On the drive to Gatlinburg, Carter and Mary Grace held hands for about a third of the drive. Carter even fell asleep holding Mary Grace's hand. It was very sweet!
We spent about an hour and a half in the aquarium even though I felt like Carter was running through some parts of it so quick. It seemed like everyone had fun!
Carter checking out the fish in the lobby area ...
Standing on a ledge to see some fish ...
Carter liked this little tank that the was able to stand underneath ...
Mary Grace pointing out a "Dory" fish to Carter ...
The moving walkway was moving super slow today (maybe because it wasn't very crowded so they weren't trying to push people through very quickly). Carter got tired of being held and liked standing on the walkway by himself ...
There is a treasure chest in the children's play area. Carter pushed the button on the front of it and it shoots a stream of air up from the front below. It startled Carter (he jumped), but then he just laughed. He went back and did it again later.
I don't think Carter was supposed to be playing in the shark jaw, but he loved it. I never got a good picture of him because I was looking around too much for an employee who might yell at us ...
So cute!
Looking at all the rays ...
We went to lunch at McAlister's after the aquarium. When Sarah carries Mary Grace on her back (like a piggy-back ride), Mary Grace says she's Sarah's backpack. Mary Grace decided she wanted to be Carter's backpack and this is what she did - it was so cute and Carter loved it. He was grinning big the whole time ...
We had a lot of fun and hope to go to the aquarium again soon before Sarah's annual pass expires.
