Just got back, we finally went to the aquarium today. Definately worth the trip. I have to admit, I felt really disappointed that I couldn't get up to see that awesome surge system. I spent alot of time just wanting to get upstairs where the really cool stuff was.
Maybe next time.

There were five otters in the hammock in the second pic. Didn't get but a couple of pics worth keeping so far...haven't gone thru all of them yet.

That place is awesome and definitely worth trip, as you said. Interestingly enough, Bart, the guy at B&B who runs our tank maintenance service, is actually going to start working there as a life support systems tech.

I think it would be a very cool experience to work there. The drive to and from work might be a different matter, though..

Glad to here the aquarium in Georgia was worth the trip. We are going next week. Taking the five year old before she starts school.
Later,

as nice as it is... I couldn't enjoy it with 10,000 other people jockeying for position to see the same thing.
I am planning to go back in a year, to see some of the growth. And, by then the crowds will have hopefully died down.

It was ridiculously crowded when I went in March.

This was our same situation with the Ripley's Aquarium of the Americas, not to mention most of the stuff was very bogues, not a real coral but one particular tank. Most of the corals were fake, and the retarded tourist could not tell the difference.
Here you can see where one of the fake corals had fallen off the exhibit and the white plug was showing.
