Ripley's Aquarium of the Smokies (Gatlinburg, TN)

I love aquariums, and my favorite aquarium that I've visited is Ripley's Aquarium of the Smokies.  It's peaceful, interesting, full of fun family features, and generally offers a great day out.  This is one of the best attractions in Gatlinburg (other than the beautiful landscape).

T.G.I. Friday's (Gatlinburg, TN)

The Smoky Mountains are a beautiful area, and the National Park and surrounding towns are a popular tourist spot.  One of the main touristy towns near The Smokies is Gatlinburg.  One of the restaurants in Gatlinburg's is a branch of the restaurant chain T.G.I. Friday's.

In my experience, the restaurant is easily accessible and fairly family friendly.  The food is edible but not particularly good, and kind of pricey.  Also, although the service is better than I anticipated, the restaurant itself is in need of a good cleaning.
