This past Friday, I took an excursion to Jazz Journeys at the Georgia Aquarium. On Friday nights this summer, the aquarium is featuring a multitude of jazz artists. With a five-dollar cocktail in hand, I enjoyed the jazzy ministrations of Francine Reed

and visited the exhibits. Because the concert goes from 7 to 9:30 and the aquarium stays open to 10, there’s ample time to enjoy the music and take in the aquarium. If you’re really organized, you can also order dinner packages for two. It’s a great way to spend an evening. Also, I must say that God must have been having a good old time when he was creating fish and other water creatures. Whales that seem to have a perpetual smile, seahorses, sharks with hammers and saws for heads, fantastical sea dragons, and butt-ugly catfish. I don’t know if it was the music or sangria, but I swear I also saw a fish that looked like the late great James Brown with a pompadour. Jazzy fish fun.
