The Tennessee Aquarium
Chose the Tennessee aquarium to the Georgia one so the car would not get stolen, or my family accosted. Found great parking, a splash pad crossed with a lazy river, and a city I keep wanting to move to. Then pizza, a movie, and a book study that keeps making premillennialism look worse.
Last night as I was putting the kids to bed, I let them know our plans for tomorrow morning: we're going to eat breakfast, get dressed, and make the trek to the Tennessee Aquarium. They've been there before (I think), but it has been at least a few years.
We have the Georgia Aquarium in Atlanta, but (1) it's only a little bit closer, (2) it requires driving into Atlanta. And maybe (3) I don't want our car to get stolen, or (4) to be accosted by aggressive bums. The Tennessee Aquarium is the clear choice.
It's funny that on days when we have no morning plans, the kids are up at 06:30 and ready to go (for no particular reason), but here we are with an itinerary, and I'm waking kids up as 8am approaches.
