Shark Lagoon Tunnel at Ripley's Aquarium

Michael and I visit the Ripley's Aquarium of the Smokies in Gatlinburg Tennessee on Feb. 11, and this is the featured area known as Shark Lagoon. We are in the underwater tunnel and on the automated walkway that takes you under Shark Lagoon. You can hear the ocean music and us talking to each other as we watch and me telling him about some other things in the tunnel (it was his first time to this aquarium). You can see our reflections and the green light from my camera in the glass at one part in the video as I tried to look up to capture the sharks and other creatures. You can hear me get all excited at the end because the sea turtle is out in the open, and I turn off the camera so I can get still shots of the turtle. The lighting isn't that great in this, it was somewhat dark in there, but hope you like!

That sounds like fun! I'd like to do that. But put me with the stingrays, they're my favorite. :D
