So I went to the aquarium today.
For those who like personal defense: Leave these items in your car.
I had to go back to my car because I was 'locked and loaded' and they do not allow guns, knives, fishing poles, and pointy objects in their facility.
Metal detectors check before you go in.
The Beluga Whales and Whale Sharks were cool. Sea otters, sea lions, penguins were neat too. They lacked some fishes that the TN aquarium has but made by having stuff TN didn't have.
I expected it be a little bigger, but it didn't feel like it. It definitely has more tank space for fishes though. I guess the only way I can get the hookup is to donate money so that I can go into the back rooms and such.
