GA Aquarium - a couple of notes

For those that haven't been lately, just a couple of notes for you if you plan to go any time soon (or even if you don't). These are just my observations as I worked the floor at the Aquarium.

It's the end of the school year, a lot of school groups are starting to make their way through for their last minute field trips. Bring your patience and be prepared for large crowds.

The vendors that used to be on the main atrium floor have moved upstairs. Where Planet Shark used to be is now a small hide-away cafe. The small vendors have moved there and there are tables available for sitting.

The best times to go are still first thing in the morning (at opening) or later in the afternoon (after 3). If you can spare a Sunday morning, it's usually busy but not necessarily as packed.

There are audio tours that you can download from the Georgia Aquarium web site. It works on your iPod or your cell phone.

There is a scavenger hunt you can print out for your kids to do. It's on the Georgia Aquarium web site under the Kids Corner.
