Chattanooga, TN

 We crossed the Tennessee River for the 2nd time in TN, approaching Chattanooga.  That river runs north, south, east and west in its ramblings - amazing!  Beautiful river.
Rode the steepest incline railway in the world on Lookout Mountain - 78% grade.

SEE ROCK CITY !!!  We didn't go into the whole thing but caught this glimpse of the lookout point.  With good imagination, they say you can see 7 states from there.

Loved downtown Chattanooga - lots of water parks all over.  This one under a highway, the steps to the Aquarium from the riverfront.  Waterfall over all those steps - the kids love it!

Interesting - back-in angled parking.

Bridge in the background used to be for traffic, now just a pedestrian/bike bridge - one of the longest in the world.


View from the river on our Duck Tour - look closely to see the guy rock climbing across the face of the cliff.

The incredible aquarium - in both buildings.


Like their BBQ sauce?  They just might give you a complimentary bottle!  Sure made Gregg happy!

Another thing to make Gregg happy - finding Honest Charley, the place he mail ordered car things from many years ago...


Things to make Sally happy - amazing aquarium!  These are Weedy Sea Dragons. 
 
Beautiful place for Gregg to hang out while Sally devours the aquarium exhibits.



Cool place for a kid to get right into a huge fish tank...


Loved this town of Chattanooga!
