Chattanooga

We found Nemo!
Cute little seahorse hanging out being photogenic.
The awesome Tennessee Aquarium.  One of the best aquariums I've ever been to.
The Tennessee aquarium offers everything expected at a top of the line aquarium, but it also has a butterfly exhibit, and it's the best part. 

Imagine an indoor rainforest filled with hundreds of jewel-colored butterflies that hover over flowers and sip nectar from feeding stations. These exotic and beautiful butterflies delight the senses, and visitors to the Butterfly Garden. Visitors are able to walk around the garden and watch as hundreds of butterflies dance around you. If your lucky one may land on you for a short rest. It alone makes the aquarium worth the visit.
Condos adjacent to the Tennessee River facing the aquarium with the beautiful smokies providing the backdrop.

Overall we had a nice stay. The staff member who checked us in appeared to be new and needed to get approval to allow us to check in about 30 minutes early, and they weren’t able to answer some basic parking questions. That said, everyone we encountered at the morning breakfast was terrific—very ...
