Georgia Aquarium--any thoughts?
We went to the Georgia Aquarium in Atlanta on Friday (3/17). The place has the potential to be a Class A attraction, but it's not there yet. They need to hire LOTS more employees and limit the number of people who can enter at a time. I could see many potential lawsuits from their poor crowd management from the time we parked until we left. We got no direction once we entered and were not completely sure we had seen all the exhibits. I'm afraid if their "Show Me the Money" attitude does not change, the aquarium will not be a success in the long run. The whole experience made me wonder if the animals were being as well treated as they should be considering the attitude toward the human animals who paid to enter. Some of the tanks seemed small for the large animals. Anyone else out there who has visited and has any opinion?

1. I loved it.
I went early, back in December, and the crowds weren't bad. I didn't notice any tanks that seemed too small.
