classical music in near the display to listen to as you observe them. Hover your cursor over the pics in the slideshow below to view the captions (you can also speed up or slow down the pics by clicking on the "-" or "+" signs in the lower left).

This is one of our favorite aquariums! I even think we have a picture of some of the same fish :)
