The Aquarium!

For my birthday I took Ameria to the Georgia Aquarium (one of the world's largest!) As we walked in to the aquarium, Ameria's face lit up. I am pretty sure we shared the same level of excitement, and I have been looking forward to this day ever since I arrived in Atlanta.

On my birthday I was able to share my privilege with a friend I care deeply for. I don't know if Ameria will have another chance to experience the aquarium. As we walked around every few seconds I would hear from Ameria, "Ms. Katherine take a picture of this!" "Ms. Katherine take a picture of me!" We saw jellies, beluga whales, manna rays, whale sharks, eels, beautiful coral, octopus, shrimp, and sea otters among many animals I've never heard of. My camera died half way through our time, because I took so many photos. (check out my facebook page to see them all).

Enjoy the video and commentary below. And if you ever visit Atlanta, make the aquarium part of your experience.
