Come Upstairs

 Briton has given himself a weekend in Chattanooga.  One of the "mandatory" stops there is the Tennessee Aquarium.  We have been there so many times: aquaria, zoos, animal parks were (and still are, frankly) musts when this family traveled.

(Quick aside --- the first time we took a very young Briton to the Aquarium, about three-quarters of the way through the building, he sort of threw up his hands and said, "Fish, fish, fish!  All they have here is fish!")

ANYWAY, to get up to the main exhibits, you ride a long, steep escalator.  I love that part.  Truth be told, it's my favorite part of the whole thing. Briton just sent me this:

He remembers.

Wow...that's a cool one! I have a friend that can't do escalators at all. We went to lunch last month and she literally had to hold onto the back of me with her eyes closed to get up to the restaurant.

We went there once when we lived in Knoxville (along with a trip to Rock City!). It was a fun stop!

Years ago, we had visitors with a 5-year-old boy who was LIVING to go to the Aquarium in Baltimore to see the SHARKS! It's all he talked about. When we finally made it to the aquarium, the shark tank was ... empty because it was being re-done.

Those people have never visited us again.
