I took Christopher down to Chattanooga to visit my sister, Mindy, last week. We spent Thursday night and Friday down there. Our plan for Friday was go to Coolidge Park in the morning where there's a playground, water fountains and carousel, have a picnic lunch and then go to The Aquarium. However, it rained all morning, so we stayed longer visiting Mindy's BFF (who gave us IMAX tickets) instead. We then had our picnic lunch (in the rain) at an umbrella table at The Aquarium. Afterward, we all went to see a 45-minute show about dolphins and whales at the IMAX. It was Christopher's 1st movie at a theater of any kind and he did okay. Thank goodness it was only 45 minutes, though! At first, he was afraid of the 3D glasses and when the theater got really dark (the bright screen lit the room most of the time). However, with about 15-20 minutes left, he let me put the glasses back on him. From that point, he LOVED it! It was too funny seeing him try to catch and pet the dolphins and whales! LOL!
Here are some pictures from our day:
