Will you experience the The Tennessee Aquarium in Chattanooga, TN with me because this post is filled with beautiful pictures of our ocean and river journey? I made this visit with my family in September 2017 while we were evacuating hurricane Irma. The Tennessee Aquarium was kind enough to give us a special event discount on our tickets!
The Tennessee Aquarium in Chattanooga has two buildings. The first in the picture above is the ocean journey which I recommend seeing first and then this the second the river journey. We went for several hours two days in a row in order to experience it all!
My daughter Madeleine says hi!
If you would like a video walkthrough, here it is!
View of the Tennessee River!
We visited the penguin exhibit first!
Those are not real mountains in the background ...
Madeleine loves the penguins!
Next on to the main tank!
Shark tank featuring music in my head by Akon "Locked Up"
So many colors!
With a life being afraid of being stung by jellyfish at the beach, it is nice to see how beautiful they look from a safe distance!
Am I in there with the crab?
The sharks swim peacefully with the other fish!
Here he comes back!
Majestic!
So many types of fish in the tank it is challenging to identify even a fraction of the ones on the sign!
Awesome under the tank underwater view!
The cave type experience underneath the largest tank was impressive!
What's up turtle?
An entire wall of jellyfish!
View of the river journey building from the ocean journey building!
Stingray touch tank!
We found Dory!
He's in there!
Butterflies!
We rode the escalator up and down at least 10 times just for fun!
Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles?
Seahorse!
Seahorses!
These dragon looking seahorses are definitely from another planet!
Hello again!
I forgot the name of this so I named it honey badger.
Another picture of the Jerry Banfield body.
Madeleine studies the fish carefully in the river journey!
Little babies!
Big alligators or crocodiles?
Friends!
Thank you for experiencing our journey through the Tennessee Aquarium! See you real soon!
Love,
Jerry Banfield
