@Grizzly Hound The Ocean Voyager wasn't just my favorite exhibit there but it became my favorite exhibit period - passing Shedd's Oceanarium for that spot.
@snowleopard Funny you say that because I plan on saying in the first video how much I like the setup. I prefer Shedd's and Georgia's free roaming galleries over Newport's single pathway that I'm so used to.
Although for the most part I loved Georgia Aquarium's displays, this central atrium sticks in my head as pretty horrible. Loud, generic, brash, coloured lights - it's like a shopping mall or an airport, not a zoological facility. Not my cup of tea at all.
Luckily, the actual animal areas are generally-speaking much better.
I was just told, after aquarium officials came across my intro video that mentioned the Mall complaint, they are working on changing this. Not with the way the galleries are placed but with the aesthetics of this Plaza.
