This part of my journey has certainly stirred the warrior spirit in me. First the alligators in New Orleans, now these gigantic whale sharks in Georgia. Their American caregivers are trying to inspire education and conservation to the public by making these colossal creatures available to view. The Georgia Aquarium even had several beluga whales and one of only four manta rays in aquariums around the world.
This aquarium is massive! This Bernie Marcus must have a fortune to rival even the Emperor, to give such a gift to Georgia and the people of Atlanta. I watched as parent and child alike had looks of wonder and amazement as they explored the aquarium. I myself was in awe as I traveled in a tunnel covered by millions of liters of water and the sea creatures swam around me. I spent the entire day lost amongst these fascinating creatures.
